CQ2 Series Compact Pneumatic Cylinder Assembly Kits

• Product Type: Pneumatic Cylinder Assembly Kit
• Series: CQ2 Series
• Cylinder Type (Assembled): Compact Pneumatic Cylinder (Industry Standard Type, Non-ISO in terms of a specific ISO standard number, but a widely adopted design)

I. Operational Specifications (for Assembled Cylinder):

• Acting Principle: Typically Double-Acting (kits for Single-Acting versions may also be available)
• Operating Medium: Filtered Compressed Air (lubricated or non-lubricated operation, depending on specific kit/seal materials)
• Operating Pressure Range:
  • Typically: 0.05 to 1.0 MPa (0.5 to 10 bar; ~7 to 145 psi)
• Proof Pressure: Typically 1.5 MPa (15 bar; approx. 217 psi)
• Ambient & Fluid Temperature Range:
  • Standard Seals: -10°C to +60°C (14°F to 140°F) or -20°C to +70°C (varies by manufacturer)
  • (Kits with specialized high/low-temperature seals will specify different ranges)
• Cushioning:
  • Standard: Rubber bumpers at both ends (common for CQ2 due to compact size)
  • (Adjustable air cushioning is generally not a feature of standard CQ2 series)
• Piston Speed Range: Typically 50 mm/s to 500 mm/s (varies by bore size, load, and application)

II. Dimensional & Constructional Parameters (Kit Components & Assembled Cylinder):

• Available Bore Sizes (Kit Selection):
  • Common Range: Ø12mm, Ø16mm, Ø20mm, Ø25mm, Ø32mm, Ø40mm, Ø50mm, Ø63mm, Ø80mm, Ø100mm (some manufacturers may offer up to Ø125mm or larger for CQ2 type)
• Stroke Length (Configurable via Kit):
  • Components allow for assembly of various stroke lengths, typically from 5mm up to 100mm, 150mm, or even 300mm for larger bores (determined by user cutting of barrel/body and piston rod stock).
• Piston Rod:
  • Material: Carbon Steel (often hard chrome plated) or Stainless Steel.
  • Thread: Male or Female external threads (common).
  • Options: Kits for non-rotating rod versions (e.g., with a specific rod profile or external guide) may be available for certain CQ2 variants.
• Cylinder Body/Barrel:
  • Material: Anodized Aluminum Alloy (extruded profile).
  • Features: Compact, often rectangular or slightly rounded “D” shape profile; may include integrated grooves for auto switch (sensor) mounting.
• End Covers/Caps:
  • Material: Die-cast Aluminum or Wrought Aluminum Alloy.
• Seals (Included in Kit):
  • Piston Seals: Typically NBR (Nitrile Rubber) or PUR (Polyurethane).
  • Rod Seals/Wiper: Typically NBR or PUR.
  • O-Rings & Static Seals: NBR.
• Magnetic Piston:
  • Typically standard or a selectable option within the kit for position sensing via external sensors.
• Mounting Options (for Assembled Cylinder):
  • Versatile: Through-holes, tapped holes on multiple faces of the cylinder body for direct mounting. A wide range of specific CQ2 mounting accessories (foot brackets, flanges, clevises, etc.) are usually sold separately from the basic assembly kit.

III. Kit Specifics:

• Kit Contents (General):
  • Cylinder Body/Barrel Stock (often supplied for user cutting to achieve desired stroke)
  • Piston Rod Stock (often supplied for user cutting and threading/machining)
  • Front End Cover/Plate
  • Rear End Cover/Plate
  • Piston Assembly (including magnet if applicable)
  • Complete Seal Set (piston seals, rod seal, wiper, O-rings, bumper seals)
  • Assembly Fasteners (e.g., screws, retaining rings)
  • Lubricating Grease (for initial assembly)
• Customization Note: Assembly kits are designed to enable users to create cylinders of specific stroke lengths by cutting the cylinder body and piston rod material to the required dimensions. Appropriate tools and machining capabilities are necessary.
