Product Information
Full details
The Festo DSNU-50-200-P-A is a double-acting round cylinder designed for industrial automation engineers and maintenance technicians who require precise, repeatable linear motion. Its primary strength lies in its 50 mm piston diameter and 200 mm stroke length, which deliver a robust theoretical force of 1178.1 N at 6 bar of pressure. While this cylinder offers high operational reliability and smooth performance, it is important to note that the elastic cushioning is non-adjustable, making it best suited for standard speed applications rather than high-impact, high-velocity processes.

FAQs
What is the force output at 6 bar?
The cylinder provides a theoretical advancing force of 1178.1 N.
Can I adjust the cushioning on this model?
No, this specific model (DSNU-50-200-P-A) features fixed elastic cushioning.
What is the stroke length of this cylinder?
This model features a 200 mm stroke.
Does this cylinder require lubrication?
It is designed to be low-maintenance, but for best performance in continuous high-speed operation, the air supply should be lightly lubricated.
Is this a single or double-acting cylinder?
This is a double-acting cylinder, meaning it uses compressed air for both the advance and return strokes.
Troubleshooting
The cylinder is sluggish or moves unevenly.
Check air supply pressure and ensure the air lines are not obstructed. Inspect for air leaks around the cylinder end caps.
Excessive vibration or noise at the end of the stroke.
Reduce the cycle speed using flow control valves to ensure the piston does not hit the end caps too aggressively.
Visible air leaking from the piston rod seal.
The internal seals have likely worn out; the cylinder may require a seal kit replacement or complete unit replacement.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- High force output suitable for industrial heavy-duty tasks
- Consistent and reliable linear motion
- Durable construction ensures long service life
- Integrated cushioning reduces mechanical shock
Cons
- Cushioning is non-adjustable, limiting fine-tuning for extreme speeds
- Requires clean, lubricated compressed air for peak performance
- Fixed mounting dimensions require careful planning for installation
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Ensure the system is supplied with clean, filtered, and regulated compressed air. Before full integration, check that the air pressure does not exceed the manufacturer's rated specification to prevent seal blowouts. Mounting should be rigid to prevent misalignment, which can lead to side-loading and premature cylinder failure. For maintenance, check for air leaks at the ports periodically and ensure the piston rod is kept free of debris, which could scratch the seal and cause internal pressure loss.
