for flexible pressure supply in all automated systems - Compact dimensions
for minimal interfering contours in handling
Options and special information
- Gripping force maintenance version AS/IS
The mechanical gripping force maintenance version ensures minimum gripping force even in the event of a pressure drop. In the AS/S version this acts as a closing force, in the IS version as an opening force. - Version FPS for flexible position sensor
This version is prepared for the use with the flexible position sensor FPS, and allows monitoring of several gripping positions. - Food-grade lubrication
The product contains food-compliant lubricants as standard. The requirements of EN 1672-2:2020 are not fully met. The relevant NSF certificates are available at https://info.nsf.org/USDA/Listings.asp using the lubricant information in the operating manual.
