Product Information

Full details

This Festo DSBG-160-50-PPVA-N3 pneumatic cylinder is designed for industrial automation applications requiring robust and reliable linear motion. It's ideal for engineers and technicians integrating automated systems. Its key benefit is the precise control and durability offered by its double-acting, ISO 15552 compliant design with adjustable cushioning. A potential caveat is the need for a compressed air supply and appropriate control valves.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the maximum operating pressure?

The maximum operating pressure for this cylinder is 10 bar.

What temperature range can this cylinder operate in?

It can operate within a temperature range of -20°C to +80°C.

How do I adjust the pneumatic cushioning?

Use the adjustable cushioning screws located at each end of the cylinder. Turn them clockwise to increase cushioning (slow down deceleration) and counter-clockwise to decrease cushioning (speed up deceleration).

Is this cylinder suitable for outdoor use?

While robust, it is designed for industrial environments. Extended outdoor exposure without proper protection may affect longevity due to environmental factors. Operating temperature range must be maintained.

What does ISO 15552 compliant mean?

It means the cylinder conforms to the international standard for pneumatic actuators, ensuring dimensional compatibility with mounting accessories and other components from different manufacturers adhering to the same standard.

Can I use this cylinder without a magnetic piston sensor?

Yes, the cylinder will function as a standard pneumatic actuator. However, you will not have integrated position feedback capabilities without an external sensor detecting the magnetic piston.

Troubleshooting

Cylinder not extending or retracting

Verify air supply pressure is adequate (up to 10 bar). Check air line connections for leaks and ensure correct port activation. Confirm control valve is functioning properly.

Jerky or inconsistent motion

Adjust the pneumatic cushioning at both ends. Ensure the air supply is clean and free of moisture or contaminants. Check for any mechanical binding in the guided motion.

Cylinder stops short of full stroke

Ensure no obstructions along the stroke path. Check for internal leaks or issues with the control valve. Verify air pressure is sufficient.

Position sensor not detecting piston

Ensure the magnetic piston is present and functioning. Check that the external sensor is correctly positioned and compatible with the magnetic field.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High durability and robustness for industrial use.
  • Adjustable cushioning for reduced shock and noise.
  • ISO 15552 standard ensures easy integration.
  • Magnetic piston allows for simple position detection.
  • Versatile mounting options with a wide range of accessories.

Cons

  • Requires a compressed air source and control system.
  • Adjustable cushioning requires initial setup and tuning.
  • Not suitable for vacuum applications.
  • Specific mounting hardware may need to be purchased separately.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Mount the cylinder using appropriate accessories compatible with the ISO 15552 standard. Ensure air lines are correctly connected to the ports for extension and retraction. Adjust the pneumatic cushioning screws at both ends to achieve the desired deceleration rate based on the operating speed and load. Fine-tuning may be required after initial operation.

Compatibility: This cylinder is compatible with standard pneumatic control valves and compressed air systems meeting industrial standards. The ISO 15552 compliance ensures compatibility with a wide array of mounting brackets, clevises, and rod end attachments. It operates with clean, dry, or lubricated compressed air within the specified pressure range.

Care: Regularly inspect air connections for leaks. Keep the cylinder exterior clean to prevent debris ingress. Periodically check and adjust cushioning settings if operating conditions change. Ensure the operating temperature remains within the specified range (-20°C to +80°C).
