definition
During mechanical installation or cylinder operation, it is
sometimes required to know the cylinder position in relation
to the “zero” position given in the cylinder drawing.
To do this, it’s first required to know L
t0
(=length of pushing
tube which is visible when cylinder is in the “zero” position
on the cylinder drawing – please have a look at the cylinder
drawing) – as examples, see below some drawings illustrat-
ing L

Then, it’s required to measure L

: equivalent dimension of L

when cylinder is in any position.

Then, cylinder position in relation to the “zero” position given
in the cylinder drawing is equal to L
