Description

Piston rod locking unit for cylinders to ISO 6432 standard
Piston rod locking unit series “WBZ” is a mechanical device to fit on ISO 6432 cylinders (series “U” and “UP”); its function is to lock the piston rod in any position. This solution allows to lock the cylinder stroke each time that there’s a pressure fall. Locking force is, in any case, higher than the force given off by the cylinder fed at 10 bar. It has static operation (cylinder piston rod not moving); it’s necessary to preliminary stop the cylinder piston rod before proceeding with mechanical locking. Piston rod locking unit series “WBZ” must not be considered as a safety device.
