| Cylinder reference weight |
3687 g; supplied SAU catalogue reference, not historical SU mass or measured shipping weight |
Supplied SAU catalogue reference mass: 617.7 g non-stroke mass + 872 mm × 3.52 g/mm, rounded to the nearest gram. The H seal mass difference is not independently specified. Mounting, rod-end and other accessory masses and packaging are excluded; this is not a measured shipping weight. Actual supplied mass prevails.
Features and Operation
Airtac enterprise-standard single-rod double-acting cylinder. The compact profiled bidirectional piston seal retains oil. The aluminium barrel has no external tie rods, provides corrosion resistance and includes direct sensor grooves; magnetic sensing requires the S piston option. Adjust the pneumatic cushioning and select mounting for the moving load and end positions. The catalogue describes a shorter same-bore SAU body than ISO15552 cylinders; this is a length comparison, not an ISO conformity or universal interchangeability claim. The catalogue lists specially selected high-temperature sealing material for 150 °C service. Confirm the actual H-cylinder specification and duty; this does not establish a complete H temperature range or raise any attached component rating.
External and Mounting Dimensions

Rod ends use M12×1.25. MK is floating-joint angular compensation; PH is spherical-joint angle. Reference joint masses are not included in cylinder weight. Material categories do not identify every subcomponent or finish. Check alignment and mating threads; these M10-and-larger joints are outside the separate M6-and-smaller radial-offset note.
Numbered drawing parts are not complete service ordering codes. Confirm the full model, seal, production revision and genuine replacement number before ordering seal, guide, cover or adjustment-mechanism service parts.
Force and Application
| Parameter |
Value |
| Ideal extending / retracting pressure area |
1256.64 / 1055.58 mm² |
| Calculated extending / retracting force at 0.5 MPa |
628.32 / 527.79 N |
| Calculation boundary |
Force (N) = pressure area (mm²) × pressure (MPa), before friction, exhaust backpressure and dynamic losses; not a guaranteed payload. |
| General load-ratio guidance |
≤0.7 static/low-speed; ≤0.5 at 50–500 mm/s; ≤0.3 above 500 mm/s within the 800 mm/s cylinder limit. These are selection guides, not payload guarantees. |
Installation and Maintenance
Align the load and avoid side force, impact and rod-surface damage. Use independent guidance where needed. Guard moving parts; isolate air and electricity, vent pressure and secure loads before service or adjustment. Provide safe responses to supply loss and restart.
Keep piping clean and remove moisture and contamination. Protect against dust, droplets, oil and weld spatter; avoid freezing. Factory lubrication normally permits oil-free use; if oil is added, continue additive-free ISO VG32 turbine oil. Mist guide: ≤25 mg/m³ and 0.5–5 drops/1000 L; size the lubricator for actual flow.
Test without load, then increase load gradually. Start speed controls closed and open slowly; meter-out commonly stabilizes motion. Adjust cushioning for actual moving mass and speed without forcing the screw. The 21 mm nominal cushion reference is not additional travel or guaranteed effective deceleration distance for every short stroke.
Check mechanical stops, valve flow and exhaust backpressure. High kinetic energy may require separately engineered deceleration. Allow space for the extending rod and attached load.
PT1/4 piping-thread tightening reference: 6–8 N·m for the specified mating connection. This is not a G/NPT thread, sensor fastener or speed-control adjustment-cap torque. Match tube dimensions and threads; keep sealing debris out of air ports.

Limits and conditions |
| DMSG / EMSG two-wire |
10–28 V DC; 2.5–100 mA load; ≤2.8 W; internal current ≤3 mA, residual voltage ≤3.5 V, leakage ≤0.06 mA. |
| DMSG NPN/PNP three-wire |
5–30 V DC; switching ≤30 V and ≤200 mA; ≤6 W; internal current ≤5 mA, residual voltage ≤0.7 V, leakage ≤0.01 mA. |
| CMSG reed two-wire |
5–240 V AC/DC; meet both ≤100 mA and ≤10 W. Standard residual ≤2.5 V at DC 100 mA. H has no indicator or residual voltage specified. No internal/leakage current or protection circuit. |
| Frequency / shock / protection |
DMSG/EMSG ≤1000 Hz; CMSG ≤200 Hz; all 50 G shock reference. DMSG/EMSG have polarity/transient protection; EMSG additionally has overheat protection. |
| Temperature |
Ordinary sensors −10–70 °C; CMSG-H −10–125 °C. Apply actual cylinder, sensor, cable and connector limits together; sensor H does not raise the cylinder rating or establish an unspecified H-cylinder range. |
Direct leads 020/030/050/100 are 2/3/5/10 m. M08/M12 are M8/M12 male connectors with 0.5 m lead; M08010/020/030 and M12010/020/030 have 1/2/3 m leads. Lead length is independent of cylinder stroke. Blank output is two-wire; N/P are NPN/PNP.
Standard/A05 DMSG and EMSG are IP64; direct W and A06 versions are IP68. All CMSG are IP64. A05 is high-flex robot cable; A06 is oil-resistant high-flex cable, both with a 19 mm minimum bend radius. Industry versions are two-wire direct-lead only. W electronic quick-connector, CMSG-W, CMSG-A06 and A05-CMSG-H variants are not listed.
Female M8/M12 and B two-wire/C three-wire leads must match the sensor connector and circuit. Two-wire pins: 1 brown (+), 4 blue (−), 3 unused. Three-wire: 1 brown (+), 3 blue (−), 4 black output. Direct leads need no quick mating cable. Independent lead temperature, IP and voltage ratings are not stated; do not transfer sensor-body ratings to the entire assembly.
For three-wire NPN connect the load between positive and black output; for PNP between black output and negative. Check residual voltage and leakage against the actual PLC input and series/parallel circuit.
Use G-profile DMSG/CMSG/EMSG sensors only on the S magnetic SAU configuration. Loosen the retaining screw without letting it protrude below the sensor base, slide the sensor into its matching cylinder groove, position it in the middle of its switching range and tighten; verify clearance and switching. No SC tie-rod holder is specified for this direct-groove mounting.
Recommended sensor fastening torque is 0.15–0.20 N·m; maximum 0.25 N·m. This is sensor fastening, not the cylinder mounting-bolt or air-port torque.
Connect the load before power and follow the selected two-wire or NPN/PNP three-wire diagram. Two-wire sensors require a series load; do not connect them directly across the supply. Maintain insulation and separate signal wiring from power or high-voltage lines.
Avoid repeated cable flexing or pulling, falling impacts, strong magnetic fields, iron chips, large current surges and rapid temperature changes. Do not treat IP68 as permission for permanent immersion. Periodically check mounting, cable condition and sensing operation; use appropriate protection against water, oil and welding spatter.

Separate options; no included-kit or stock promise. Connect both SAU40 working ports using G1/4 fittings and the specified seal; check insertion depth, wrench/rotation clearance, flow and tube loading. PT/G/NPT are not interchangeable. G joints need the correct face seal and mating surface. The M12×1.25 rod thread is not an air port.
Use suitable soft nylon/PU tubing: exact OD, plus ID for compression. Where offered: D=black, blank=grey, -M=miniature. -S identifies specified stainless-304 parts, not an all-stainless assembly. GPHF has male RA and extra female RB, both G1/4; connect or seal RB as designed. RB is not a tube socket. Tees/Y/cross/distributors must not bridge chambers or unrelated controls.
Push-in fittings, direct/threadless controls and listed silencers: 0–1 MPa, −20–70 °C. GBPC: 0–0.9 MPa, 0–150 °C; SAU path 0.15–0.9 MPa. GBKC/GBB/GBD/GBZ: 0–1 MPa, 0–150 °C; SAU path 0.15–1 MPa. Use the actual H-cylinder temperature rating and every component limit; no complete H-system range is inferred. Obey lower valve/tube/sensor limits; component vacuum data do not rate the cylinder assembly.
Install threads with the body hex, not the locking nut; insert tubing fully before tightening. GBKC0806-02 accepts 8 × 5.5 or 8 × 6 mm; 8 × 5 mm needs GBKC0805-02. GBB/GBD use one thread standard: BB male–male, BD male–female; other ends are labelled in the table. Match its gender/size and flow; no cross-thread conversion. GBZ closes permitted unused auxiliary ports only, never active cylinder ports.
At the cylinder, A meters thread→tube exhaust (meter-out), with free reverse supply; B meters tube→cylinder supply (meter-in). A is usual for double action; B needs a designed meter-in circuit. Start closed, open slowly; closed leakage is allowed, so these are not shutoffs. GPTL caps on 1/4-port variants: adjustment reference: 0.16 N·m, not pipe-thread torque. Never force caps/end stops. PSA/PSA-S/GPSA are metric tube-to-tube controls, no A/B suffixes; match both ODs and the body check/throttle symbol. GPSA does not mean G thread.
Silencers: separate valve exhaust only. Match its actual thread, flow and backpressure; not cylinder-port fittings, inlet filters or shutoffs. GBESL adjusts backpressure. PPA6/8/10/12 use plain metric stems in matching sockets: POM body/cap, PE filter, 0–1 MPa, −20–70 °C; 25 dB at 0.5 MPa is a catalog test, not an onsite noise promise. PPA has no D or thread suffix. The referenced GBSL catalog test is 13 dB at 0.5 MPa; do not apply PT noise figures to G variants.
ASC20008G: separate two-female-G1/4-port inline control; needs male fittings. Follow P/A and the check/throttle symbol. 0.05–0.95 MPa, −20–70 °C and 40 µm-or-finer filtered air; SAU path 0.15–0.95 MPa before lower limits. Rated flow does not guarantee cylinder speed.
GAFR20008SG,GAFR30008SG: separate upstream G1/4 filter/regulator, 40 µm element, PC bowl, differential/manual drain, bracket and round gauge, no reverse-flow valve. Inlet ≤1 MPa, setting 0.15–0.9 MPa, −5–70 °C non-freezing. Respect IN/OUT, flow/pressure loss, condensate, bowl environment and all downstream limits; not a cylinder fitting or vacuum regulator.
US98A/UE95A examples: blue 100 m coils, not supplied cut lengths. Rated 1 MPa at 23 °C, temperature derating required: US98A −20–70 °C, UE95A −40–70 °C. Match OD/ID, bend radius, routing and flow; thinner low-pressure tubes are not equivalent. Tube sizes are component examples; calculate actual SAU flow independently.
Separate Directional-Valve and Tube Examples
4A G: single control 4A11006G, 4A21006G, 4A21008G; double control 4A12006G, 4A22006G, 4A22008G. 4V G: single control 4V11006BG, 4V21006BG, 4V21008BG; double control 4V12006BG, 4V22006BG, 4V22008BG. 5V PT: single control 5V11006B050, 5V21006B050, 5V21008B050; double control 5V12006B050, 5V22006B050, 5V22008B050. All listed B versions use DC24V. 4V has DIN entry and internal pilot; 5V has 0.5 m leads (050) and internal pilot. 4A has single/double pneumatic control, external pilot supply and no coil. 4A configurations 20008: single control has one PT1/8 pilot port, double has two; confirm pilot threads on G versions.
10006 (G: 4A/4V; PT: 5V): P/A/B/R/S 1/8; 20006 (G: 4A/4V; PT: 5V): P/A/B/R/S 1/8; 20008 (G: 4A/4V; PT: 5V): P 1/4, A/B 1/4, R/S 1/8. Port dimensions use the PT/G thread assigned above; choose each endpoint independently. These separately piped valve examples are not direct cylinder fittings or included parts. Operating range: 0.15–0.8 MPa, −20 to 70 °C, 40 µm filtration. Confirm flow, load, pilot supply and exhaust backpressure; apply all lower component limits.
PA6 nylon: 3 MPa at 23 °C, -10 to 70 °C; PA6060040100MBU: 6 × 4 mm, minimum bend radius 45 mm. PA12 nylon: 2 MPa at 23 °C, -40 to 70 °C; PA12060040100MBU: 6 × 4 mm, minimum bend radius 35 mm. UN54D flame-resistant tubing: 1 MPa at 23 °C, -20 to 70 °C; UN54D060040100MBU: 6 × 4 mm, minimum bend radius 12 mm; UN54D080050100MBU: 8 × 5 mm, minimum bend radius 18 mm; UN54D100065100MBU: 10 × 6.5 mm, minimum bend radius 20 mm. All are blue 100 m coils; derate pressure above 23 °C. UN54D flame-resistant does not mean fireproof. Match exact OD, ID, tube compatibility and bend radius; PA6/PA12 sizes 8 × 5 and 10 × 6.5 mm are not established here.
M5 and 4M NAMUR references have their own valve connections and are not direct SAU mounting accessories. No unverified direct adapter or complete kit is specified.
SAU has two working air ports. Select circuit flow using its full-bore extension area and annular retraction area, actual load, travel, piping losses and exhaust backpressure. A general bore-based selection chart does not guarantee an achieved SAU speed or establish a directly mounted valve assembly.
