NC(D)Q2W-Z, Compact Cylinder, Double Acting Double Rod w/Auto Switch Mounting Groove

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document provides comprehensive details on the Series NCQ2/CQ2 compact air cylinders, emphasizing their compactness, lightweight design, and space-saving features. It highlights the flexibility and environmental benefits of the new CQ2 model over previous versions.
Specifications: The Series NCQ2/CQ2 offers 15 bore sizes from 12mm to 200mm, supporting auto switch capability on four sides for flexible installation. Designed for double acting, single rod operations, they have a maximum operating pressure of 145 psi (1.0 MPa) and a proof pressure of 218 psi (1.5 MPa). Operating temperatures range from -10 to 70°C without an auto switch and -10 to 60°C with an auto switch.
Design and Features: The CQ2 model features a redesigned body for increased flexibility, reduced weight, and environmental benefits, including a reduction in CO2 emissions by 1300 tons due to decreased aluminum usage. The cylinders maintain body strength, supporting kinetic energy, allowable load, and withstand pressure.
Auto Switches: Small auto switches with two-color indication are used for accurate mounting position settings. They can be mounted on any of the four surfaces, with specific configurations for different bore sizes. Environmental factors or magnetic field disturbances may cause instability.
Installation and Mounting: The cylinders offer improved system design flexibility with fewer components and no loose parts. Auto switches can be replaced with foot brackets mounted, and the bracket design does not interfere with the switch slots. Various mounting options are available, including through hole, threaded, clevis, foot, head flange, and rod flange.
Performance and Applications: Detailed performance metrics include allowable kinetic energy, piston speed, and stroke length tolerance. The cylinders are suitable for applications requiring high lateral load, water resistance, and clean series requirements.
Ordering Information: Instructions for ordering include options for standard and non-rotating rods, port thread types, and body options. Information on special switch types and shorter delivery times for intermediate stroke cylinders is also provided.
Dimensions and Mounting: Detailed dimensions for various bore sizes (32 to 100 mm) and stroke ranges are provided. Information on mounting options such as through-hole, both ends tapped, rod end male thread, and various flange and clevis options is included.
Technical Information: Data on allowable lateral load at the rod end, theoretical output, and weight calculations are included, along with conversion factors for units.
Additional Features: The document describes the availability of auto switches, their mounting positions, and the minimum stroke required for installation. It also covers construction and parts, warranty, and operating instructions.
Safety Instructions: Safety instructions are categorized under 'Caution,' 'Warning,' and 'Danger,' indicating varying levels of risk. The document emphasizes the responsibility of the equipment designer to ensure compatibility and safety, advising that only trained personnel should operate the machinery.
Warranty and Compliance: The warranty period is specified as 1 year in service or 1.5 years after delivery, with certain exclusions like vacuum pads. Compliance requirements prohibit the use of products in the manufacture of weapons of mass destruction and emphasize adherence to export regulations.
Mounting and Operating Instructions: Instructions for mounting include using appropriate tools for installing retaining rings and ensuring proper alignment to avoid lateral loads that exceed allowable limits. The document advises against applying reverse torque to piston rods and highlights the importance of securing loads properly to prevent accidents or malfunctions.
Specifications and Torque Guidelines: Specifications for allowable rotational torque for non-rotating rod cylinders are provided, emphasizing the importance of not applying rotational torque to the piston rod to prevent deformation and loss of accuracy.
Installation and Removal Procedures: Instructions are given for the installation and removal of retaining rings using appropriate tools, with a caution about potential hazards if the retaining ring is not properly secured.
Handling and Maintenance Precautions: Precautions to prevent dust and debris from entering the cylinder, the importance of applying loads axially to avoid shortening the service life, and the need to protect the piston rod from scratches are outlined.
Operating Instructions: Guidelines for using pneumatic circuits, avoiding 3-position solenoid valves, and ensuring back pressure for lock release are provided. The document stresses the importance of operating with a load ratio of 50% or less and not synchronizing multiple cylinders to avoid lock release issues.
Lock Mechanism and Manual Release: Instructions for manually releasing the lock are detailed, including the use of accessory bolts and the M/O knob for lock types.
Mounting Bolts and Ordering Information: Details on mounting bolts for various cylinder models are provided, including specifications for bolt sizes, materials, and surface treatments.
Specifications and Features: The document outlines the specifications for the Stroke S1 series, detailing dimensions and applicable strokes available in 5 mm intervals. It includes a note on dimensions with auto switch and applicable stroke limitations.
Product Series: The document mentions the Made to Order Individual Specifications Series (N)CQ2, highlighting bore sizes ranging from 10 mm to 100 mm.
Construction and Parts: Details on construction include a cylinder tube with a concave boss on the head end, with specific mounting and bore size information.
Global Network: The document lists SMC's global manufacturing, distribution, and service network, covering regions in Europe, Asia, North America, South America, and Oceania.
Disclaimer: The document concludes with a disclaimer noting that while efforts were made to ensure accuracy, specifications are subject to change without notice.
