Technical Details of DSNU-12-15-P-A (1908255)
The DSNU-12-15-P-A is a compact round cylinder built for reliability in tight industrial spaces. It comes with a 12 mm piston diameter and a 15 mm stroke, offering a balance between compactness and sufficient motion range. Operating as a double-acting cylinder, it uses compressed air for both extension and retraction, delivering smooth and repeatable linear motion.
The cylinder is built to ISO 6432 and CETOP RP 52 P standards and is equipped with elastic cushioning on both ends to reduce end-position impact. The piston rod (M6 thread) is made of high-alloy stainless steel, paired with an anodised aluminium cover and RoHS-compliant seals. It works effectively at ambient temperatures from -20°C to +80°C and offers force outputs of 67.9 N (advance) and 50.9 N (return) at 6 bar pressure. The M5 pneumatic port, cleanroom rating (Class 6), and compatibility with proximity switches make it suitable for both standard and sensitive environments.
Applications of DSNU-12-70-P-A in Industrial Setups
The DSNU-12-70-P-A is ideal for operations where precise yet moderate-force linear motion is required. For example, in assembly automation, it helps in light part pushing, pressing, or aligning components. On conveyor systems, it can actuate diverters or stop cylinders with accurate control. In laboratory automation and test benches, its cleanroom suitability and compact size make it an excellent choice for positioning or repetitive motion applications.
What makes it especially practical is its proximity switch compatibility, allowing easy integration into sensor-based systems for feedback and control. Engineers can monitor piston positions and sync operations through PLCs. Its robust yet lightweight construction also makes it useful in packaging machines, where repeated motion and minimal downtime are critical.
Whether you are a junior technician or an experienced maintenance head, the DSNU-12 series offers a dependable, maintenance-friendly solution. The DSNU-12-70-P-A model, in particular, delivers the right balance of speed, force, and accuracy for light to medium-duty automation applications.
