This ISO 15552 compliant double-acting cylinder features a 200 mm piston diameter and 320 mm strok...This ISO 15552 compliant double-acting cylinder features a 200 mm piston diameter and 320 mm stroke, delivering a theoretical force of 18850 N at 6 bar when advancing. It includes adjustable pneumatic cushioning at both ends, enhancing performance and longevity. The robust tie rod design ensures durability, while the magnetic piston allows for precise position sensing. This cylinder is suitable for various industrial applications requiring reliable and efficient pneumatic actuation. The manufacturer series is DSBG-200-320-PPVA-N3.
This Festo DSBG-200-320-PPVA-N3 pneumatic cylinder is designed for industrial automation professionals requiring robust and reliable linear motion. Its key benefit lies in its high theoretical force output (18850 N at 6 bar) and durable construction, suitable for demanding tasks. A caveat to consider is that optimal performance relies on proper air supply and integration into a pneumatic system.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
What is the maximum operating pressure for this cylinder?
The Festo DSBG-200-320-PPVA-N3 is rated for a maximum operating pressure of 10 bar.
Can this cylinder be used with lubricated air?
This cylinder is designed for non-lubricated air operation, simplifying maintenance and preventing contamination of the air system.
How do I adjust the pneumatic cushioning?
Cushioning is adjusted using the screws located at each end of the cylinder. Turning the screw inwards typically increases cushioning (slows down), while turning it outwards decreases it.
What is the theoretical force when retracting?
The theoretical retracting force will be lower than the advancing force due to the rod displacement. Calculate it using the area of the annulus (area of piston minus area of rod) times the pressure.
What type of sensors can be used with the magnetic piston?
Standard inductive proximity sensors designed for pneumatic cylinders with magnetic pistons can be used. Refer to Festo's sensor compatibility guide for specific models.
What does ISO 15552 compliance mean?
ISO 15552 is an international standard that defines the dimensions and specifications for pneumatic cylinders, ensuring interchangeability and compatibility with components from different manufacturers.
Troubleshooting
Cylinder not moving smoothly or making excessive noise.
Check and adjust the pneumatic cushioning at both ends. Ensure the air supply is clean and within the operating pressure range. Verify that the load is within the cylinder's force capacity.
Cylinder extends or retracts partially.
Verify sufficient air pressure and flow. Check for internal leaks or blockages within the cylinder or air lines. Ensure the cushioning is not set too restrictively.
Position sensor not detecting the piston.
Confirm the sensor is correctly aligned with the cylinder's stroke and compatible with the magnetic piston. Check sensor wiring and power supply.
Air leaks from cylinder seals.
Inspect seals for damage or wear. If leaks persist, the cylinder may require servicing or replacement.
Pros and Cons
Pros
High force output for demanding applications.
Durable construction for long service life.
Adjustable cushioning for smooth operation.
Magnetic piston for easy position detection.
Standard ISO 15552 compliance for broad integration.
Cons
Requires a properly regulated compressed air supply.
Not suitable for environments with excessive dust or corrosive elements without appropriate protection.
Installation requires knowledge of pneumatic systems and safety protocols.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Ensure the cylinder is securely mounted according to the machine design.
Connect compressed air lines to the appropriate ports (typically labeled). Use clean, dry, and lubricated air if required by the system, though this model is designed for non-lubricated air.
Install position sensors if automation feedback is needed, aligning them with the magnetic piston's travel.
Gradually adjust the pneumatic cushioning screws at both ends to achieve the desired deceleration profile.
Compatibility:
The cylinder adheres to ISO 15552, ensuring compatibility with standard mounting brackets, sensors, and pneumatic fittings.
Requires a compressed air supply capable of delivering sufficient pressure and flow rate for the intended load (rated for up to 10 bar, but provides 18850 N at 6 bar).
Care:
Regularly inspect air connections for leaks.
Monitor cushioning effectiveness and readjust if necessary.
Ensure the air supply remains free of contaminants (water, oil, particles) to prevent internal damage.
Keep the external surfaces clean using a damp cloth.
