Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation of the Festo Compact Cylinder is simplified by its ISO 21287 standard mounting dimensions, which allow for a variety of standardized accessories. The unit utilizes a G 1/8 pneumatic connection, requiring compatible industry-standard fittings. The female piston rod thread allows for quick attachment of clevises or rod eyes depending on your linkage requirements. To ensure longevity, keep the compressed air supply clean and dry, as particulate matter or moisture can compromise the internal seals. Periodically inspect the elastic cushioning rings for signs of wear and ensure that the cylinder is mounted with adequate clearance to allow for the 10 mm stroke movement without interference.
