End Lock Series MBBCautions for Using1. Use recommended pneumatic circuitCautionFor correct operation of the locking and release mechanism, please use thefollowing pneumatic circuit.WWith locking at head sideWith locking at rod sideq Do not use a 3 position solenoid valve.Avoid using circuit with 3 position solenoid valve (especially closed center).When pressure is trapped in the port with locking mechanism, end lock is free.When utilizing a 3 position closed center valve, even if the lock is engaged, itmay become unlocked due to pressure leakage either across the piston or thevalve spool.w Back pressure is required to release end lock.Be sure air is supplied to side of cylinder without the locking mechanism, asabove, prior to supplying air pressure to the side with end lock or lock may notbe released. (Refer to "Release of lock".)e Release lock when mounting or adjusting the cylinder.If mounting is done with lock engaged, lock mechanism may be damaged.r Use with load 50% or less of rated capacity.If cylinder is used at 50% load capacity or more, lock may be damaged.W4. Relationship with cushionCautionWhen cushion valve at side with locking mechanism is fully opened orclosed, piston rod may reached at stroke end. Thus lock is not established.And when locking is done at cushion valve fully closed, adjust cushion valvesince lock may not be released.5. Release of lockWarningWhen lock is to be released, supply air pressure to the port without thelocking mechanism, this relieves the load from the lock mechanism. Thensupply pressure to the port with lock, releasing the lock and changingcylinder direction.(Refer to recommended pneumatic circuit.) When port without lockmechanism is exhausted and locking mechanism is loaded, the lock may bedamaged due to excessive force on lock during release. Piston rod willoperate immediately.6. Manual releaseCautionNon-locking styleInsert attached bolt from upper side of rubber cover (no need to removerubber cover), tighten locking piston and pull bolt, locking will be released.When bolt is released, locking begins to take place. Thread size, requiredpulling force and stroke are listed below.Bore size (mm)3240, 50, 6380, 100Thread size≥ M2.5 X 0.45 X 25 l≥ M3 X 0.5 X 30 l≥ M5 X 0.8 X 40 l∗ Remove bolt under normal operations.It may cause malfunction of locking and release.Pulling force4.9N10N24.5NRubber coverStroke (mm)233t Do not use two cylinders in parallel at same time.Avoid to using 2 or more end lock cylinders at same time to perform a singletask because binding may occur and one of the cylinders end lock may notrelease.y Use a speed controller as meter-out.Meter-in control may not allow lock to release.u Use complete stroke or cylinder at side with end lock.If cylinder piston does not reached end of stroke, end lock may not lock orrelease.2. Operating pressureCautionUse pressures over 0.15MPa at port with locking mechanism.Locking styleTurn 90° to counterclockwise pushing M/O button. Lock is released when oncap and OFF mark on M/O button correspond. (Lock remains released.)When locking is desired, turn M/O button clockwise 90° while pushing fully,correspond on cap and ON mark on M/O button. The correct position isconfirmed by click sound "click".If not confirmed, locking is not done.LockRelease3. Exhaust speedCautionWhen pressures at port with locking mechanism is decrease to 0.05MPa orless, it is automatically locked. When exhaust pipe at port with lockingmechanism is thin and long or speed controller is separated from cylinderport, exhaust speed is slow and will require additional time for lockengagement. Clogging the silencer mounted on exhaust port of solenoidvalve leads to same result.LockedReleased32

The compatibility of pneumatic equipment is the responsibility of the personwho designs the pneumatic system or decides its specifications.Since the products specified here are used in various operating conditions, their compatibility for thespecific pneumatic system must be based on specifications or after analysis and/or tests to meet yourspecific requirements. The expected performance and safety assurance will be the responsibility of theperson who has determined the compatibility of the system. This person should continuously reviewthe suitability of all items specified. Referring to the latest catalogue information with a view to givingdue consideration to any possibility of equipment failure when configuring a system.2. Only trained personnel should operate pneumatically operated machineryand equipment.Compressed air can be dangerous if handled incorrectly. Assembly, handling or repair of pneumaticsystems should be performed by trained and experienced operators.3. Do not service machinery/equipment or attempt to remove components untilsafety is confirmed.1. Inspection and maintenance of machinery/equipment should only be performed after confirmation ofsafe locked-out control positions.2. When equipment is to be removed, confirm the safety process as mentioned above. Cut the supplypressure for this equipment and exhaust all residual compressed air in the system.3. Before machinery/equipment is restarted, take measures to prevent shooting-out of cylinder pistonrod, etc. (Bleed air into the system gradually to create back pressure.)4. Contact SMC if the product is to be used in any of the following conditions:1. Conditions and environments beyond the given specifications, or if product is used outdoors.2. Installation on equipment in conjunction with atomic energy, railway, air navigation, vehicles,medical equipment, food and beverages, recreation equipment, emergency stop circuits, pressapplications, or safety equipment.3.

Series MBActuator Precautions 1Be sure to read before handling.WarningDesign1. There is a danger of sudden action by aircylinders if sliding parts of machinery aretwisted, etc., and changes in forces occur.In such cases, human injury may occur; e.g., by catching hands orfeet in the machinery, or damage to the machinery itself mayoccur. Therefore, the machine should be designed to avoid suchdangers.2. Install a protective cover when there is a riskof human injuryIf a driven object and moving parts of a cylinder pose a danger ofhuman injury, design the structure to avoid contact with the humanbody.3. Securely tighten all mounting parts andconnecting parts so that they will not becomeloose.Especially when a cylinder operates with high frequency or isinstalled where there is a lot of vibration, ensure that all partsremain secure.4. A deceleration circuit or shock absorber,etc., may be required.When a driven object is operated at high speed or the load isheavy, a cylinder's cushion will not be sufficient to absorb theimpact. Install a deceleration circuit to reduce the speed beforecushioning, or install an external shock absorber to relieve theimpact. In this case, the rigidity of the machinery should also beexamined.5. Consider a possible drop in circuit pressuredue to a power outage, etc.When a cylinder is used in a clamping mechanism, there is adanger of work pieces dropping if there is decrease in clampingforce due to a drop in circuit pressure caused by a power outage,etc. Therefore, safety equipment should be installed to preventdamage to machinery and/or human injury. Suspension mechanismsand lifting devices also require consideration for dropprevention.6. Consider a possible loss of power source.Measures should be taken to protect against human injury andequipment damage in the event that there is a loss of power toequipment controlled by air pressure, electricity or hydraulics, etc.7. Design circuitry to prevent sudden lurchingof driven objects.When a cylinder is driven by an exhaust center directional controlvalve or when starting up after residual pressure is exhausted fromthe circuit, etc., the piston and its driven object will lurch at highspeed if pressure is applied to one side of the cylinder because ofthe absence of air pressure inside the cylinder.Therefore, equipment should be selected and circuits designed toprevent sudden lurching, because there is a danger of humaninjury and/or damage to equipment when this occurs.8. Consider emergency stops.Design so that human injury and/or damage to machinery andequipment will not be caused when machinery is stopped by asafety device under abnormal conditions, a power outage or amanual emergency stop.9. Consider the action when operation isrestarted after an emergency stop or abnormalstop.Design the machinery so that human injury or equipment damagewill not occur upon restart of operation. When the cylinder has tobe reset at the starting position, install safe manual controlequipment.WarningSelection1. Confirm the specifications.The products advertised in this catalog are designed according touse in industrial compressed air systems. If the products are usedin conditions where pressure, temperature, etc., are out ofspecification, damage and/or malfunction may be caused. Do notuse in these conditions. (Refer to specifications.)Consult with SMC if you use a fluid other than compressed air.2. Intermediate stops.When intermediate stopping of a cylinder piston is performed with a3 position closed center type directional control valve, it is difficultto achieve stopping positions as accurately and precisely as withhydraulic pressure to the compressibility of air.Furthermore, since valves and cylinders are not guaranteed forzero air leakage, it may not be possible to hold a stopped positionfor an extended period of time. Contact SMC in case it is necessaryto hold a stopped position for an extended period.Caution1. Operate within the limits of the maximumusable stroke.The piston rod will be damaged if operated beyond the maximumstroke.Refer to the air cylinder model selection procedure for the maximumusable stroke.2. Operate the piston in such a way that collisiondamage will not occur at the stroke end.The operation range should prevent damage from occurring whena piston, having inertial force, stops by striking the cover at thestroke end. Refer to the cylinder model selection procedure for themaximum usable stroke.3. Use a speed controller to adjust the cylinderdrive speed, gradually increasing from a lowspeed to the desired speed setting.4. Provide intermediate supports for long strokecylinders.Provide intermediate supports for cylinders with long strokes toprevent rod damage due to sagging of the rod, deflection of thetube, vibration and external loads.46

Series MBActuator Precautions 2Be sure to read before handling.CautionMounting1. Be certain to align the rod axis with the loadand direction of movement when connecting.When not properly aligned, the rod and tube may be twisted, anddamage may be caused due to wear on areas such as the innertube surface, bushings, rod surface and seals.2. When an external guide is used, connect therod end and the load in such a way that thereis no interference at any point within thestroke.3. Do not scratch or gouge th sliding parts of thecylinder tube or piston rod, etc., by striking orgrasping them with other objects.Cylinder bores are manufactured to precise tolerances, so thateven a slight deformation may cause malfunction. Also, scratchesor gouges, etc., in the piston rod may lead to damaged seals andcause air leakage.4. Prevent the seizure of rotating parts.Prevent the seizure of rotating parts (pins, etc.) by applying grease.5. Do not use until you can verify that equipmentcan operate properly.Verify correct mounting by appropriate function and leakageinspections after compressed air and power are connectedfollowing mounting, maintenance or conversions.6. Instruction manual.The product should be mounted and operated after throughlyreading the manual and understanding its contents.Keep the instruction manual where it can be referred to as needed.CautionPiping1. Preparation before pipingBefore piping is connected, it should be thoroughly blown out withair (flushing) or washed to remove chips, cutting oil and otherdebris from inside the pipe.2. Wrapping of pipe tapeWhen screwing together pipes and fittings, etc., be certain thatchips from the pipe threads and sealing material do not get insidethe piping.Also, when pipe tape is used, leave 1.5 to 2 thread ridges exposedet the end of the threadsWrappingdirectionExpose approx. 2 threadsPipe tapeCautionCushion1. Readjust using the cushion needle.Cushion is adjusted at the factory, however, the cushion needleon the cover should be readjusted when the product is put intoservice, based upon factors such as the size of the load and theoperating speed. When the cushion needle is turned clockwise,the restriction becomes smaller and the cushion’s effectiveness isincreased. Tighten the lock nut securely after adjustment isperformed.2. Do not operate with the cushion needle in afully closed condition.This will cause damage to the seals.CautionLubrication1. Lubrication of non-lube type cylinderThe cylinder is lubricated for life at the factory and can be usedwithout any further lubrication.However, in the event that additional cylinder lubrication isrequired, be sure to use ISO VG32 Class 1 turbine oil (with noadditives).Stopping lubrication later may lead to malfunctions because thenew lubricant will cancel out the original lubricant. Therefore,additional lubrication must be continued once it has been started.WarningAir Supply1. Use clean air.Do not use compressed air which includes chemicals, syntheticoils containing organic solvents, salt or corrosive gases, etc., as itcan cause damage or malfunction.Caution1. Install air filters.Install air filters at the upstream side of valves. The filtration degreeshould be 5µm or finer.2. Install an after cooler, air dryer or waterseparator, etc.Air that includes excessive drainage may cause malfunction ofvalves and other pneumatic equipment. To prevent this, install anafter cooler, air dryer or water separator, etc.3. Use the product within the specified range offluid and ambient temperature.Take measures to prevent freezing, since moisture in circuits canbe frozen under 5°C, and this may cause damage to seals andlead to malfunction.Refer to SMC's "Best Pneumatics vol. 4" catalog for further detailson compressed air quality.47

Series MBActuator Precautions 3Be sure to read before handling.WarningOperating Environment1. Do not use in environments where there is adanger of corrosion.Refer to the construction drawings regarding cylinder materials.2. In dusty locations or where water or oilsplashing is a regular occurrence, protectthe rod by installing a rod cover.If the area is very dusty, use the type with a heavy duty scraper(-XC4). If fluids splash on the cylinder, use a cylinder with improvedwater resistance.WarningMaintenance1. Perform maintenance inspection and serviceaccording to the procedure indicated in theinstruction manualImproper handling and maintenance may cause malfunctioningand damage of machinery equipment to occur.2. Removal of components, and supply/exhaustof compressed air.Before any machinery or equipment is removed, first ensure thatthe appropriate measures are in place to prevent the fall or erraticmovement of driven objects and equipment, then cut off the electricpower and reduce the pressure in the system to zero only thenshould you proceed with the removal of any machinery andequipment.When machinery is restarted, proceed with caution after confirmingthat appropriate measures are in place to prevent cylinder fromlurching.Caution1. Filter drainageDrain out condensate from air filters regularly.48

Series MBAuto Switch Precautions 1Be sure to read before handling.Warning1. Confirm the specifications.Read the specifications carefully and use the product appropriately.The product may be damaged or malfunction if it is usedoutside the range of specifications for load current, voltage,temperature or impact.2. Take precautions when multiple cylindersare used close together.When two or more auto switch cylinders are lined up in closeproximity to each other, magnetic field interference may cause theswitches to malfunction. Maintain a minimum cylinder separation of40mm. (When the allowable interval is specified for each cylinderseries, use the indicated value.)3. Monitor the length of time that a switch isON at an intermediate stroke position.When an auto switch is placed at an intermediate position of thestroke and a load is driven at the time the piston passes, the autoswitch will operate, but if the speed is too great the operating timewill be shortened and the load may not operate properly. Themaximum detectable piston speed is:V (mm/s) =Auto switch operating range (mm)Load operating time (ms)In cases of high piston speed, the use of an auto switch (D-F5NT)with a built-in OFF delay timer (approx. 200ms) makes it possibleto extend the load operating time.4. Keep wiring as short as possible.As the length of the wiring to a load gets longer, the rush currentat switching ON becomes greater, and this may shorten theproduct's life. (The switch will stay ON all the time.)1) For an auto switch without a contact protection circuit, use acontact protection box when the wire length is 5m or longer.2) Even if an auto switch has a built-in contact protection circuit,when the wiring is more than 30m long, it is not able toadequately absorb the rush current and its life may bereduced. It is again necessary to connect a contact protectionbox in order to extend its life. Please contact SMC in this case.3) Although wire length should not affect switch function, use awire 100m or shorter.5. Monitor the internal voltage drop of theswitch.1) Switches with an indicator light (Except D-Z76 and A56) If auto switches are connected in series as shown below, takenote that there will be a large voltage drop because of internalresistance in the light emitting diodes. (Refer to internal voltagedrop in the auto switch specifications.)[The voltage drop will be "n" times larger when "n" autoswitches are connected.]Even though an auto switch operates normally, the load maynot operate.Design and SelectionX 1000Load Simillarly, when operating below a specified voltage, it ispossible that the load may be ineffective even through the autoswitch function is normal. Therefore, the formula below shouldbe satisfied after confirming the minimum operating voltage ofthe load.Supplyvoltage– Internal voltagedrop of switch>Minimum operatingvoltage of load2) If the internal resistance of a light emitting diode causes aproblem, select a switch without an indicator light (MODEL D-Z80 and A6)3) Generally, the internal voltage drop will be greater with a 2 wiresolid state auto switch than with a reed switch. Take the sameprecautions as in 1).Also, note that a 12VDC relay is not applicable.6. Monitor leakage current.With a 2-wire solid state auto switch, current (leakage current)flows to the load to operate the internal circuit even when in theOFF state.Operating current of load (OFF condition) > LeakagecurrentIf the condition given in the above formula are not met, the switchwill not reset correctly (it stays ON). Use a 3-wire switch if thiscondition cannot be satisfied.Moreover, leakage current flow to the load will be "n" times largerwhen "n" auto switches are connected in parallel.7. Do not use a load that generates surgevoltage.If driving a load that generates a surge voltage, use as a relay, usea switch with a built-in contact protection circuit or a contactprotection box.Although a zener diode for surge protection is connected at theoutput side of a solid state auto switch, damage may still occur ifa surge is applied repeatedly. When directly driving a load thatgenerates surge, such as a relay or solenoid valve, use a switchwith a built-in surge absorbing element.8. Cautions for use in an interlock circuitWhen an auto switch is used for an interlock signal requiring highreliability, devise a double interlock system to safeguard againstmalfunctions by providing a mechanical protection function, or byalso using another switch (sensor) together with the auto switch.Also perform periodic maintenance and inspections and confirmproper operation.9. Ensure sufficient clearance for maintenanceactivities.When designing an application, be sure to allow sufficientclearance for maintenance and inspections.49

Series MBAuto Switch Precautions 2Be sure to read before handling.WarningMounting and Adjustment1. Do not drop or bump.Do not drop, bump or apply excessive impacts (300m/s 2 or morefor reed switches and 1000m/s 2 or more for solid state switches)while handling.Although the body of the switch may not be damaged, the insideof the switch could be damaged and cause a malfunction.2. Do not carry a cylinder by the auto switchlead wires.Never carry a cylinder by its lead wires. This may not only causebroken lead wires, but it may cause internal elements of theswitch to be damaged by the stress.3. Mount switches using the proper tighteningtorque.When a switch is tightened beyond the range of tightening torque,the mounting screws or switch may be damaged. On the otherhand, tightening below the range of tightening torque may allowthe switch to slip out of position. (Refer to Best Pneumatics Vol.2page 5.3-69 for how to install or move the switch and forspecifications of the tightening torque, etc..)4. Mount a switch at the center of the operatingrange.Adjust the mounting position of an auto switch so that the pistonstops at the center of the operating range (the range in which aswitch is ON). (The mounting positions shown in a catalogindicate the optimum position at the stroke end.) If mounted at theend of the operating range (around the borderline of ON andOFF), the operation may be unstable.WarningWiring1. Avoid repeatedly bending or stretching leadwires.Broken lead wires will result from repeatedly applying bendingstress or stretching forces to the lead wires.2. Be sure to connect the load before power isapplied.If the power is turned ON when an auto switch is not connectedto a load, the switch will be instantly damaged because of excesscurrent.3. Confirm proper insulation of wiring.Be certain that there is no faulty wiring insulation (such as contactwith other circuits, ground fault, improper insulation betweenterminals, etc.). Damage may occur due to excess current flowinto a switch.4. Do not wire in conjunction with power linesor high voltage lines.Wire separately from power lines or high voltage lines, avoidingparallel wiring or wiring in the same conduit with these lines.Control circuits containing auto switches, may malfunction due tonoise from these other lines.Wiring5. Do not allow short circuit of loads.If the power is turned ON with a load in a short circuited condition,the switch will be instantly damaged because of excess currentflow into the switch.D-J51 and all models of PNP output type switches do not havebuilt-in short circuit protection circuits. If loads are short circuited,the switches will be instantly damaged, as in the case of reedswitches.Take special care to avoid reverse wiring with the brown [red]power supply line and the black [white] output line on 3-wire typeswitches.6. Avoid incorrect wiring.A 24VDC switch with indicator light has polarity. The brown leadwire or terminal No.1 is (+), and the blue lead wire or terminalNo.2 is (–).1) If connections are reversed, the switch will still operate, but thelight emitting diode will not light up.Also note that a current greater than the maximum specifiedone will damage a light emitting diode and make it inoperate.2) However, when using a two color indication auto switch (D-A59W), be aware that the switch will constantly remain ON ifthe connections are reversed.1) If connections are reversed on a 2 wire type switch, the switchwill not be damaged because it is protected by a protectioncircuit, but it will remain in a normally ON state. However, it isstill necessary to avoid reversed connections, since the switchwill be damaged if a load short circuits in this condition.2) Even if (+) and (–) power supply line connections are reversedon a 3-wire type switch, the switch will still be protected by aprotection circuit. However, if the (+) power supply line isconnected to the blue [black] wire and the (–) power supplyline is connected to the black [white] wire, the switch will bedamaged.∗ Lead wire color changesLead wire colors of SMC switches have been changed in order tomeet NECA Standard 0402 for production beginning September,1996 and thereafter. Please refer to the tables provided.Special care should be taken regarding wire polarity during thetime that the old colors still coexist with the new colors.2-wireOutput (+)Output (–)OldRedBlackNewBrownBlueSolid statewith diagnostic outputOld NewPower supply (+) Red BrownPower supply GND Black BlueOutput White BlackDiagnostic output Yellow Orange3-wirePower supply (+)Power supply GNDOutputSolid state with latch typediagnostic outputPower supply (+)Power supply GNDOutputLatch typediagnostic outputOldRedBlackWhiteOldRedBlackWhiteYellowNewBrownBlueBlackNewBrownBlueBlackOrange50

Series MBAuto Switch Precautions 3Be sure to read before handling.WarningOperating Environment1. Never use in the presence of explosivegases.The construction of our auto switches does not make themexplosion-proof. Never use them in the presence of an explosivegas, as this may cause a serious explosion.2. Do not use in an area where a magnetic fieldis generated.Auto switches will malfunction or magnets inside cylinders willbecome demagnetized. (Consult with SMC regarding theavailability of a magnetic field resistant auto switch.)3. Do not use in an environment where theauto switch will be continually exposed towater.Although switches except D-A3/A44/G39/K39 satisfy theIEC standard IP67 construction (JIS C 0920: watertightconstruction), do not use switches in applications wherecontinually exposed to water splash or spray. They may causedeterioration of the insulation or swelling of the potting resininside switches and may lead to a malfunction.4. Do not use in an environment laden with oilor chemicals.Consult with SMC if auto switches will be used in an environmentladen with coolants, cleaning solvent, various oils or chemicals. Ifauto switches are used under these conditions for even a shorttime, they may be adversely affected by a deterioration of theinsulation, a malfunction due to swelling of the potting resin, orhardening of the lead wires.5. Do not use in an environment laden withtemperature cycles.Consult with SMC if switches are to be used where there aretemperature cycles other than normal temperature changes, asthey may be adversely affected internally.6. Do not use in an environment where there isexcessive impact shock.When excessive impact (300m/s2 or more) is applied to a reedswitch during operation, the contact point may malfunction andgenerate or cut off a signal momentarily (1ms or less). Consultwith SMC regarding the need to use a solid state switchdepending on the environment.7. Do not use in an area where surges aregenerated.When there are units (such as solenoid type lifter, high frequencyinduction furnace, motor, etc.) that generate a large amount ofsurge in the area around cylinders with solid state auto switches,their proximity may cause deterioration or damage to internalcircuit elements of the switch. Avoid and protect against sourcesof surge generation and crossed lines.8. Avoid close contact with accumulated ironwaste or magnetic substances.When a large accumulated amount of ferrous waste such asmachining clips or welding spatter, or a magnetic substance(something attracted by a magnet) is brought into close proximityto an cylinder with auto switches, this may cause the autoswitches to malfunction due to a loss of the magnetic force insidethe cylinder.MaintenanceWarning1. Perform the following maintenance inspectionand services periodically in order to preventpossible danger due to unexpected autoswitch malfunction.1) Securely tighten switch mounting screws.If screws become loose or the mounting position is dislocated,retighten screws securely after readjusting the mountingposition.2) Confirm that there is no damage to lead wires.To prevent faulty insulation, replace switches or repair leadwires if damage is discovered.3) Confirm that the green light on a 2-color indicator type switchlights up.Confirm that the Green LED is ON when stopped at the setposition. If the Red LED is ON when stopped at the setposition, the mounting position is not appropriate. Readjust themounting position until the Green LED lights up.OtherWarning1. Consult with SMC concerning waterresistance, elasticity of lead wires, andusage at welding sites, etc.51
