SMC 10-CDM2L25-200Z-M9PSAPC | 10-/11-CM2-Z Series Clean Room Air Cylinder Double Acting Single Rod 25mm Bore 200mm Stroke Multi-Switch

The SMC 10-CDM2L25-200Z-M9PSAPC is a clean room specification stainless steel mini-cylinder from the 10-/11-CM2-Z series, configured with a 25mm bore, extended 200mm stroke, and multiple auto-switches (M9PSAPC) for comprehensive position detection. The long suffix indicates multiple switch positions and configurations, enabling detection of the piston at multiple points along the 200mm travel for multi-position sequencing and precise motion control in clean room automation systems.

Why specify multiple auto-switches on a single cylinder? Multi-switch configurations enable equipment controllers to detect not just the fully extended and retracted positions, but also intermediate positions along the stroke. This is essential for applications requiring controlled deceleration zones, multi-stop positioning, workpiece handoff at specific stroke positions, and fault detection through position monitoring during the cylinder's travel. The 200mm stroke provides substantial linear travel for transfer mechanisms and positioning systems.

The "L" mounting type with 25mm bore creates a versatile medium-force cylinder with reach suitable for workpiece transfer between stations, automated tool exchange mechanisms, and loader/unloader applications in semiconductor and pharmaceutical clean rooms. The CM2 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance alongside clean room compliance.

The "10-" clean series provides fluorine grease, controlled assembly, and particle generation grade 1 performance. RoHS compliant and designed for integration into complex clean room automation sequences requiring position feedback.
