Industrial Shock Absorbers

Product catalog summary

Overview
Parker Hannifin Corporation's catalog on Industrial Shock Absorbers highlights their compact designs, high effective weight capability, and industry interchangeability. These shock absorbers are built to withstand high internal pressures and overloads, ensuring a high operational safety margin.

Specifications and Features
The shock absorbers are made from solid alloy steel with a one-piece pressure chamber, eliminating the need for seals or retaining rings. They feature a high tensile steel piston rod, system-lubricated main bearing, and a hardened piston ring. The pressure chamber can withstand pressures up to 14,500 psi (1000 bar).

Deceleration Principles
These shock absorbers provide uniform stopping force throughout the stroke, minimizing damaging force peaks and reducing machine wear, leading to higher production rates.

Effective Weight Considerations
Effective weight is crucial in selecting shock absorbers, as it affects performance. The catalog provides examples illustrating the importance of considering effective weight to avoid high forces at the start or end of the stroke.

Self-Compensating Shock Absorbers
These offer non-adjustability benefits while accommodating changing energy conditions by adjusting the orifice profile to neutralize effects of changing fluid coefficients, weight, velocity, temperature, and fluid compressibility.

Model Selection and Accessories
The catalog includes model rating charts and selection guides for various shock absorber series, including self-compensated and adjustable models, and lists available accessories for miniature and mega series shocks.

Warnings and Recommendations
Improper selection or use of products can cause injury or damage. Users are advised to analyze all aspects of their application and ensure all performance, safety, and warning requirements are met.

Technical Specifications
The document provides detailed technical data for each series, including impact velocity ranges, operating temperatures, mechanical stops, oil types, and materials. It also includes dimensions and mounting options for each model.

Installation Guidelines
Proper installation is crucial for extending the life of shock absorbers and reducing maintenance costs. The document advises on the installation of shock absorbers for pneumatic cylinders and side load adapters.

Key Recommendations
Select shock absorbers based on calculated effective weight and energy metrics. Use side load adapters to improve the lifespan of shock absorbers under high side load angles.

Applications
The shock absorbers are suitable for a wide range of applications, including small linear slides, material handling, packaging equipment, robotics, and machine tools. They offer benefits such as higher operating speeds, reduced reaction forces, and protection of drive mechanisms from shock loads.

Terms and Conditions
The document includes terms and conditions of sale, covering payment, delivery, warranty, limitation of remedy, changes, reschedules, cancellations, special tooling, buyer's property, and taxes. Key points include a warranty period of 18 months and payment terms of net 30 days.

Company Overview
Parker Hannifin Corporation is a global leader in motion-control solutions, offering hydraulic, pneumatic, and electromechanical products. It serves over 400,000 customers worldwide through a vast distribution network.
