Pharmaceutical Industry ADVU-16-25-A-P-A 156597 Festo External Thread Pneumatic Cylinder 16mm Bore 25mm Stroke Double-Acting M5 Port Magnetic Piston Compact ISO 6432

Product Description:

The Festo ADVU-16 is a compact pneumatic cylinder designed for double-acting operation. It features a 16 mm bore size and includes an integrated magnetic piston, which enables precise position sensing. This makes it highly suitable for applications that demand accurate monitoring of the cylinder’s position.

Equipped with elastic cushioning rings at both ends, known as P-type cushioning, the ADVU-16 ensures smooth and noise-reduced movements during operation. The cylinder is offered with standard stroke lengths ranging from 5 mm up to 40 mm, catering to various application requirements.

Customers can choose between different piston rod configurations: either an internal thread version designated as -P-A, or an external thread version marked as -A-P-A. The operating pressure range of this cylinder spans from 1.0 to 10 bar, providing flexibility in pneumatic systems.

Overall, the Festo ADVU-16 is an excellent choice for automation solutions where space is limited but reliable position feedback and durable performance are essential.

Features:

This pneumatic cylinder boasts an ultra-compact design, reducing installation space by up to 50% compared to cylinders adhering to the ISO 15552 standard. Its minimized footprint makes it an ideal choice for machinery with limited space, allowing for tighter and more efficient machine layouts.

Featuring double-acting functionality, the cylinder delivers force during both the forward and return strokes. This ensures consistent, manageable motion in both directions, enhancing precision and control during operation.

The integrated magnetic piston allows for non-contact position detection via proximity switches. These sensors can be installed or replaced without needing any mechanical adjustments, facilitating easy maintenance and reliable position monitoring.

Equipped with flexible cushioning rings and plates at both ends, the elastic cushioning system reduces impact energy effectively. This design minimizes vibration and noise at the cylinder's end positions, promoting smoother and quieter operation.

Constructed from robust materials, the cylinder incorporates a wrought aluminium alloy barrel and end caps, a high-alloy stainless steel piston rod, and dynamic seals made from NBR/TPE-U (PU). It meets Corrosion Resistance Class (CRC) 2 standards, making it well-suited for demanding industrial environments.

The cylinder offers versatile installation options thanks to through-holes on the barrel and a comprehensive range of mounting accessories. This flexibility allows it to be mounted securely in virtually any position.

To accommodate different load attachments and application requirements, two piston rod thread configurations are available: an internal thread (‑P‑A) and an external thread (‑A‑P‑A). This choice allows for optimal adaptability to various operational scenarios.
