Forecasting demand for even further weight reduction, improved performance and sleek aesthetics, we evolved the MA Series into the 2MA Series. This robust design has been the backbone of the alumi-num cylinder market for the past 13 years. 2MA Series innovations included new use of aluminum for endcaps and pistons, an ex-
Parker, the pioneer in the design and development of the aluminum NFPA cylinder, continues it innova-tion leadership with the release of the new 3MA Series.
Parker Hannifin has always been at the forefront of cylinder design and application. Over 30 years ago, we perceived the need for a light-weight, low-cost air cylinder with great performance. This led to the invention of the MA Series, which included breakthroughs such as
REDEFINING MOTION
ternally-removable bronze gland and a unique extruded profile cylinder body. The result is a lighter weight, lower cost, higher performance package that pleased the eye.
Doing business with Parker means that you always have the latest in technology to meet rapidly chang-ing market and application demands. The 3MA Series represents the next generation solution for NFPA cylin-der applications.

REDEFINING MOTION in Cylinder Design
• Heads and caps are designed with a flexible mounting platform that allows almost every NFPA mount to be fastened as an accessory.
• Cylinder with mountings attached at the factory are avail-able, or you may choose to install mountings from separate kits - it’s your choice.
• Rod lock feature utilizes the 3MA standard head for assembly.
• Use of lighter composites as a qualified substitute for heavier met-als, combined with die cast endcap design, have reduced the average weight of our cylinder by 15%.
All moving components are designed for low friction. Low fric-tion results in less wear, and we accomplish this with zero leakage.
• Rounded-lip rod seal and piston seals glide on the lubricant film instead of wiping it away.
• Self-lubricating carboxylated nitrile material is used to maximize seal life.
• Composite rod bearing and piston have an extremely low coefficient of friction and are for-mulated for high speed, low wear applications.
• Rod material is hard chrome plated and polished to an extremely fine finish.
• Nitrile end seals on the smooth bore of the cylinder body, the optimal sealing surface.

• Anodized, high-pressure die-cast aluminum heads and caps include all necessary features for flexible mounting.
• Full-flow ports, combined with the low inertia piston rod assembly, minimize cylinder response time.
• Composite inserts allow us to offer adjustable cushions at no additional cost.
• Individual flow geometry for each bore size results in effective cush-ioning that is easy to adjust and set.
• Floating check-seal design combines the sealing capability of a lipseal with check valve action for quick stroke reversal.
• Cushioning performance is outstanding due to symmetrical piston geometry and long-lasting urethane seals.
Key components leverage Parker’s aerospace experience with compos-ites for industrial applications.
• Tough and impact resistant, bearing-grade materials are used in manufacturing all composite parts.
• Extensive testing confirms the composite as a qualified alternative to aluminum and bronze for high service life in rigorous installations.
• Quicker cylinder response times and potentially lower freight costs are possible through the use of composite materials which sig-nificantly reduce inertia of moving parts and total cylinder weight.
• Additional advantages include cushions as a standard feature, noise reduction without the need for bumpers, and lower friction than other materials.
REDEFINING MOTION in Cylinder Design
• Anodized aluminum alloy end-caps and cylinder body for high strength, corrosion resistance and low friction.
• Zinc plated steel endcap fasteners for tough environments.
• Case hardened, hard chrome plated and polished carbon steel piston rod for damage resistance, long rod seal life and low friction.
• Outboard “Molythane” urethane rod wiper to remove external debris and adherents from the piston rod during the entire stroke.
• Unique, extruded-profile cylinder body offers integrated sensor grooves to minimize sensor installation time, maximize sensor protection and eliminate the need for brackets.
• All Global and Mini-Global sensors are accepted by six grooves on three sides that run the entire length of the cylinder body.
• Magnetic piston ring included as standard; the cylinder is already prepared for your position sensing needs.

• Rod Locks – when precise load holding and emergency-stop situ-ations arise, the 3MAJ (3MA with Rod Lock) is the perfect addition for your safety solution. In addi-tion, our rod locks are IP67 rated, exceed NEMA 4X and classified as EN 954 Category 1 for robust applications.
• Recycle – all 3MA solid mate-rial content is 100% recyclable. Aluminum (endcaps, cylinder body) and steel (piston rod, fas-teners) are the two most recycled primary metals in the world. The composite parts are classified as , which means they can also be recycled. Finally, the nitrile and urethane seals can be recycled via common commercial means.
The 3MA is designed with goals beyond performance. Driving these efforts are requirements, regulations and other activities that attempt to make the world a better, safer place in which to live and work. Here are some of the results:
• CE Approved and UL Listed Sensors – all of our Global and Mini-Global Sensors are ap-proved and listed.
• Reduced Noise Pollution – the innovative composite piston and endcap inserts reduce noise by 12 dB from the typical aluminum cylinder design. For further noise reduction by as much as 20 dB, specify bumper piston seals.
Although the 3MA is perfectly suited for many applications, there is an occasional need for something different. To accommodate these demands, we designed the highly-versatile 4MA Series cylinder. The 4MA will provide the same fit as the 3MA, but its construction offers more flexibility for modification.
General 4MA features include:
• Available in 1½" – 8" bore sizes• Machined head and cap from ex-
truded aluminum bar stock, black anodized for corrosion resistance
• Externally removable bronze alloy gland/bearing for easy maintenance
• Same piston rod assembly options and cylinder body as the 3MA
• Oversize rods• RoHS compliant
The 4MA offers these additional options:
• Combination with the following as standard offerings:
– Parker HB slide packages to become guided cylinders (HBC/HBT/HBR/HBB)
– Parker “B” Series air valves as an air cylinder/valve combina-tion unit (ACVB Option)
– Bolt-On Linear Transducer for continuous piston rod position sensing (LPSO Option)
– Rod lock (4MAJ Series)
• Custom designs for endcaps, pistons, piston rods, mounts, etc.
• Porting options
• Gland options, including the HI LOAD design for side load conditions and metallic rod wiper design
• High temperature (to +250ºF) and low temperature (to -50ºF) construction
• Hydraulic service to 400 PSIG (4ML)
• And many, many more. Please see page 14 for a detailed list.
For complete information of the 4MA Series, including how to order, please see pages 9 to 43.
• RoHS Compliant – you can feel safe using the 3MA cylinder worldwide. All 3MA materials are 100% RoHS (Restriction of Haz-ardous Substances) compliant.
• ATEX, NAUMUR, CSA, Weld Immune Applications – we offer sensors and power supplies that function in applications requiring ATEX , NAMUR (intrinsically-safe), CSA or weld field immune specification. Most of these sen-sors also carry approval and listing.

Advanced ManufacturingCylinders, by nature, are custom-ized products. Whether it is some-thing basic, such as stroke length, or something more complex, such as a special head, raw material and basic parts must be procured and manufactured into components for configured cylinders.
Organizing cylinder production and assembly requires some degree of planning. To do so, without sacri-ficing customer service, requires a sharp focus on advanced manufac-turing processes.
Lean Manufacturing PrinciplesParker Hannifin has utilized Lean Manufacturing techniques for many years, even before it was called by name. Cellular Manufacturing, Value Stream Mapping, Kaizen events, Kanban, One-Piece Flow and other influences are pervasive in our manufacturing processes. We now follow Lean Implementation to focus all aspects of our operation on the same goals for customer service.
REDEFINING MOTION in Cylinder Technology
3MA Series cylinders are manufac-tured in Akron, Ohio; Portland, Oregon; and Milton, Ontario. Location is a significant part of our customer service model. We believe that customers value a domestic presence, in different time zones, for many reasons. A few include:
• Quick Delivery – standard lead time is a few days, with the capa-bility of shipping some cylinder configurations within 24 hours. We deliver to your request.
• Made-To-Order – we are able to quickly manufacture customized products without the need to carry fixed finished goods inventory. This minimizes time-to-customer and cost-to-customer concerns.
• Late-Day Orders – a West Coast presence creates an order time ad-vantage of three hours, which may be instrumental in keeping you on schedule.
• Non-Standard Designs – since 50% of applications require cylin-ders that are not catalog-standard, we organized our entire culture for flexibility. Our manufacturing processes are prepared to accom-modate non-standard designs with minimal lead-time adjustments.
• Early Morning Service – an Eastern US presence establishes timely customer service for the entire country.
• Risk Management – the absence of international risks when dealing with suppliers from other conti-nents can help you sleep at night. Our goal is to offer you the best product, on time, with your finan-cial concerns in mind.

PortsNPTF ports are standard. Other port styles available.
Piston AssemblyHigh strength steel fastener or piston rod thread connects the piston to the rod and is secured in place with anaerobic adhesive.
PistonManufactured from tough, impact-resistant, bearing-grade materials, the composite piston provides excellent wear resistance. Other advantages include noise reduction without the need for bumpers and lower friction than other materials. Aluminum piston with wear band (shown) is available for bumper piston seals, hydraulic service and other options.
Piston SealsCarboxylated nitrile rounded-lip piston seals combine low friction with leak-free service and long service life. Optional bumper piston seals provide additional noise reduction and smooth end-of-stroke deceleration.Endcap Fasteners
Zinc plated steel endcap fasteners for tough environments. Stainless steel is available as an option.
Rod SealCarboxylated nitrile rounded-lip rod seal combines low friction with leak-free service and long service life.
Rod WiperOutboard urethane rod wiper protects the cylinder by removing external debris and adherents from the piston rod during the entire stroke.
Piston RodStandard case-hardened (50-64 Rc), hard chrome plated and polished carbon steel piston rod for reliable performance, long rod seal life and low friction. Grades of stainless steel are available as options.
Rod Gland/BearingThreaded bronze rod gland is externally removable, without cylinder disassembly, for easy maintenance.Machinedflatspermit the use of common tools for removal and installation. Options include HI LOAD design for side load conditions and metallic wiper design for extremely tough rod contaminant/adherent applications.
Heads and CapsHigh-strength aluminum heads and caps are designed with themostflexiblemountingplatform. TEF mount is standard. Using our proprietary extrusion,wecanoffercustomization of the endcaps for unique designs, including extra ports, duplex, tandem and many special mountings. Anodized for corrosion resistance.
Adjustable Cushions Available
Cylinder BodyExtrudedaluminumprofilecylinderbodyoffersintegratedsensor grooves to minimize sensor installation time, maximize sensor protection and eliminate the need for brackets. Grooves readily accept both Global and Mini-Global Sensors. Anodized and bright-dipped for corrosion resistance, maximum seal life and lower friction.
Magnetic Piston RingIncluded as a standard feature for use with a variety of sensors.

Catalog AU03-0929/NA11/8" Bore 3MA Cylinder – Features
Ports�/8" NPTF ports are standard.
Piston AssemblyAluminum piston with nylon wear band increases service life and eliminates metal-to-metal contact. Anaerobic adhesive is used to permanently lock and seal the piston to the rod.
Piston SealsNitrile piston lipseals combine low friction with leak-free service and long service life. Optional bumper piston seals provide additional noise reduction and smooth end-of-stroke deceleration.Rod Seal
Inboard nitrile rod lipseal combines low friction with leak-free service and long service life.Rod Bearing
This composite rod bearing is designed for side load. Wear resistance far exceeds commonly-used bronze rod bearings.
Rod WiperOutboard urethane rod wiper protects the cylinder by removing external debris and adherents from the piston rod during the entire stroke.
Piston RodHard chrome plated and polished carbon steel piston rod for reliable performance, long rod seal life and low friction. Grades of stainless steel are available as options.
Endcap FastenersSteel endcap fasteners (and tie rods for some mounts) for heavy-duty use. Stainless steel is available as an option.
Heads and CapsSteel alloy heads and caps are black zinc-plated for corrosion resistance
Adjustable Cushion Spacers Available
Cylinder BodyExtrudedaluminumprofilecylinderbodyoffersintegratedsensor grooves to minimize sensor installation time, maximize sensor protection and eliminate the need for brackets. Grooves readily accept Mini-Global Sensors. Anodized and bright-dipped for corrosion resistance, maximum seal life and lower friction. Some mounts require anodized aluminum tube and steel tie rod construction.
Magnetic Piston RingIncluded as a standard feature for use with a variety of sensors.
For a complete list of 3MA options, please see pages 46 and 50.

Catalog AU03-0929/NARod Lock Features and Specifications
3MAJ and 4MAJ Series CylindersNFPA Non-Lube Pneumatic Cylinder with Manual Override Rod Lock
Bolt-On Modularity – As a true cylinder accessory, the rod lock may be removed withoutaffectingthebasecylinder(1-1/2"to5" bores). The same, great cylinder remains intact, allowing the rod lock to bolt-on with minimal length change. This modularity can be extremely important for special installations or while servicing the cylinder. Rod locks for 6" - 8" bores and all Style DD mounts (NFPA MT4) are fastened to the base cylinder using the base cylinder’s tie rods. See drawings below.
Aesthetics – we have designed our rod locks with the same anodized aluminum extrusion used for the cylinder endcaps, resulting in a virtually seamless assembly. Inaddition,wefocusedeveryefforttocreatethe shortest overall package, minimizing the need for customers to accommodate significantlylongercylinderlengths.
Functionality – With a holding force corresponding to �00 PSI on the cap end for nearly every bore size, the rod lock can be used for a variety of holding applications. The manual override shaft allows occasional release of the piston rod and automatically returns the rod lock back to the locked state when it is released and the appropriate air signal is absent. The front pilotdiametermeetsNFPAspecificationsand facilitates proper installation of the cylinder to customer equipment or cylinder accessories.
Ease of Order Entry – To order the 3MA or 4MA Series with the rod lock option, just change the product series to 3MAJ or 4MAJ (the “J” is required for the rod lock option). See model code on page 62 for additional information.
Rod lock versions of the 3MA Series (the 3MAJ) and 4MA Series (the 4MAJ) are available. These rod lock version provides precise load holding with virtually zero backlash and features high accuracy for demanding applications. The rod lock is a spring-activated type with air pressure release and clamps the piston rod to lock it into position. In the absence of an appropriate air signal, full holding force is applied to the piston rod. When a 60 PSI (or greater) air signal is present, the locking device is released. All rod locks include a manual override shaft to free the rod lock without air pressure during non-production activities.
Some key benefits of the 3MAJ and 4MAJ Series Cylinders:

Catalog AU03-0929/NARod Lock Features and Specifications
ConnectionThe signal air for the locking device can be obtained directly from a main air supply, or from the air supply serving the valve that controls the cylinder itself. For controlled ON/OFF operation of the locking device, a separate quick-venting valve is used.
The piston rod should not be moving when the locking device is activated. The locking device is not intended to brake a movement in repeated sequences.
NOTE: The 3MAJ and 4MAJ is not intended for use in water service applications, or in environments that have high humiditylevelsand/orsplashingfluidspresent.
NOTE: Exhaust air from the rod lock can be piped away when there are demands for a contaminant-free environment.
Operation at pressures lower than 60 PSI may lead to inadvertent engagement of the rod lock device.
Other Cylinder and Rod Lock Features:• The 3MAJ and 4MAJ rod lock will operate in both
directions, engaging with the same holding force.• The 3MAJ and 4MAJ can be mounted in any
position.• Piston rod rotation is not allowed when the rod lock
is engaged (not intended for torsional braking).• Rod lock is suitable for infrequent dynamic braking
(emergency stops). Since the 3MAJ and 4MAJ rod lock is designed for static applications, repeated dynamic stops will cause rod and/or bearing wear and reduce holding forces.
• The rated holding force corresponds to static load conditions. If the rated value is exceeded, slipping and other problems may occur.
• If personal safety is required, an unrelated, redundant safety system is recommended.
Sample Pneumatic Circuit
�. Lock valve must be maintained energized during cylinder motion, otherwise rod lock is engaged and cylinder valve shifts to mid position.
2. Cylinder valve must be maintained energized during extend or retract. Also keep energized at end of stroke until change of direction is desired.
3. Mid position of 5/3 Cylinder valve may be pressurized outlets if the combination of pressure loadonthecylinderandinertiaeffectsoftheattached load do not exceed the holding force rating of the rod lock device, including allowance for wear.
4. Do not use cylinder lines for any logic functions – pressure levels vary too much.

Principles of OperationThe measuring element (“waveguide”), consists of a special nickel-alloy tube.
A copper conductor is introduced through the length of this tube. The start of measurement is initiated by a short current pulse.
Thiscurrentgeneratesacircularmagneticfieldwhichrotatesaround the waveguide. A permanent magnet at the point of measurement is used as the marker element, whose lines offieldrunatrightanglestotheelectromagneticfield.Intheareaonthewaveguidewherethetwofieldsintersect,amagneto-strictiveeffectcausesanelasticdeformationofthewaveguide, which propagates along the wave guide in both directions in the form of a mechanical wave.
The propagation velocity of this wave in the waveguide is 2830m/s,andisnearlyinsensitivetoenvironmentaleffects(e.g., temperature, shock, contamination).
The component of the wave which reaches the far end of the waveguide is damped there, whereas the component which arrives at the signal converter is changed into an electrical
signalbyreversingthemagnetostrictiveeffect.Thewavetravel time from its point of origin to the signal converter is directly proportional to the distance between the permanent magnet and the signal converter. A time measurement then allows the distance to be determined with extremely high accuracy.
DesignThe transducers are made to the same safety and reliability standards for use in the harshest conditions:• The electronics unit is compactly designed using SMD
technology. The boards are protected in a space-saving, rugged aluminum extruded housing.
• The waveguide is protected in the extruded aluminum housing.
QualityEach and every transducer undergoes a specially designed, computer-controlled testing procedure which includes �00% checkingofallspecifieddata.

Check Seal CushionsFor Increased Productivity and Maximum PerformanceThe check seal cushion is new and different from ordinary cushion designs. It combines the sealing capabilities of a lipseal for efficient capture of air to effectively cushion and to provide check valve action for quick stroke reversal.
The design also provides “floating cushions” to assure cushion repeatability and long life. At the start of the stroke in each direction, the check valve design allows full flow to piston face with a minimum pressure drop for a maximum power stroke.
Additional benefits of the new check seal cushions are increased productivity and top performance for faster cycle time, minimum wear, easy adjustment and low pressure drop.
The basic cushion design is available at both ends without change in envelope or mounting dimensions. A captive cushion adjusting needle is supplied for easy, precise adjustment on all bore sizes.
BumpersImpact dampening conventional bumpers can be provided on one or both sides of the piston with a 1/4" stroke loss per bumper. This style of bumper is ideal for applications subjected to high speeds where cycle time may discourage the use of cushions.Available in 1-1/2" - 4" bore sizes for 3MA, 4MA, 4ML, 3MAJ and 4MAJ Series cylinders.

HI LOAD Gland AssemblyApplications with inherent side load require a slide package for maximum service life. In some cases, there may be limitations to the size or expense of these additional components. One possible solution may be the use of the optional HI LOAD gland assembly that incorporates a high strength composite bearing for radial load conditions. Extensive testing showed an approximate 50% increase in service life for general applications. Please note that each application is unique and results may vary. Includes seal options for standard, high and low temperature applications with air (4MA) or hydraulic (4ML) service.

Bumper Seal OptionImpact dampening Bumper Seals are now optional on all 3MA, 4MA, 3MAJ and 4MAJ cylinders from �-�/8" to 5" bore. The Bumper Seal piston combines the features of low-friction, rounded lipseals and impact-damping bumpers to provide reduced noise and smoother end-of-stroke deceleration. At pressure greater than 80 PSI, the compressible Buna Nitrile or Fluorocarbon Bumper Sealhasminimaleffectonstrokeloss.Whenspecified,BumperSealswillbesuppliedonbothends of the piston, eliminating the need to specify head end or cap end only.

Bumper Seals Reduce NoiseThespecialprofileoftheBumperSealpreventsthe piston from noisily banging into the end cap at the end of stroke. Independent testing shows that the Bumper Seal, when combined with cushions, willabsorbthefinalpistoninertiaandreducethestroke noise by as much as 20 dB. The Sound Level Comparison graph illustrates the noise-reducing effectsoftheBumperSealpistonwhencombinedwith cushions.
Impact noise was recorded at a distance of 3 feet from the front of the cylinder, inside a semi-anechoic chamber. Cylinders were operating at 95 PSI.
Sound Level ComparisonThe accompanying chart depicts typical amounts of overall stroke loss incurred at various system pressures. The amount of stroke loss may vary slightly due to design tolerances of seal size, variance in seal durometer and compression set associated with cylinder wear. To determine the stroke loss at either end of the cylinder, divide the values by two.

Blocking valves are designed for precise, repeatable stopping of moving cylinders or to maintain the position of a cylinder in the event of an air pilot signal loss. Blockers are used for positioning and jogging purposes.
A blocking valve has a spring loaded poppet which normally preventsflowthroughthevalveinbothdirections.Whenanairpilot control signal (see pilot pressure chart below for required pilot signal pressure) is applied to the top of the valve, the poppetopensandallowsthevalvetoflowinbothdirectionslikeastandardfitting.Whenthepilotsignalisremoved,thepoppet springs shut and prevents air from entering or leaving cylinder, thus stopping cylinder travel.
Blocking valves are designed to be installed directly into actuator ports (up to 5" bore cylinders).

Caution– Use an ampmeter to test reed sensor current. Testing devices such
as incandescent light bulbs may subject the reed sensor to high in-rush loads.
– NOTE: When checking an unpowered reed sensor for continuity with adigitalohmmetertheresistancereadingwillchangefrominfinitytoa very large resistance (2 M ohm) when the sensor is activated. This is due to the presence of a diode in the reed sensor.

– Use relay coils for reed sensor contact protection.– The operation of some �20 VAC PLC’s (especially some older Allen-
Bradley PLC’s) can overload the reed sensor. The sensor may fail to release after the piston magnet has passed. This problem may be corrected by the placement of a 700 to �K OHM resistor between the sensor and the PLC input terminal. Consult the manufacturer of the PLC for appropriate circuit.
– Sensors with long wire leads (greater than �5 feet) can cause capacitance build-up and sticking will result. Attach a resistor in series with the reed sensor (the resistor should be installed as close as possible to the sensor). The resistor should be selected such that R (ohms) >E/0.3.

EPS-7 & EPS-6 Sensors CLS-1 & 4 Sensors
Series and Parallel WiringWhen Parker EPS-5, 6 or 7 proximity sensors are used as inputs to programmable controllers, the preferred practice is to connect each sensor to a separate input channel of the PC. Series or parallel operations may then be accomplished by the internal PC programming.
Parker EPS-5, 6 or 7 sensors may be hard wired for series operation, but the voltage drop through the sensors (see specifications)mustnotreducetheavailablevoltagebelowwhat is needed to actuate the load.
Parker EPS-5, 6 or 7 sensors may also be hard wired for parallel operation. However, the leakage current of each sensor will pass through the load. The total of all leakage currents must not exceed the current required to actuate the load. In most cases, the use of two or more EPS-5, 6 or 7 sensors in parallel will require the use of a bypass (shunt) resistor.

Operating Fluids and Temperature RangeFluidpower cylinders are designed for use with pressurized air, hydraulicoilandfireresistantfluids,insomecasesspecialsealsarerequired.
Standard Seals (class 1)Class � seals are what is normally provided in a cylinder unless otherwisespecified.Theyareintendedforusewithfluidssuchas:air, nitrogen, mineral base hydraulic oil or MIL-H-5606 within the tem-perature range of -�0°F (-23°C) to +�65°F (+74°C). Generally they are nitrile except for piston rod seals in hydraulic cylinders. However the individual seals may be nitrile (Buna-N) enhanced polyurethane, polymyte,P.T.F.E.orfilledP.T.F.E.
Water Base Fluid Seals (class 2)Generallyclass2sealsareintendedforusewithwaterbasefluidswithin the temperature of -�0°F (-23°C) to +�65°F (+74°C) except for High Water Content Fluids (H.W.C.F.) in which case Class 6 seals shouldbeused.Typicalwaterbasefluidsare:Water,Water-Glycol,Water-in Emulsion, Houghto-Safe 27, 620, 5040, Mobil Pyrogard D, Shell Irus 905, Ucon Hydrolube J-4. These seals are nitrile. Lipseal will have polymyte or P.T.F.E. back-up washer when required. O-rings will have nitrile back-up washers when required.
Ethylene Propylene (E.P.R.) Seals (class 3)Class 3 seals are intended for use with some Phosphate Ester Fluids between the temperatures of -�0°F (-23°C) to +�30°F (+54°C). TypicalfluidscompatiblewithE.P.R.sealsareSkydrol500and700.E.P.R. are Ethylene Propylene. Lipseals will have a P.T.F.E. back-up washer when required. O-rings will have EPR back-up washers when required. Note: E.P.R. seals are not compatible with mineral base hydraulicoilorgreases.Evenlimitedexposuretothesefluidswillcause severe swelling. P.T.F.E. back-up washer may not be suitable when used in a radiation environment.
Low Temperature Nitrile Seals (class 4)Class 4 seals are intended for low temperature service with the same typeoffluidsasusedwithClass1sealswithinthetemperaturerangeof -50°F (-46°C) to +�50°F (+66°C). Lipseals will have leather, poly-myte or P.T.F.E. back-up washers when required. O-rings will have nitrile back-up washers when required.
Fluorocarbon Seals (class 5)Class 5 seals are intended for elevated temperature service or for some Phosphate Ester Fluids such as Houghto-Safe �0�0, �055, ��20; Fyrquel �50, 220, 300, 350; Mobile Pyrogard 42, 43, 53, and 55.Note:Inaddition,class5sealscanbeusedwithfluidslistedbelow under standard service. However, they are not compatible with Phosphate Ester Fluids such as Skydrols. Class 5 seals can operate with a temperature range of -�0°F (-23°C) to +250°F (+�2�°C). Class 5 seals may be operated to +400°F (+204°C) with limited service life, but please consult the Actuator Division for possible cylinder material changes. For temperatures above +250°F (+�20°C) the cylinder must be manufactured with non-studded piston rod and thread and a pinned piston to rod connection. Class 5 Lipseals will have P.T.F.E. back-upwasherswhenrequired.O-ringswillhavefluorocarbon back-up when required.
WarningThe piston rod stud and the piston rod to piston threaded connec-tions are secured with an anaerobic adhesive which is temperature sensitive.CylindersspecifiedwithClass5sealsareassembledwith anaerobic adhesive having a maximum temperature rating of +250°F(+74°C).Cylindersspecifiedwithallothersealcompoundsare assembled with anaerobic adhesive having a maximum operating temperature rating +�65°F (+74°C). These temperature limitations are necessary to prevent the possible loosening of the threaded connections. Cylinders originally manufactured with class � seals (Nitrile) that will be exposed to ambient temperatures above +�65°F (+74°C)mustbemodifiedforhighertemperatureservice.Contactthefactory immediately and arrange for the piston to rod and the stud to piston rod connections to be properly re-assembled to withstand the higher temperature service.
Lipseal PistonsUnder most conditions lipseals provide the best all around service for pneumatic applications. Lipseals with a back-up washer are often used for hydraulic applications when virtually zero static leakage is required. Lipseals will function properly in these applications when used in conjunction with moderate hydraulic pressures.
Water ServiceFor pressures up to 400 PSIG, 4ML series cylinders can be modi-fiedtomakethemmoresuitableforusewithwaterastheoperatingmedium. Chrome plated �7-4 PH stainless steel piston rod is recom-mended to inhibit corrosion.

Non-Lubricated Air Cylinders3MA and 4MA air cylinders with Class � seals are recommended for non-lubricated air service. These cylinders are originally lubricated at the factory and, with the rounded lipseal design, typically do not require any additional lubrication for most applications. Please note that the use of air-line oil lubricators will wash away the original grease lubricant, so it must be continued until the cylinder is serviced with the appropriate grease lubricant.

Standard Double-Acting Cylinders Power stroke is in both directions and is used in the majority of applications.
Single-Acting Cylinders When thrust is needed in only one direction, a single-acting cylinder may be used. The inactive end is vented toatmospherethroughabreather/filterforpneumaticapplications, or vented to reservoir below the oil level in hydraulic application.
Double-Rod Cylinders Used when equal displacement is needed on both sides of the piston, or when it is mechanically advantageous to couple a load to each end. The extra end can be used to mount cams for operating limit switches, etc.
Spring Return, Single-Acting Cylinders Usually limited to very small, short stroke cylinders used for holding and clamping. The length needed to contain the return spring makes them undesirable when a long stroke is needed.
Ram Type, Single-Acting Cylinders Containingonlyonefluidchamber,thistypeofcylinderisusually mounted vertically. The weight of the load retracts the cylinder. They are sometimes know as “displacement cylinders”, and are practical for long strokes.
Telescoping Cylinders Available with up to 4 or 5 sleeves; collapsed length is shorter than standard cylinders. Available either single or double-acting, they are relatively expensive compared to standard cylinders.
Tandem Cylinders A tandem cylinder is made up of two cylinders mounted in line with pistons connected by a common piston rod and rod seals installed between the cylinders to permit double acting operation of each. Tandem cylinders allow increased output force when mounting width or height are restricted.
Duplex Cylinders A duplex cylinder is made up of two cylinders mounted in line with pistons not connected and with rod seals installed between the cylinders to permit double acting operation of each. Cylinders may be mounted with piston rod to piston (as shown) or back to back and are generally used to provide three position operation.

Push Force and Displacement
Free Air refers to normal atmospheric conditions of the air at sea level (�4.7 psi). Use above cu. ft. free air required data to compute CFM required from a compressor at 80 psi. Cu. ft. of free air required at other pressures can be calculated using formula below.
(P2 + �4.7) V2
V� = �4.7Where V� = Free air consumption per inch of stroke (cubic feet). V2 = Cubic feet displaced per inch of stroke. P2 = Gauge pressure required to move maximum load.

Many mounting styles are also available in double rod type cylinders. Refer to NFPA Std. B93.�5-�98� or Parker air or hydraulic cylinder catalogs for detailed description.
Standardmountingstylesforfluidpowercylindersfallintothreebasicgroups.The groups can be described as follows.

Group 3 – Straightlineforcetransferwithfixedmountswhichdonotabsorbforce on cylinder centerline.
Group 2 – Pivot force transfer with pivot mounts which absorb force on cylinder centerline and permit cylinder to change alignment in one plane.
Cylindermountingdirectlyaffectsthemaximumpressureatwhichthefluidpower cylinder can be used, and proper selection of mounting style will have a bearing on cylinder operation and service life. Whether the cylinder is used in thrust or tension, its stroke length, piston rod diameter and the method of connection to load also must be considered when selecting a mounting style.
Manypneumaticcylindersareofferedforusewithairpressureupto250psi.The industrial tie rod types, known as NFPA cylinders, with square heads and caps, plus mountings lend themselves to standardized mounts which are similar in appearance for air cylinders.
Straight Line Force Transfer (Group 1)Cylinderswithfixedmounts(Group1)whichabsorbtheforceoncenterlineareconsideredthebestforstraightlineforcetransfer.Tierodsextended,flangeorcenterline lug mounts are symmetrical and allow the thrust or tension forces of the piston rod to be distributed uniformly about the cylinder centerline. Mounting bolts are subjected to simple tension or simple shear without compound forces, and when properly installed damaging cylinder bearing sideloading is kept to a minimum.
Tie Rods Extended are considered to be of the centerline mount type. The cylinder tie rods are designed to withstand maximum rated internal pressure and can be extended and used to mount the cylinder at cap or head end. This often overlooked mounting will securely support the cylinder when bolted to the panel or machine member to which the cylinder is mounted. The torque value for the mounting nuts should be the same as the tie rod nut torque recommend-ed by the cylinder manufacturer. Cylinders are available with tie rod extended both ends. In such applications one end is used for mounting and the opposite end to support the cylinder or to attach other machine components.
Tie rod mount cylinders may be used to provide thrust or tension forces at full rated pressures.
Tie rods extended head end (Parker Style TB), cap end (Parker Style TC) or extended both ends (Parker Style TD) are readily available and fully dimensioned in Parker cylinder product catalogs.
Flange Mount cylinders are also considered to be centerline mount type and thus are among the best mounts for use on straight line force transfer applications. The machine designer has a choice of mounting styles at each end,suchasheadrectangularflange(StyleJ),headsquareflange(StyleJB),caprectangularflange(StyleH),andcapsquareflange(StyleHB).Selectionofaflangemountingstyledepends,inpart,uponwhetherthemajorforceappliedto the load will result in compression (push) or tension (pull) stresses of the cylinder piston rod. Cap end mounting styles are recommended for thrust loads (push), while head end mounting styles are recommended where the major load puts the piston rod in tension (pull).

Flange mounts are best used when end face is mounted against the machine support member. (Fig. 1) This is especially true where head rectangular flange type (Style J) is used with major load in tension. In this mode, the flange is not subjected to flexure or bending stresses, nor are the mounting bolts stressed to unusually high levels. The use of head rectangular flange (Style J) mount with major load in compression (see Fig. 2) is not recommended except on reduced pressure systems. The use of Style J mount in compression subjects the flange to bending and the mounting bolts to tension stresses, which could result in early fatigue failure. For applications where push forces require full rated system pressure, head square flange (Style JB) mounts are recommended.
Cap flange mounts are also best used when end face is mounted against the machine support member. The use of cap rectangular flange mount, Style H, is not recommended on applications where the major load is in tension (pull) except at reduced pressure.
For applications where pull forces involved require full rated system pressure, cap square flange, Style HB mounts are recommended.
Straight Line Force Transfer (Group 3)Side Mount cylinders are considered to be fixed mounts which do not absorb force on their centerline. Cylinders of this group have mounting lugs connected to the ends, and one style has side tapped holes for flush mounting. The plane of their mounting surfaces is not through the centerline of the cylinder, and for this reason side mounted cylinders produce a turning moment as the cylinder applies force to the load. (Fig. 4) This turning moment tends to rotate the cylinder about its mounting bolts. If the cylinder is not well secured to the machine member on which it is mounted or the load is not well-guided, this turning moment results in side load applied to rod gland and piston bearings. To avoid this problem, side mount cylinders should be specified with a stroke length at least equal to the bore size.
Shorter stroke, large bore cylinders tend to sway on their mountings when sub-jected to heavy loads, especially side end lug or side and angle mounts. (Fig. 5)
Side mount cylinders are available in several mounting styles, such as side lug (Style C), Side tapped (Style F or TEF), side end lug (Style G) and side end angle (Style CB). Of these, the side lug mount its the most popular and reliable, since the mounting lugs are part of the head and cap (4MA) or a structural steel bracket (3MA).
Side tapped mount is the choice when cylinders must be mounted side by side at minimum center-to-center distance. Another narrow side mount style is the side end lug mount which has lugs threaded to the tie rods. Thus the end lugs serve a dual function of holding the cylinder together and act as a means of mounting. This mounting style should be used only on medium- to light-duty applications, because the end lugs are subjected to compound stresses which could result in early failure.

The side end angle mount is also a narrow mount type, but is the weakest of the side mount styles. Its use should be limited to a maximum pressure of �50 psi and minimum stroke length of two times the bore size. For pressure rating of longer strokes, consult the cylinder manufacturer.
Consideration should also be given to design of the machine frame used to support cylinders non-centerline mount, since stronger members are often required to resist bending moments. (See Fig. 6)
Side mount cylinders depend wholly on the friction of their mounting surfaces in contact with the machine member to absorb the force produced. Thus the torque applied to the mounting bolts is an important consideration. Since the mounting bolts are the same diameter as the tie rods for a given cylinder, it is recommended that the torque applied to the mounting bolts be the same as the tie rod torque recommended by the cylinder manufacturer for the given bore size.
For heavy loads or high shock conditions, side mounted cylinders should be held in place to prevent shifting by keying or pinning. A shear key, consisting of a plate extending from side of cylinder, can be supplied on most cylinders. (Fig. 7) This method may be used where a keyway can be milled into a machine member. It serves to take up shear loads and also provides accurate alignment of the cylinder.
Side lug mounts are designed so as to allow dowel pins to be used to pin the cylinder to the machine member. Pins, when used, are installed on both sides of the cylinder but not at both ends. (See Fig. 8)
The use of a separate shear key is fairly common. It should be placed at the proper end of the cylinder to absorb the major load. (see Fig. 9)
Side mount cylinders should not be pinned or keyed at both ends. Changes in temperature and pressure under normal operating conditions cause the cylinder to increase (or decrease) in length from its installed length and therefore must be free to expand and contract. If pinned or keyed at both ends, the advantages of cylinder elasticity in absorbing high shock loads will be lost. (Fig. �0)
If high shock loads are the major consideration, the cylinder should be mounted and pins or shear key so located as to take full advantage of the cylinder’s inherent elasticity. For major shock load in tension, locate key at rear face of head or pin the head in place. For major shock load in thrust, pin cap in place or locate key at front face of cap.
Pivot Force Transfer (Group 2)Cylinders with pivot mounts which absorb force on centerline should be used on applications where the machine member to be moved travels in a curved path. There are two basic ways to mount a cylinder so that it will pivot during the work cycle: clevis or trunnion mounts, with variations of each. Pivot mount cylinders areavailableincapfixedclevis(StyleBB),capdetachableclevis(StyleBC),capspherical bearing (Style SB), head trunnion (Style D), cap trunnion (Style DB), and intermediatefixedtrunnion(StyleDD).
Pivot mount cylinders can be used on tension (pull) or thrust (push) applications at full rated pressure, except long stroke thrust cylinders are limited by piston rod column strength. See Piston Rod Selection Chart on page �34.
Clevis or single ear mounts are usually an integral part of the cylinder cap (though one style is detachable) and provide a single pivot point for mounting the cylinder. Apivotpinofproperlengthandofsufficientdiametertowithstandthemaximumshear load developed by the cylinder at rated operating pressure is included as a partoftheclevismountstyle.Thefixedclevismount,StyleBB,isthemostpopularof the pivot force transfer types and is used on applications where the piston rod end travels in a curved path in one plane. It can be used vertically or horizontally or any angle in between. On long stroke push applications it may be necessary to use a larger diameter piston rod to prevent buckling or stop tube to minimize side loading due to “jackknife” action of cylinder in extended position. Fixed clevis mount cylinders will not function well if the curved path of piston rod travel is other than one plane. Such an application results in misalignment and causes the gland and piston bearing surfaces to be subjected to unnecessary side loading. For applica-tions where the piston rod will travel in a path not more than 3° either side of the true plane motion, a cap spherical bearing mount is recommended. A spherical bearing rod eye should be used at rod end. Most spherical bearing mounts have limited pressure ratings. Consult cylinder manufacturer’s product catalog.

Trunnion mount cylinders are a second type of pivot mounts used on applica-tions where the piston rod travels in a curved path in one plane. Three styles are available–headtrunnion(StyleD),captrunnion(StyleDB)andintermediatefixedtrunnion (Style DD). Trunnion pins are designed for shear loads only and should not be subjected to bending stresses. Pillow blocks, rigidly mounted with bearings at least as long as the trunnion pins, should be used to minimize bending stresses. The support bearings should be mounted as close to the head, cap or intermediate trunnion shoulder faces as possible.

This is evident in data shown in piston rod selection chart on page �34. On head end trunnion mount, long stroke, cylinder applications consideration should be given to the overhanding weight at cap end of cylinder. To keep trunnion bearing loading within limits, stroke lengths should be not more than 5 times the bore size. If cylinder stroke is greater than 5 times the bore size and piston speed exceeds 35 ft/minute, consult factory.

Catalog AU03-0929/NAStroke Data & Adjusters, Tie Rod Supports
Stroke Data Parker cylinders are available in any practical stroke length. The following information should prove helpful to you in selecting the proper stroke for your cylinder application.Stroke Tolerances – Stroke length tolerances are required due to build-up of tolerances of piston, head, cap and cylinder body. Standard production stroke tolerances run +�/32" to -�/64" up to 20" stroke, +�/32" to -.020" for 2�" to 60" stroke and +�/32" to -�/32" for greater than 60" stroke. For closer toler-ances on stroke length, it is necessary to specify the required tolerance plus the operating pressure and temperature at which the cylinder will operate. Stroke tolerances smaller than .0�5" are not generally practical due to elasticity of cylinders. If machine design requires such close tolerances, use of a stroke adjuster (below) may achieve the desired result.
Tie Rod SupportsRigidity of Envelope – The pre-stressed tie rod construction of Parker cylinders has advantages in rigidity within the limits of the cylinder tube to resist buckling. For long stroke cylinders within practical limits, Parker provides exclusive TIE ROD SUPPORTS (see table below) which move the tie rod centerlines radially outward (US patent number 30��844).Standard tie rod supports are kept within the envelope dimensions of the head and cap, and generally do not interfere with mounting a long cylinder.

Stop Tubing (only 4MA, 4ML, 4MAJ with aluminum piston)Longstrokecylinders,fixedorpivotmounted,tendtojack-knife or buckle on push load applications, resulting in high bearing loading at the rod gland or piston. Use of a stop tube to lengthen the distance between the gland and piston when cylinder rod is fully extended is recommended to reduce these bearing loads. The drawing below shows stop tube constructionforfluidpowercylinders.Refertochartonnextpage to determine stop tube length.When specifying cylinders with long stroke and stop tube, be sure to call out the net stroke and the length of the stop tube. Machine design can be continued without delay by laying in a cylinder equivalent in length to the NET STROKE PLUS STOP TUBE LENGTH, which is referred to as GROSS STROKE.
Refer to the next page to determine stop tube length.

Recommended Mounting Styles for Rod End StrokeMaximum Stroke and Thrust Loads Connection Case Factor
Piston Rod — Stroke Selection Chart
How to Use the ChartThe selection of a piston rod for thrust (push) conditions requires the following steps:�. Determine the type of cylinder mounting style and rod end connection to be used.Thenconsultthechartbelowandfindthe“strokefactor”that corresponds to the conditions used.2. Using this stroke factor, determine the “basic length” from the equation:
The graph is prepared for standard rod extensions beyond the face of the gland retainers. For rod extensions greater than standard, add the increase to the stroke in arriving at the “basic length.”3. Find the load imposed for the thrust application by multiplying the full bore area of the cylinder by the system pressure.4. Enter the graph along the values of “basic length” and “thrust” as found above and note the point of intersection: A) The correct piston rod size is read from the diagonally curved line labeled “Rod Diameter” next above the point of intersection. B) The required length of stop tube is read from the right of the graph by following the shaded band in which the point of intersection lies.
C) If required length of stop tube is in the region labeled “consult factory,” submit the following information for an individual analysis: �) Cylinder mounting style. 2) Rod end connection and method of guiding load. 3) Bore, required stroke, length of rod extension (Dim. “LA or LAF”) if greater than standard, and series of cylinder used. 4) Mounting position of cylinder. (Note: If at an angle or vertical, specify direction of piston rod.) 5) Operating pressure of cylinder if limited to less than standard pressure for cylinder selected.
WarningPiston rods are not normally designed to absorb bending moments or loads which are perpendicular to the axis of piston rod motion. These additional loads can cause the piston rod end to fail. If these types of additional loads are expected to be imposed on the piston rods, their magnitude should be made known to our Engineering Department so they may be properly addressed. Additionally, cylinder users should always make sure that the piston rod is securely attached to the machine member.

Cushion ratings for Air Cylinders Only are described in Table b-2 and Graph b-1. To determine whether a cylinder will adequately stop a load without damage to the cylinder, the weight of the load (including the weight of the piston and the piston rod from Table b-1) and the maximum speed of the pistonrodmustfirstbedetermined.Oncethesetwofactorsare known, the Kinetic Energy Graph may be used. Enter the graph at its base for the value of weight determined, and project vertically to the required speed value. The point of intersection of these two lines will be the cushion rating num-ber required for the application.
To determine the total load to be moved, the weight of the piston and rod must be included.
Total Weight = weight of the piston and non-stroke rod length (column �) + weight of the rod per inch of stroke x the inches of stroke (Column 2) + the load to be moved.
Example: a 3-�/4" bore cylinder with a �" rod diameter and 25" of stroke; external load to be moved is 85 lbs. Total load to be moved is then (3.3 lbs) + (0.223 lbs/inch X 25 inches) + (85 lbs) for a total of 93.9 lbs.

Now refer to Table b-2 and find the cushion ratings, using bore size and rod diameter of the cylinder selected. If a simple circuit is used, with no meter out or speed control, use the “Rating with No Back Pressure” column values. If a meter out or speed control is to be used, use the “Rating with Back Pressure” column values. If the cushion rating found in Table b-2 below is greater than the number determined in
Air Cylinder Cushion Ratings TableTable b-2
Where: V = Cylinder volume, cu. in. L = Cylinder stroke length, in. D = Internal diameter of cylinder in. C = Air required, cfm ƒ = Number of strokes per minute
The air requirements for a double-acting cylinder is almost double that of a single-acting cylinder, except for the volume of the piston rod.
Graph b-1, then the cylinder will stop the load adequately. If the cushion rating in Table b-2 is smaller than the number found in Graph b-1, then a larger bore cylinder should be used. In those applications where back pressures exist in the exhaust lines, it is possible to exceed the cushion ratings shown in Table b-2. In these cases, consult the factory and advise the amount of back pressure.
Inch Based Cylinders Air Requirement Per Inch of Cylinder StrokeThe amount of air required to operate a cylinder is determined from the volume of the cylinder and its cycle in strokes per minute. This may be determined by use of the following formulae which apply to a single-acting cylinder.
V = 3.1416 L D2 C = ƒV 4 1728

In general, if the cushion rating number from the Kinetic Energy Graph is greater than the cushion rating for a particular bore and rod diameter, other and external means of decelerating the load will be necessary for proper cylinder application. Parker options include shock absorbers, Par-Check hydraulic resistance units and NuCushion bumpers.
Shock absorbers provide the greatest selection of decelerating products, and many can be incorporated into the cap end of cylinders for retract stroke deceleration. Additional product information can be found in Industrial Shock Absorbers Catalog AU08-1022/NA, and please contact the Actuator Division for cylinder modification details.

Theairflowrequirementsofacylinderintermsofcfmshouldnot be confused with compressor ratings which are given in terms of free air. If compressor capacity is involved in the consideration of cylinder air requirements it will be necessary to convert cfm values to free air values. This relationship variesfordifferentgaugepressures.
Thrust (pounds) = operating pressure x area of cylinder bore.
Note: That on the “out” stroke the air pressure is working on the entire piston area but on the “in ” stroke the air pressure works on the piston area less the rod area.Graph b-2 and b-3offerasimplemeanstoselectpneumaticcomponents for dynamic cylinder applications. It is only necessary to know the force required, the desired speed and the pressure which can be maintained at the inlet to the air preparation system. The graphs assume average conditions relative to air line sizes, system layout, friction, etc. At higher speeds, consider appropriate cushioning of cylinders.

The general procedure to follow when using these graphs is:
�. Select the appropriate graph depending upon the pressure which can be maintained to the system – Graph b-2 for �00 psig and Graph b-3 for 80 psig.
2. Determine appropriate cylinder bore. Values underneath the diagonal cylinder bore lines indicate the maximum recommended dynamic thrust developed while the cylinder is in motion. The data in the table at the bottom of each graph indicates available static force applications in which clamping force is a prime consideration in determing cylinder bore. Please reference table number b-3 and b-4 for approximate thrust developed at a given operating pressure.

3. Read upward on appropriate rod speed line to intersection with diagonal cylinder bore line. Read right from inter-section point to determine the required Cv of the valve and the speed controls. Both the valve and speed controls must have this Cv.
The following examples illustrate use of the graphs:
Example 1: Assume it is necessary to raise a 900-pound load 24 inches in two seconds. With 100 psig maintained at the inlet to the air preparation system, use Graph b-2. The 5-inch bore cylinder is capable of developing the required thrust while in motion. Since 24 inches in two seconds is equal to 60 fpm, read upward on the 60 fpm line to the inter-section of the 5-inch bore diagonal line. Reading to the right indicates that the required valve and speed controls must each have a Cv of over 1.9.
Example 2: Assume similar conditions to Example 1 except that only 80- psig will be available under flowing conditions. Using Graph b-3, a 6-inch bore cylinder is indicated. Read upward on the 60 fpm line to the intersection point. Interpola-tion of the right-hand scale indicates a required valve and speed control Cv of over 2.8.
Example 3: Assume similar conditions to Example 1 except that the load is being moved in a horizontal plane with a coefficient of sliding friction of 0.2. Only a 180-pound thrust is now required (900 lb. x 0.2). Consult Graph b-3. The 2½ inch bore cylinder will develop sufficient thrust, and at 60 fpm requires a valve and speed control Cv of about 0.5.

International Rod End ThreadsPiston rod threads to meet international requirements are available at extra cost. Parker cylinders can be supplied with Britishstandardfine(W)ormetric(M).Toorder,specifyinmodel number. For dimensions, consult factory.
Special Rod EndsIfarodendconfigurationotherthanthestandardstyles4,8 and 9 is required, such special rod ends can be provided. The designation “Style 3” is assigned to such specials and is incorporated in the cylinder model number. To order, specify “Style 3” and give desired dimensions for KK; A; LA, LAF, W, or WF. If otherwise special, send a dimensioned sketch.
Special Assemblies from Standard PartsEach dimensioned drawing in this catalog has position numbers shown on the end view to identify the four sides of the cylinder. These aid in communications and simplify the writingofspecificationsthatcoverchangesinportpositions,etc. Following are several suggested special assemblies that can be made up from standard parts.a) By calling out the position numbers for the desired locations for head and cap ports, many mounting styles can be assembled with ports located at 90° or �80° from standard. In such special assemblies, the cushion needle valves are also repositioned since their relation with the port position does not change.b) On mounting styles D, DB and DD, the cushion needle valves are provided only on the side position 3 on the head or cap which accommodates the mounting. The opposite head or cap can be rotated.c) Standardmountingsindifferentcombinationscanbe provided: for example Style J mounting on head end with Style C on the cap end. This would be made up from standard parts and would be designated Model (bore size) JC-4MAU�4A (stroke).
Single-Acting CylindersDouble-acting cylinders are supplied as standard. They can also be used a single-acting cylinders where air or hydraulic force is applied to only one side of the piston, with the load or other external forces acting to “return” the piston after pressure is exhausted.
Spring-Returned, Single-Acting Cylinders (only 4MA, 4MAJ with aluminum piston) – Single-acting, spring-returned models can also be provided. Load conditions and friction factors must be considered in supplying the proper spring for the application. In addition, it is necessary that information be supplied as to which side of the piston the spring should act upon. Specify “Spring to return piston rod” or “Spring to advance piston rod.”On longer stroke spring-returned cylinders, it is recom-mendedthattierodextensionsbespecifiedonthecylinderend in which the spring is located so that the cap or head againstwhichthespringisactingcanbe“backed-off”slowlyuntil compression of the spring is relieved. In such cases it shouldalsobespecifiedthatthetierodnutsbeweldedtothetie rods at the opposite end of the cylinder to further insure safe disassembly.Consult factory when ordering spring-returned cylinders.

WarningPiston rods are not normally designed to absorb bending moments or loads which are perpendicular to the axis of piston rod motion. These additional loads can cause the piston rod end to fail. If these types of additional loads are expected to be imposed on the piston rods, their magnitude should be made known to our Application Engineering Department so they may be properly addressed. Additionally, cylinder users should always make sure that the piston rod is securely attached to the machine member.On occasion cylinders are ordered with double rods. In some cases a stop is threaded onto one of the piston rods and used as an external stroke adjuster. This can cause a potential safety concern and can also lead to premature piston rod failure. The external stop will create a pinch point and the cylinder user should consider appropriate use of guards.Ifanexternalstopisnotparalleltothefinalcontactsurface it will place a bending moment on the piston rod. An externalstopwillalsonegatetheeffectofacushionandwillsubject the piston rod to an impact loading. These two (2) conditions can cause piston rod failure. The use of external stroke adjusters should be reviewed with our Application Engineering Department.

To determine extra length of piston rod required to accommodate boot, calculate:
BL = Stroke x LF + ��/8" BL + std LAF (male rod end) or WF (female rod end) dimension = length of piston rod to extend beyond the head face.
Note: Please compare the Boot OD size to the standard E dimension per desired cylinder series and bore. This may be critical for foot mounted cylinders.
Rod Boots are available for many other cylinder series. Please contact the Actuator Division for rod boot options.

Warning – The piston rod (or fastener) to piston threaded connection is secured with an anaerobic adhesive that is temperature sensitive. Cylinders are assembled with an anaerobic adhesive having a maximum operating temperature rating of +165°F (+74°C). This temperature limitation is necessary to prevent possible loosening of the threaded connections. Note: the maximum temperature rating for the 1½"-5" bore 3MA is +165°F (+74°C).

The piston and rod are securely locked together with anaerobic adhesive. This threaded connection should only be disassembled or reassembled by factory trained personnel.
NOTE: An extreme pressure lubricant (such as molybdlenum disulphate) should be used on the tie rod threads and bear-ing faces to reduce friction and tie rod twist.
Assemble both cap and head, complete with cylinder body O-Rings (sym. # 18), to each end of the cylinder body. Install end cap fasteners and tighten to appropriate torque, using opposite corner to corner torquing sequence.
In case of a “DD” – center trunnion – mounted cylinder, care must be taken to prevent binding the cylinder body when repositioning the trunnion collar. The proper method of assembling this type of cylinder is as follows:
After all the piston seals have been installed on the piston and the piston is in the cylinder body, fit the cap with its O-ring (sym. # 18) in position onto the cylinder body. Then “stud” into the trunnion collar the four tie rods that connect the cap to the trunnion collar. Hand tighten the four tie rod nuts at the cap. Distances from the inner face of the cap to the finished face of the trunnion collar should the be made equal at all four tie rods when all four tie rod nuts are in contact with the cap.
When the assembly is ready for final torquing, it may be necessary to adjust the tie rods at the cap when torquing the tie rods at the head in order to position the trunnion collar in its final position.
As a check, to be certain the trunnion mount will not interfere with cylinder operation, move the piston and rod assembly by hand to determine whether there is any tendency for the piston to bind at the spot where the trunnion collar is located. If any binding is noticeable, readjust the tie rods.
Parker Lube-A-Cyl... Is recommended for use in air cylinders during normal operation, and particularly when servicing and reassembling cylinders. It is a multi-purpose lubricant in grease form that provides lubrication without deteriorating effects on synthetic seals. It produces a thin film which will not blow out with exhaust air. It provides piston, rod and seal lubrication, and has excellent resistance to water and mechanical breakdown with temperature range of -10°F (-23°C) to +350°F (+177°C). Lube-A-Cyl is packaged in 1.5 oz. tubes, a sufficient quantity for average size air cylinder. One application should last for a period of 6 to 18 months depending upon service. Order by part number 0761630000.
Servicing the Piston Seals Disassemble the cylinder completely, remove the old seals and clean all the parts. The cylinder bore and piston should then be examined for evidence of scoring. (The light scratch marks usually present on both cylinder bore and piston will generally have no detrimental effects on the performance of the cylinder.)
Apply Parker “Lube-A-Cyl” to O.D. of piston and all grooves. Install one piston Lipseal (sym. # 11 or 12) in the groove nearest the rod. The two “lips” of this seal should face toward the rod end of the piston. Aluminum and 4" & 5" composite pistons only – If required, install magnetic ring (sym. #13) in the bottom of the middle groove and then install wear band (sym. #27) in the top of the middle groove.
Coat the inside of the cylinder body with Parker “Lube-A-Cyl” and insert the piston – cap end first – into the cylinder body as shown in detail “2” below.
Next, turn the cylinder body on its side and push the piston and rod assembly through the barrel just far enough to expose the groove for the second Lipseal. (See detail “3” below.) For aluminum pistons, be careful not to move the piston too far so as to expose the wear strip (sym. #27). If the piston should move too far, push the piston and rod assembly completely through the cylinder body and again start the piston from the original end. Now install the second Lipseal (sym. # 11 or 12) in the exposed groove with the two “lips” facing away from the rod and pull the piston into the cylinder body.

Servicing the rod gland (Cylinder disassembly is not required)Air leakage around the piston rod at the gland area will normally indicate a need to replace the gland cartridge.The Parker 4MA gland is a unique cartridge design. It is threaded into the cylinder head and all sizes are removable without disturbing the endcap fasteners.
To remove the old gland cartridge from the cylinder:�. Inspect the piston rod to be sure it is free of burrs or other foreignmaterialthatwouldpreventslidingtheglandoff the rod.2. Disconnect any attachments to the piston rod end thread.3. Lubricate the rod with Lube-A-Cyl (included in kit).4. Unscrew the gland cartridge from the head using the appropriate wrench (see D� dimension in catalog).5.Slidetheglandcartridgeoffthepistonrod.6. Verify that the gland-to-head o-ring (#45) is also removed from the head.
To install the new gland cartridge onto the cylinder:�. Re-inspect the surface of the piston rod for scratches, dents and other surface damage, and repair if necessary.2. Clean and lubricate the surface of the piston rod with Lube-A-Cyl (included in kit).3. Lubricate the rod wiper (#40), rod seal (#4�), o-ring (#45) and the inside surfaces of the gland cartridge with Lube-A-Cyl.4.

Warning – The piston rod (or fastener) to piston threaded connection is secured with an anaerobic adhesive that is temperature sensitive. Cylinders specified with all fluorocarbon seals are assembled with an anaerobic adhesive having a maximum operating temperature rating of +250°F (+121°C). Cylinders specified with other seal compounds are assembled with an anaerobic adhesive having a maximum operating temperature rating of +165°F (+74°C). These temperature limitations are necessary to prevent possible loosening of the threaded connections. Cylinders originally manufactured with Class 1 seals (Nitrile) that will be exposed to ambient temperatures above +165°F (+74°C) must be modified for higher temperature service. Contact the Actuator Division immediately and arrange for the piston to rod connection to be properly re-assembled to withstand the higher temperature service and other cylinder changes. Note: the maximum temperature rating for the composite piston is +165°F (+74°C).

The piston and rod are securely locked together with anaerobic adhesive. This threaded connection should only be disassembled or reassembled by factory trained personnel.
NOTE: An extreme pressure lubricant (such as molybdlenum disulphate) should be used on the tie rod threads and bear-ing faces to reduce friction and tie rod twist.
Assemble both cap and head, complete with cylinder body O-Rings (sym. # 18), to each end of the cylinder body. Install end cap fasteners and tighten to appropriate torque, using opposite corner to corner torquing sequence.
In case of a “DD” – center trunnion – mounted cylinder, care must be taken to prevent binding the cylinder body when repositioning the trunnion collar. The proper method of assembling this type of cylinder is as follows:
After all the piston seals have been installed on the piston and the piston is in the cylinder body, fit the cap with its O-ring (sym. # 18) in position onto the cylinder body. Then “stud” into the trunnion collar the four tie rods that connect the cap to the trunnion collar. Hand tighten the four tie rod nuts at the cap. Distances from the inner face of the cap to the finished face of the trunnion collar should the be made equal at all four tie rods when all four tie rod nuts are in contact with the cap.
When the assembly is ready for final torquing, it may be necessary to adjust the tie rods at the cap when torquing the tie rods at the head in order to position the trunnion collar in its final position.
As a check, to be certain the trunnion mount will not interfere with cylinder operation, move the piston and rod assembly by hand to determine whether there is any tendency for the piston to bind at the spot where the trunnion collar is located. If any binding is noticeable, readjust the tie rods.
Parker Lube-A-Cyl... Is recommended for use in air cylinders during normal operation, and particularly when servicing and reassembling cylinders. It is a multi-purpose lubricant in grease form that provides lubrication without deteriorating effects on synthetic seals. It produces a thin film which will not blow out with exhaust air. It provides piston, rod and seal lubrication, and has excellent resistance to water and mechanical breakdown with temperature range of -10°F (-23°C) to +350°F (+177°C). Lube-A-Cyl is packaged in 1.5 oz. tubes, a sufficient quantity for average size air cylinder. One application should last for a period of 6 to 18 months depending upon service. Order by part number 0761630000.
Servicing the Piston Seals Disassemble the cylinder completely, remove the old seals and clean all the parts. The cylinder bore and piston should then be examined for evidence of scoring. (The light scratch marks usually present on both cylinder bore and piston will generally have no detrimental effects on the performance of the cylinder.)
Apply Parker “Lube-A-Cyl” to O.D. of piston and all grooves. Install one piston Lipseal (sym. # 11 or 12) in the groove nearest the rod. The two “lips” of this seal should face toward the rod end of the piston. Aluminum and 4" & 5" composite pistons only – If required, install magnetic ring (sym. #13) in the bottom of the middle groove and then install wear band (sym. #27) in the top of the middle groove.
Coat the inside of the cylinder body with Parker “Lube-A-Cyl” and insert the piston – cap end first – into the cylinder body as shown in detail “2” below.
Next, turn the cylinder body on its side and push the piston and rod assembly through the barrel just far enough to expose the groove for the second Lipseal. (See detail “3” below.) For aluminum pistons, be careful not to move the piston too far so as to expose the wear strip (sym. #27). If the piston should move too far, push the piston and rod assembly completely through the cylinder body and again start the piston from the original end. Now install the second Lipseal (sym. # 11 or 12) in the exposed groove with the two “lips” facing away from the rod and pull the piston into the cylinder body.

(The light scratch marks usually present on both cylinder bore and piston will generallyhavenodetrimentaleffectsontheperformanceofthe cylinder.)
Apply clean light oil to O.D. of piston and all grooves. Install one piston Lipseal (sym. # ��) & one Back-Up Washer (sym. #39) in the groove nearest the rod. The two “lips” of the Lipseal (sym. #��) should face toward the rod end of the piston and the Back-Up Washer (sym. #39) should be installed in the same piston groove as shown. If required, install the magnetic ring (sym. # �3) in the bottom of the middle groove. (See detail “�” below) Next, install the wear strip (sym. # 27) in the top of the middle groove – (See detail “2” below).
Coat the inside of the cylinder body with clean light oil and insertthepiston–capendfirst–intothecylinderbodyasshown in detail “3” below.
Next, turn the cylinder body on its side and push the piston and rod assembly through the barrel just far enough to expose the piston groove for the second Lipseal. (See detail “4” below.) Be careful not to move the piston too far so as to expose the wear strip (sym. # 27). If the piston should move too far, push the piston and rod assembly completely through the cylinder body and again start the piston from the original end. Now install the second Lipseal (sym. # ��) & Back-Up Washer (sym. #39) in the exposed groove with the two “lips” of the Lipseal (sym. #��) facing away from the rod and the Back-Up Washer (sym. #39) positioned as shown. Then pull the piston into the cylinder body.
The piston and rod are securely locked together with anaerobic adhesive. This threaded connection should only be disassembled or reassembled by factory trained personnel.
NOTE: An extreme pressure lubricant (such as molybdlenum disulphate) should be used on the tie rod threads and bearing faces to reduce friction and tie rod twist.
Assemble both cap and head, complete with cylinder body O-Rings (sym. # �8), to each end of the cylinder body. Install end cap fasteners and tighten to appropriate torque, using opposite corner to corner torquing sequence. After screws are torqued,firmlytorquetherodglandagainstthehead.
In case of a “DD” – center trunnion – mounted cylinder, care must be taken to prevent binding the cylinder body when repositioning the trunnion collar. The proper method of assembling this type of cylinder is as follows:
After all the piston seals have been installed on the piston andthepistonisinthecylinderbody,fitthecapwithitsO-ring(sym. # �8) in position onto the cylinder body. Then “stud” into the trunnion collar the four tie rods that connect the cap to the trunnion collar. Hand tighten the four tie rod nuts at the cap. Distancesfromtheinnerfaceofthecaptothefinishedfaceofthe trunnion collar should the be made equal at all four tie rods when all four tie rod nuts are in contact with the cap.
Whentheassemblyisreadyforfinaltorquing,itmaybenecessary to adjust the tie rods at the cap when torquing the tie rods at the head in order to position the trunnion collar in its finalposition.
As a check, to be certain the trunnion mount will not interfere with cylinder operation, move the piston and rod assembly by hand to determine whether there is any tendency for the piston to bind at the spot where the trunnion collar is located. If any binding is noticeable, readjust the tie rods.

Rod Lock Removal and Re-assembly
To remove the rod lock from the 3MAJ/4MAJ cylinder in order to service the base 3MAJ/4MAJ cylinder, please perform the following steps:
�. Remove the 3MAJ/4MAJ cylinder from the application to a serviceable area.
2. Using a corner-to-corner sequence, loosen the four SHCS fasteners (�-�/2" to 5" bores) or tie rod nuts (6" to 8" bores and all Style DD mounts (NFPA MT4)) at the rod lock face and remove them from the rod lock. Please note that the tie rod nuts for 6" to 8" bores and all Style DD mounts are also used to assemble the base cylinder.
3. Apply a minimum of 60 PSI air pressure to the rod lock port, or apply the appropriate amount of torque to the manual override shaft, in order to release the rod lock from the piston rod.
4.Carefullyslidetherodlockoffthepistonrodandaway from the base cylinder. The rod lock is piloted and sealed to the gland OD, so some force may be required.
5. Particularly at larger bores, the rod lock can be heavy. Please remove the rod lock from the piston rod and follow all necessary safety precautions.
To re-assemble the rod lock to the base 3MAJ/4MAJ cylinder, please perform the following steps:
�. Remove all dirt and debris from the mating features of the rod lock, base cylinder, fasteners (or nuts) and threads.
2. Apply a minimum of 60 PSI air pressure to the rod lock port, or apply the appropriate amount of torque to the manual override shaft, in order to open the rod lock.
3. Carefully slide the rod lock onto the piston rod and toward the base cylinder. The rod lock is piloted and sealed to the gland OD, so some force may be required. Press the rod lock to the head face as close as possible, avoiding damage to the rod lock o-ring that seals the gland OD.

Catalog AU03-0929/NACylinder Safety Guide
Before selecting or using Parker (The Company) cylinders or related accessories, it is important that you read, understand and follow the following safety informa-tion. Training is advised before selecting and using The Company’s products.
1.0 General Instructions 1.1 Scope – This safety guide provides instructions for selecting and using
(including assembling, installing, and maintaining) cylinder products. This safetyguideisasupplementtoandistobeusedwiththespecificCompanypublicationsforthespecificcylinderproductsthatarebeingconsideredforuse.
1.2 Fail Safe – Cylinder products can and do fail without warning for many reasons. All systems and equipment should be designed in a fail-safe mode so that if the failure of a cylinder product occurs people and property won’t be endangered.
1.3 Distribution – Provide a free copy of this safety guide to each person responsible for selecting or using cylinder products. Do not select or use The Company’s cylinders without thoroughly reading and understanding this safetyguideaswellasthespecificCompanypublicationsfortheproductsconsidered or selected.
1.4 User Responsibility – Due to very wide variety of cylinder applications and cylinder operating conditions, The Company does not warrant that any particularcylinderissuitableforanyspecificapplication.Thissafetyguidedoes not analyze all technical parameters that must be considered in select-ing a product. The hydraulic and pneumatic cylinders outlined in this catalog are designed to The Company’s design guidelines and do not necessarily meet the design guideline of other agencies such as American Bureau of Shipping, ASME Pressure Vessel Code etc. The user, through its own analysis and testing, is solely responsible for:
• Makingthefinalselectionofthecylindersandrelatedaccessories. •Determiningifthecylindersarerequiredtomeetspecificdesignrequire-
ments as required by the Agency(s) or industry standards covering the design of the user’s equipment.
• Assuring that the user’s requirements are met, OSHA requirements are met, and safety guidelines from the applicable agencies such as but not limited to ANSI are followed and that the use presents no health or safety hazards.
• Providing all appropriate health and safety warnings on the equipment on which the cylinders are used.
1.5 Additional Questions – Call the appropriate Company technical service department if you have any questions or require any additional information. See the Company publication for the product being considered or used, or call �-800-CPARKER, or go to www.parker.com, for telephone numbers of the appropriate technical service department.
2.0 Cylinder and Accessories Selection 2.1 Seals – Part of the process of selecting a cylinder is the selection of
seal compounds. Before making this selection, consult the “seal information page(s)” of the publication for the series of cylinders of interest.
Theapplicationofcylindersmayallowfluidssuchascuttingfluids,washdownfluidsetc.tocomeincontactwiththeexternalareaofthecylinder.Thesefluidsmayattackthepistonrodwiperandortheprimarysealandmust be taken into account when selecting and specifying seal compounds.
Dynamic seals will wear. The rate of wear will depend on many operating factors. Wear can be rapid if a cylinder is mis-aligned or if the cylinder has been improperly serviced. The user must take seal wear into consideration in the application of cylinders.
2.2 Piston Rods – Possible consequences of piston rod failure or separation of the piston rod from the piston include, but are not limited to are:
•Pistonrodandorattachedloadthrownoffathighspeed. •Highvelocityfluiddischarge. • Piston rod extending when pressure is applied in the piston
retract mode.
Piston rods or machine members attached to the piston rod may move suddenly and without warning as a consequence of other conditions occurring to the machine such as, but not limited to:
• Unexpected detachment of the machine member from the piston rod.
•Failureofthepressurizedfluiddeliverysystem(hoses,fittings,valves,pumps, compressors) which maintain cylinder position.
• Catastrophic cylinder seal failure leading to sudden loss of pressurized fluid.
• Failure of the machine control system. Follow the recommendations of the “Piston Rod Selection Chart and Data”
in the publication for the series of cylinders of interest. The suggested piston rod diameter in these charts must be followed in order to avoid piston rod buckling.
Piston rods are not normally designed to absorb bending moments or loads which are perpendicular to the axis of piston rod motion. These additional loads can cause the piston rod to fail. If these types of additional loads are expected to be imposed on the piston rod, their magnitude should be made known to our engineering department.
The cylinder user should always make sure that the piston rod is securely attached to the machine member.
On occasion cylinders are ordered with double rods (a piston rod extended from both ends of the cylinder). In some cases a stop is threaded on to one of the piston rods and used as an external stroke adjuster. On occasions spacers are attached to the machine member connected to the piston rod and also used as a stroke adjuster. In both cases the stops will create a pinch point and the user should consider appropriate use of guards. If these external stops are not perpendicular to the mating contact surface, or if debris is trapped between the contact surfaces, a bending moment will be placed on the piston rod, which can lead to piston rod failure. An external stop will alsonegatetheeffectofcushioningandwillsubjectthepistonrodtoimpactloading. Those two (2) conditions can cause piston rod failure. Internal stroke adjusters are available with and without cushions. The use of external stroke adjusters should be reviewed with our engineering department.
The piston rod to piston and the stud to piston rod threaded connections are secured with an anaerobic adhesive. The strength of the adhesive decreases with increasing temperature. Cylinders which can be exposed to tempera-tures above +250°F (+�2�°C) are to be ordered with a non studded piston rod and a pinned piston to rod joint.
2.3 Cushions – Cushions should be considered for cylinder applications when the piston velocity is expected to be over 4 inches/second.
Cylinder cushions are normally designed to absorb the energy of a linear applied load. A rotating mass has considerably more energy than the same mass moving in a linear mode. Cushioning for a rotating mass application should be review by our engineering department.
2.4 Cylinder Mountings–Somecylindermountingconfigurationsmayhavecertain limitations such as but not limited to minimum stroke for side or foot mounting cylinders or pressure de-ratings for certain mounts. Carefully review the catalog for these types of restrictions.
Always mount cylinders using the largest possible high tensile alloy steel socketheadcapscrewsthatcanfitinthecylindermountingholesandtorquethem to the manufacturer’s recommendations for their size.
2.5 Port Fittings – Hydraulic cylinders applied with meter out or decelera-tioncircuitsaresubjecttointensifiedpressureatpistonrodend.
The rod end pressure is approximately equal to:
operatingpressurexeffectivecapendareaeffectiverodendpistonarea
Contact your connector supplier for the pressure rating of individual connectors.
3.0 Cylinder and Accessories Installation and Mounting 3.1 Installation 3.1.1 – Cleanliness is an important consideration, and cylinders are
shipped with the ports plugged to protect them from contaminants enter-ing the ports. These plugs should not be removed until the piping is to be installed. Before making the connection to the cylinder ports, piping should be thoroughly cleaned to remove all chips or burrs which might haveresultedfromthreadingorflaringoperations.
Safety Guide for Selecting and Using Hydraulic, Pneumatic Cylinders and Their Accessories
WARNING: FAILURE OF THE CYLINDER, ITS PARTS, ITS MOUNTING, ITS CONNECTIONS TO OTHER OBJECTS, OR ITS CONTROLS CAN RESULT IN: • Unanticipated or uncontrolled movement of the cylinder or objects connected to it. • Falling of the cylinder or objects held up by it. • Fluid escaping from the cylinder, potentially at high velocity.THESE EVENTS COULD CAUSE DEATH OR PERSONAL INJURY BY, FOR EXAMPLE, PERSONS FALLING FROM HIGH LOCATIONS, BEING CRUSHED OR STRUCK BY HEAVY OR FAST MOVING OBJECTS, BEING PUSHED INTO DANGEROUS EQUIPMENT OR SITUATIONS, OR SLIPPING ON ESCAPED FLUID.

3.1.2 – Cylinders operating in an environment where air drying materials are present such as fast-drying chemicals, paint, or weld splatter, or other hazardous conditions such as excessive heat, should have shields installed to prevent damage to the piston rod and piston rod seals.
3.1.3 – Proper alignment of the cylinder piston rod and its mating component on the machine should be checked in both the extended and retracted positions. Improper alignment will result in excessive rod gland and/orcylinderborewear.Onfixedmountingcylindersattachingthepis-ton rod while the rod is retracted will help in achieving proper alignment.
3.1.4 – Sometimes it may be necessary to rotate the piston rod in order to thread the piston rod into the machine member. This operation must always be done with zero pressure being applied to either side of the piston. Failure to follow this procedure may result in loosening the piston to rod-threaded connection. In some rare cases the turning of the piston rod may rotate a threaded piston rod gland and loosen it from the cylinderhead.Confirmthatthisconditionisnotoccurring.Ifitdoes, re-tightenthepistonrodglandfirmlyagainstthecylinderhead.
For double rod cylinders it is also important that when attaching or detaching the piston rod from the machine member that the torque be applied to the piston rod end of the cylinder that is directly attaching to the machine member with the opposite end unrestrained. If the design of the machine is such that only the rod end of the cylinder opposite to where the rod attaches to the machine member can be rotated, consult the factory for further instructions.
3.2 Mounting Recommendations 3.2.1 – Always mount cylinders using the largest possible high tensile
alloysteelsocketheadscrewsthatcanfitinthecylindermountingholesand torque them to the manufacturer’s recommendations for their size.
3.2.2 – Side-Mounted Cylinders – In addition to the mounting bolts, cylinders of this type should be equipped with thrust keys or dowel pins located so as to resist the major load.
3.2.3 – Tie Rod Mounting – Cylinders with tie rod mountings are recom-mended for applications where mounting space is limited. The standard tie rod extension is shown as BB in dimension tables. Longer or shorter extensions can be supplied. Nuts used for this mounting style should be torqued to the same value as the tie rods for that bore size.
3.2.4 – Flange Mount Cylinders – The controlled diameter of the rod glandextensiononheadendflangemountcylinderscanbeused as a pilot to locate the cylinders in relation to the machine. After align-menthasbeenobtained,theflangesmaybedrilledforpinsordowelstoprevent shifting.
3.2.5 – Trunnion Mountings – Cylinders require lubricated bearing blocks with minimum bearing clearances. Bearing blocks should be carefully aligned and rigidly mounted so the trunnions will not be subjected to bending moments. The rod end should also be pivoted with the pivot pin in line and parallel to axis of the trunnion pins.
3.2.6 – Clevis Mountings – Cylinders should be pivoted at both ends with centerline of pins parallel to each other. After cylinder is mounted, be sure to check to assure that the cylinder is free to swing through its working arc without interference from other machine parts.
4.0 Cylinder and Accessories Maintenance, Troubleshooting and Replacement
4.1 Storage – At times cylinders are delivered before a customer is ready to install them and must be stored for a period of time. When storage is required the following procedures are recommended.
4.1.1 – Store the cylinders in an indoor area which has a dry, clean and noncorrosive atmosphere. Take care to protect the cylinder from both internal corrosion and external damage.
4.1.2 – Whenever possible cylinders should be stored in a vertical posi-tion (piston rod up). This will minimize corrosion due to possible conden-sation which could occur inside the cylinder. This will also minimize seal damage.
4.1.3 – Port protector plugs should be left in the cylinder until the time of installation.
4.1.4 –Ifacylinderisstoredfullofhydraulicfluid,expansionofthefluiddue to temperature changes must be considered. Installing a check valvewithfreeflowoutofthecylinderisonemethod.
4.1.5 – When cylinders are mounted on equipment that is stored outside for extended periods, exposed unpainted surfaces, e.g. piston rod, must be coated with a rust-inhibiting compound to prevent corrosion.
4.2 Cylinder Trouble Shooting
4.2.1 – External Leakage 4.2.1.1 – Rod seal leakage can generally be traced to worn or
damaged seals. Examine the piston rod for dents, gouges or score marks, and replace piston rod if surface is rough.
Rod seal leakage could also be traced to gland wear. If clearance is excessive, replace rod bushing and seal. Rod seal leakage can also be traced to seal deterioration. If seals are soft or gummy or brittle, check compatibility of seal material with lubricant used if air cylinder,oroperatingfluidifhydrauliccylinder.Replacewithsealmaterial,whichiscompatiblewiththesefluids.Ifthesealsarehardor have lost elasticity, it is usually due to exposure to temperatures in excess of �65°F. (+74°C). Shield the cylinder from the heat source to limit temperature to 350°F. (+�77°C.) and replace with fluorocarbonseals.
4.2.1.2 – Cylinder body seal leak can generally be traced to loose tie rods. Torque the tie rods to manufacturer’s recommendation for that bore size.
Excessive pressure can also result in cylinder body seal leak. Determine maximum pressure to rated limits. Replace seals and retorque tie rods as in paragraph above. Excessive pressure can also result in cylinder body seal leak. Determine if the pressure rating of the cylinder has been exceeded. If so, bring the operating pressure down to the rating of the cylinder and have the tie rods replaced.
Pinched or extruded cylinder body seal will also result in a leak. Replace cylinder body seal and retorque as in paragraph above.
Cylinder body seal leakage due to loss of radial squeeze which showsupintheformofflatspotsorduetowearontheO.D.orI.D.– Either of these are symptoms of normal wear due to high cycle rate or length of service. Replace seals as per paragraph above.
4.2.2 – Internal Leakage 4.2.2.1 – Piston seal leak (by-pass) � to 3 cubic inches per minute
leakage is considered normal for piston ring construction. Virtually no static leak with lipseal type seals on piston should be expected. Piston seal wear is a usual cause of piston seal leakage. Replace seals as required.
4.2.2.2 – With lipseal type piston seals excessive back pressure due to over-adjustment of speed control valves could be a direct cause of rapid seal wear. Contamination in a hydraulic system can result in a scored cylinder bore, resulting in rapid seal wear. In either case, replace piston seals as required.
4.2.2.3 – What appears to be piston seal leak, evidenced by the fact that the cylinder drifts, is not always traceable to the piston. To make sure, it is suggested that one side of the cylinder piston be pressurizedandthefluidlineattheoppositeportbedisconnected.Observe leakage. If none is evident, seek the cause of cylinder drift in other component parts in the circuit.
4.2.3 – Cylinder Fails to Move the Load 4.2.3.1 – Pneumatic or hydraulic pressure is too low. Check the
pressure at the cylinder to make sure it is to circuit requirements. 4.2.3.2 – Piston Seal Leak – Operate the valve to cycle the cylinder
andobservefluidflowatvalveexhaustportsatendofcylinderstroke.Replacepistonsealsifflowisexcessive.
4.2.3.3 – Cylinder is undersized for the load – Replace cylinder with one of a larger bore size.
4.3 Erratic or Chatter Operation 4.3.1 – Excessive friction at rod gland or piston bearing due to load
misalignment – Correct cylinder-to-load alignment. 4.3.2 – Cylinder sized too close to load requirements – Reduce load or
install larger cylinder. 4.3.3 –Erraticoperationcouldbetracedtothedifferencebetweenstatic
and kinetic friction. Install speed control valves to provide a back pres-sure to control the stroke.
4.4 Cylinder Modifications, Repairs, or Failed Component – Cylinders asshippedfromthefactoryarenottobedisassembledandormodified. Ifcylindersrequiremodifications,thesemodificationsmustbedoneat companylocationsorbyTheCompany’scertifiedfacilities.TheCylinder DivisionEngineeringDepartmentmustbenotifiedintheeventofamechani-cal fracture or permanent deformation of any cylinder component (excluding seals). This includes a broken piston rod, tie rod, mounting accessory or any othercylindercomponent.Thenotificationshouldincludealloperationandapplication details. This information will be used to provide an engineered repair that will prevent recurrence of the failure.
It is allowed to disassemble cylinders for the purpose of replacing seals or seal assemblies. However, this work must be done by strictly following all the instructions provided with the seal kits.
