ISO 21287, series CCL-IC

Aventics ISO 21287 Serie CCL-IC pneumatic cylinders are compact double-acting pneumatic actuators designed for space-constrained industrial automation applications. These cylinders conform to the ISO 21287 international standard for pneumatic cylinders, ensuring dimensional interchangeability across manufacturers. Primary applications include packaging machinery, automotive assembly lines, material handling systems, and precision positioning tasks where compact form factor is critical. The CCL-IC designation indicates integrated cushioning for smooth operation and reduced mechanical shock in high-cycle applications.

Aventics CCL-IC cylinders are available in bore diameters of 80mm and 100mm with stroke lengths ranging from 40mm to 150mm based on the product variants listed. The operating pressure range is typically 1-10 bar for pneumatic applications, with compressed air as the primary medium. Key selection criteria include bore size determining force output, stroke length matching application travel requirements, and mounting configuration specified by the suffix codes. The integrated cushioning system provides controlled deceleration at end positions, critical for applications requiring precise positioning and reduced mechanical wear.

Aventics ISO 21287 Serie CCL-IC cylinders comply with the ISO 21287 standard which defines dimensional specifications, mounting interfaces, and performance requirements for compact pneumatic cylinders. These cylinders typically meet EN ISO 13849 safety requirements for pneumatic control systems and conform to the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC for European market compliance. Additional certifications may include IP54 ingress protection rating for industrial environments and compatibility with compressed air quality requirements per ISO 8573-1 Class 4.4.4 or better for reliable long-term operation.

The Aventics CCL-IC product variants differ primarily in their suffix coding which specifies mounting configuration, port connections, and cushioning options. Variants ending in 0210028111A typically feature standard mounting brackets and G1/8 threaded ports, while those ending in 0210200111A may include different mounting orientations or port configurations. The bore sizes are available in 80mm (CCL-DA-080) and 100mm (CCL-DA-100) variants, with stroke lengths indicated by the four-digit number in the part designation. All variants maintain ISO 21287 dimensional compatibility while offering flexibility in mounting and connection arrangements.

Aventics CCL-IC pneumatic cylinders require compressed air supply at 1-10 bar operating pressure with filtration to ISO 8573-1 Class 4.4.4 or better to prevent contamination-related failures. Installation involves securing the cylinder using ISO 21287 standard mounting dimensions and connecting pneumatic lines to G1/8 or equivalent threaded ports depending on the variant. The cylinders are compatible with standard pneumatic control valves, flow control valves, and pressure regulators commonly used in industrial automation systems. Proper alignment and support of the load are essential to prevent side loading that could damage the piston rod or internal seals.

Aventics ISO 21287 CCL-IC pneumatic cylinders typically operate within a temperature range of -10°C to +80°C for standard sealing materials, with extended temperature variants available for specialized applications. The cylinders are designed for operating pressures from 1 bar minimum to 10 bar maximum, with safety factors built into the design per ISO 21287 requirements. Standard versions feature IP54 ingress protection suitable for industrial environments with moderate dust and moisture exposure. The integrated cushioning system provides controlled deceleration forces, reducing mechanical shock and extending service life in high-frequency cycling applications.

Aventics CCL-IC pneumatic cylinders require periodic inspection every 6-12 months depending on operating conditions, with focus on piston rod condition, seal integrity, and mounting hardware torque verification. Expected service life exceeds 10 million cycles under normal operating conditions with proper air treatment and within specified pressure and temperature ranges. Maintenance involves checking compressed air quality per ISO 8573-1 standards, inspecting for external damage or wear, and verifying smooth operation throughout the full stroke. Seal replacement intervals typically range from 2-5 years depending on duty cycle, with complete cylinder overhaul recommended after 15-20 million cycles or when performance degradation is observed.
