Spring return model ratings apply to self-contained units. Air return model ratings apply to units with circulating hydraulic systems (external reservoir - double connecting ports). Heat capacity ratings can be increased using special fluid and seals and/or heat exchanger systems. Consult factory. ** When load propelling force exceeds 25% of total stopping force, based on maximum unit capacity rating, external mechanical load stops are recommended. Mechanical load stops must be positioned to allow piston rod to compress to within 1/16” of completing full stroke. If mechanical load stops cannot be positioned this accurately, specify piston rod extension for additional clearance as full stroke must be utilized for proper unit performance. *** Consult factory for optimum adjustability if unit selected will be used above 80% of its max. working capacity rating when impact velocities are 1.0 FPS or less, and under 60% of its max. working capacity rating when impact velocities are 15.0 FPS or greater.
