TYPE: ET SINGLE ENDED
TYPE: ETD DOUBLE ENDED
The basic construction of these Cylinders is identical to
Type “E” and feature two Cylinders in tandem having
two pistons mounted on one common rod. Pneumatic
operation with hydraulic control can be obtained by
operating the rear Cylinder pneumatically and filling
the front Cylinder with oil and piping its ports in series
using a flow control valve. The output force of a single
Cylinder can be almost doubled using a Tandem Cylin-
der and piping both rear ports together and both front
ports together, which will apply the working pressure to
both Cylinders at the same time. This is particularly use-
ful when space limitations preclude the use of large bore
Cylinders, and the force required is greater than that
supplied by smaller bore units. FOR DIMENSIONS & MOUNTS
Bore Sizes Available: 1-1/2”, 2”, 2-1/2”, 3” & 4”. SEE PAGES 17 - 21
Maximum Stroke Available:
Type “ET”: 60”.
Type “ETD”: 40”.
