AHP Merkle Hydraulic cylinder DIN standard cylinder

Hydraulic cylinder DIN standard

Standard cylinders are hydraulic cylinders designed and manufactured according to DIN ISO 6020/1 (DHZ 160) or ISO 6022 and DIN 24333 (DHZ 250).

With standard cylinders, distinction is made between pressure ranges 160 bar and 250 bar. According to this classification, AHP Merkle offers two types: the Standard Cylinder DHZ 160 and the Standard Cylinder DHZ 250.

Standard cylinders can be ordered with various mounting types from the standard version, the foot mounting, and rectangular and round flange to the trunnions. In addition, AHP Merkle offers an extensive range of accessories for standard cylinders.

Of course, our standard cylinders are also equipped with hardened, ground, hard chrome plated piston rods.

AHP Merkle standard cylinders are distinguished by 100% quality in the development, design and manufacture.

Block cylinder

DHZ 160 - DIN/ISO 6020/1

Maximum operating pressure 160 bar
Hydraulic Cylinder to DIN 6020/1
Ground, hardened and hard chrome plated piston rods
Multiple mounting options available
Piston diameters from Ø25 mm to Ø160 mm, additional diameters on request
Large range of accessories

DHZ 250 - ISO 6022 / DIN 24333

Maximum operating pressure 250bar
Hydraulic Cylinder to ISO 6022 and DIN 24333
Ground, hardened and hard chrome plated piston rods
Multiple mounting options available
Piston diameters from Ø50mm to Ø200mm
Large range of accessories

From the block cylinder with long stroke, the block cylinder with anti-twist protection or the block cylinder with variable system connection and a block cylinder with adjustable position request, block cylinder with inductive proximity switch to block cylinder with mechanical switch and block cylinder for magnetic field sensors – AHP Merkle offers the right hydraulic cylinder for almost every requirement!

The position of the connection, the mounting method and the function type can be combined and ordered individually. Our modular range of products enables easy orientation and allows a simple combination of the required features, such as block cylinders with through piston and end position cushioning, but also block cylinders with inductive request in the end position or integrated over the entire stroke.

Many other options, such as the selection of the seal type, venting via vent screws, standardized and modified groove dimensions for locking at higher pressures, block cylinders with centering collar and safety thread complete the offer. AHP Merkle offers a wide range of block cylinders.

However, all block cylinders have one thing in common, they stand for 100% quality in development, design and manufacture.
