5.2 Product description
Compact slides of the CS 6/20 and CS 6/40 series are precision devices. In
order ensure safe and reliable operation it is important that the modules are
handled with care.
The compact slides are highly compact, pneumatic modules and are used for
the shock-free linear movement of permanently mounted loads in the defined
ambient and operating conditions.
The assembly position of the CS modules can be vertical or horizontal.
The CS 6 consists of the base body (Fig. 5, 1) with the pneumatic connections,
the guide (Fig. 5, 3) and the cylinder that moves the slide (Fig. 5, 2). The end
positions are each adjusted via a stop screw with integrated shock absorber.
The end position can optionally be sensed by means of a
∅
3 mm inductive
switch (not included in the scope of delivery,

Chapter 5.3 „Safety
instructions“). The proximity switch is fixed in the C-slot of the base body.
