Areas requiring lubrication
When bringing the piston rod and the piston together, make sure that the pressure pipe
and the position magnet are not damaged. Lubricate the indicated areas via the oil
inlet.

Cylinder handling after encoder installation
4.7.1
Washing and drying the cylinder
To protect the connecting cable and male device connector from ingress of cleaning
agents, please observe the following:
Encoder with M12 male connector system
•
Drying temperature: max. 90 °C
•
Pressure of the cleaning fluid: ≤ 5 bar
•
Use of a mounted metal protection cap
Preventing ingress of cleaning agents into the electronics when washing cylinders with
an already installed M12 male connector.
To protect cylinders with an installed linear encoder against water ingress during wash‐
ing, a brass cap
(ideally with sealing insert)
can be screwed onto the M12 male
connector. Contact SICK for the
relevant information.
Encoder with cable connection / installed male device connector
•
Cable connectors / male device connector: protect against ingress of cleaning
agents using suitable sheathing
•
Cable glands: protect against ingress of moisture
