P-Series cylinders offer ACS adjustable cushioning and magnetic pistons. Cylinders are pre-lubricated at the factory and operate under normal conditions without additional lubrication. However, using a lubricator will extend the life of these products. The adequate sizing of a pneumatic cylinder depends on the force required, and the applied pressure. Refer to page one for theoretical force output detail. Load and Buckling Applications requiring the movement of heavy loads should be supported and guided to prevent excessive side load. In this case, it is recommended to use an external guide system or incorporate a stop tube into the cylinder design. When a long stroke length is required, care must be taken to ensure the rod length is within the limits for prevention of rod buckling. To determine the limits of the cylinder in your application, follow these steps: 1) Select the "Extend Force" from the "Maximum Effective Length" chart. 2) Select the stroke factor from the "Cylinder Mounting Diagram" chart. 3) To obtain the effective length "L", mulitiply the cylinder stroke by the appropriate stroke factor obtained in step 2. If the calculated effective "L" length exceeds L values in the "Maximum Effective Length" chart for the given extend force and rod diameter, the cylinder may require a larger rod diameter and/or a stop tube or external guides. In this case, please contact application engineering for further design consultation. 01/19 en us 1.5.186.04
