Hygienic design, the use of corrosion-resistant materials and initial lubrication with our food-grade grease makes the cylinders suitable for food industry applications. The cylinders are particularly suitable for lighter duties in the packaging, food and textile industries.
Adjustable pneumatic cushioning permits greater loads and higher operating speeds, making the cylinders suitable for more demanding duties The P1A range of cylinders is intended for use in a wide range of applications. Careful design and high quality manufacture throughout ensure long service life and optimum economy. Mounting dimensions fully in accordance with ISO 6432 and CETOP RP52P greatly simplifies installation and world-wide interchangeability.

■ Double acting buffer cushioning version cylinders are available in bores of 10,12,16,20 and 25mm, with standard stroke lengths of 10 to 320mm.
■ Single-acting cylinders with spring return in the retract direction are available in all bores and with stroke lengths up to 80mm.
■ Single-acting cylinders with spring return in the advance direction are available in 16, 20 and 25mm bore sizes and with stroke lengths up to 80mm.

Adjustable pneumatic cushioning permits greater loads and higher operating speeds, making the cylinders suitable for more demanding duties. These cylinders are available in bores of 16, 20 and 25mm with standard stroke lengths from 20 to 500mm. P1A mini ISO 6432 cylinders are available in several standard variants, such as non-standard stroke length, extended piston rods, through piston rods and high temperature versions all supported by a complete range of sensors and mountings.

■ P1A with rod guidance modules
The P1A mini ISO 6432 cylinders can be equipped with an external rod guidance module that when fitted prevents the piston from rotating enabling the cylinder to resist turning moments and greater transverse forces. These are available with plain bearings as U style or linear ball bearings as H style. The body of the rod guidance has pre-drilled mounting holes and is connected to the piston rod by means of a flexo coupling that help relieve the build-up of stress in the cylinder. P1A cylinders with rod guidance modules are available with bores from 12 to 25mm, and stroke lengths up to 250mm.

General Technical Data:
• International standards : complies with ISO 6432
• Bore Sizes :  Ø10, Ø12, Ø16, Ø20 and Ø25mm
• Stroke Length : 5 to 1000mm
• Versions :
     - double acting
     - double acting with through rod
      - single Acting Spring Return
      - single Acting Spring Advance
• Cushioning :
     - rubber buffer fixed Ø12, Ø16, Ø20 and Ø25mm 
     - adjustable pneumatic Ø16, Ø20 and Ø25mm 
• Position sensing : cylinders in standard temperature design are fitted with a magnet for proximity position sensing. An optional bracket securely fastens anywhere along the cylinder barrel allowing the mounting of electronic type sensors or reed switches that can be supplied with either flying lead or cable plug connector. The high temperature version does not have a magnetic ring in the piston and therefore cannot be used with sensors.
• Installation : a wide range of surface treated and stainless steel mountings are available. 
• Mounting position : any 

Operating and Environmental Data: 
• Operating Medium : for best possible service life and trouble-free operation dry, filtered compressed air to ISO 8573-1:2010 quality class 3.4.3 should be used. This specifies a dew point of +3°C for indoor operation (a lower dew point should be selected for minus temperature operation and we recommend the use of an inline dryer) and is in line with the air quality from most standard compressors with a standard filter. 
• Operating Pressure : 10 Bar Maximum
• Operating Temperature :
     - standard  temperature -20°C to +80°C   
     - high temperature -10°C to +150°C (Ø12, Ø16, Ø20 and Ø25mm)   
     - outer seals in fluorocarbon - FPM (fluorocarbon rubber)  -20°C to +80°C
• Pre-lubricated : further lubrication is normally not necessary. If additional lubrication is introduced it must be continued. 
• Corrosion Resistance : high resistance to corrosion and chemicals.
