Describe the motion
Start with what the cylinder needs to move. Include the load, direction of movement, required travel and the cycle pattern. Explain whether another mechanism will guide the load.
Measure the installation space
Provide the required stroke, available mounting space and mounting style. An existing cylinder model or a drawing is especially helpful for a replacement.
Share the air and control conditions
Include the available air pressure and any desired speed or cycle time. Mention whether position sensors, cushioning or a specific valve arrangement are required.
Confirm the configuration
Before ordering, review the dimensions and technical data for the exact variant. A series name alone does not identify every mounting, stroke or sensing option.
These checklists support product inquiries. The technical documentation for the exact model takes precedence.
