Germany GmbH & Co. KG is not responsible under any circumstances for damage
to the product itself or any consequential damage caused by the product resulting
from improper handling of the product. If Parker-Hannifin Manufacturing Germany
GmbH & Co. KG is responsible for a defect, Parker-Hannifin Manufacturing
Germany GmbH & Co. KG shall be authorized, at its discretion, to undertake
improvements or deliver replacements.
In compliance with ISO 9000, all products are equipped with a type plate and a
note of care that are bound to the device. The type plate must not be removed or
damaged under any circumstances.
Parker Hannifin Manufacturing Germany GmbH & Co. KG shall not be held liable,
regardless of any legal basis, except for cases of intent or gross negligence;
injuries to life, body or health; or defects of malicious nondisclosure or whose
absence was expressly guaranteed in writing.
Furthermore, if there is compulsory liability under the Product Liability legislation for
personal injury and property damage to privately used objects, in the event of
negligent breach of significant contractual obligations, Parker Hannifin
Manufacturing Germany GmbH & Co. KG shall also be liable for cases of ordinary
negligence; however, this is limited to damages that are contractually typical and

1.8 Conditions of utilization
General introductory notes
With the electro cylinder you bought a product which was manufactured and tested
before delivery with the utmost care.
Please take your time to read the following notes which you ought to follow closely
during setup and operation.
The operation of the electro cylinder is only permitted within the limit values stated
in this manual.
Unless, all claims under the warranty will become void and a reduced service life or
even damages must be expected.
Please compare the operating data with the stated limit values especially
with reference to:
Stroke length and setting of the limit switches, those must be set so that there is a
sufficient safety travel at both ends of the travel stroke

Introduction
ETH Mounting Instructions
14 192-550002N10 ETH March 2019
Even if the limit switches were already mounted at our premises, they must be
adapted according to suitable values before operation!
Thrust and traction force in the effective direction
Lateral force (e.g. as a component of the effective force, but also due to own
weight on horizontal mounting, especially with parallel motor mounting and long
travel strokes)
Speed
Acceleration
Environmental conditions (e.g. temperature, contamination)
Please do take possible pulses caused by moved masses into consideration for
the operating data. (Even small abrupt loads can cause damage, especially if
they occur rather often at the same place.)
The limit values for the thrust and traction force, lateral force, speed and
acceleration are partly influenced by several factors and can change
depending on:
The size of the electro cylinder
Screw lead
Direct or parallel drive via toothed belt transmission
Mounting method
Mounting orientation vertical or horizontal resp. inclined
Travel Stroke
Note on cylinder mounting
Do always use all available mounting possibilities and respect the requirements
listed in chapter "Screw tightening torques for the mounting of the ETH cylinder
by the customer". (see page 16)
If the motor used with the electro cylinder should be able to exceed individual limit
values of the cylinder, the respective values for the motor must be limited in the
control by appropriate parameterization. The parameterization should even be
reduced down to the values necessary for operation.
This would, for example provide a hint to a possible damage or to preventive
maintenance if wear-induced extensive friction of the machine or cylinder would
trigger an error message of the controller.
The internal end stops of the electro cylinder may under no circumstances be
accessed during operation. The internal end positions may only be accessed by
the cylinder in setup mode and only for determining the end positions resp. for
relubrication with a low force of a few N (torque limitation if possible below 10 %)
and very slowly (max. 2 % of the nominal speed).
The lifetime of the electro cylinder depends strongly on the degree of power
exploitation and on impermissible operating states occurring - even if only for a
short time.
Depending on the operating conditions (rotation speed, load, etc.) increased
surface temperature in the area of the drive may occur. When touching it during
operation slight injuries from burning may occur. Don't touch the product during
operation. At maintenance, service and repair always take care that the product is
cooled off before starting work.

...................................................................................................................................... 15
Mounting with mounting threads on the cylinder .............................................................. 15
Mounting with mounting accessories ............................................................................... 16
Mounting Instructions ...................................................................................................... 20
Do only use the appropriate mounting parts offered in the Parker product
catalogue for the respective mounting methods. These mounting parts are
especially designed for the ETH.
Please note:
The cylinder housing must be mounted without tension or contortion.
The cylinder housing must be precisely aligned to the load direction of motion.
Occurring lateral forces on the cylinder must be taken into consideration.
2.1.1. Mounting with mounting threads on the cylinder
The easiest and most economic method of mounting is using the available
mounting threads on the cylinder body. Make sure that the mounting surface is
level and that the cylinder is mounted without tension and contortion. This method
of mounting is only possible, if the lower side of the mounting surface is accessible.
ETH100&125 does not have a mounting thread at the bottom of the cylinder.
Dimensions: please refer to ETH catalogue.
For cylinders in IP version, the cylinder is enclosed in a protective coating with
possibly not constant layer thickness. Therefore it can happen that when using
the front or rear mounting surfaces (only for parallel motor mounting) the
alignment of the cylinder deviates from the ideal 90° position.

2.1.2.1 Cylinder mounting with mounting plates or foot
mounting brackets
If the underside of the mounting surface is not accessible, mounting plates or foot
mounting brackets are available as accessories.
The rear mounting plate cannot be fixed with inline motor configuration.
If you fix the cylinder only at the rear end (e.g. also with a rear clevis) please
respect the effective direction of the known forces. Critical are above all lateral
forces in horizontal or vertical direction.
2.1.2.2 Screw tightening torques for the mounting of the
customer’s ETH cylinder
In order to simplify the calculation of the mounting screws for fixing the cylinder in
your application, the following table gives an overview of the required screw quality
resp. the required tightening torque (including additional boundary conditions),
under the assumption that 100 % of the permissible axial force are required.
Additionally, take care that no other loads act on the screws.
If these specifications are not adhered to, the screw joint might fail.
The failure of screw joint may lead to severe injuries.

* For protection classes "B" and "C", we recommend for instance a GEOMET® coated screw (thin layer
corrosion protection), which must be in strength class 12.9. For the ETH100&125, no GEOMET coated
screw is required. (as the bracket is not available in stainless steel).
(1) torque controlled tightening
(2) when screwing into S235 JRG1 grade steel
(3) provide suitable washer under the screw head
(4) safety factor against slipping is 1.6 in this case. Otherwise, at least 1.8
(5) for power transmission from rod guide to your application please use the dowel pins
For all mounting options the following applies:
Joint area must be dry and free of grease
We recommend to secure the screws with a liquid bolt retaining compound (e.g.
Loctite 242)
With mounting option F, H and J, do not mount the cylinder horizontally on one
side as in this case the bolted connections are improperly high burdened due to
pitching torques and cross forces. In this case always support the cylinder!
With ETH032-080 the mounting thread F* on the underside of the cylinder can be
used as support.
With ETH100&125 the transporting thread (see page 10) can be used as support.
For this a screw M12x1.25, quality 8.8 must be used. Furthermore, a minimum
screw-in depth of 15 mm must be adhered to. Tighten screw with tightening torque
30 Nm.

2.1.2.6 Mounting the rod guide (option R)
The rod guide is only available for fram sizes ETH032 ... ETH080!
Figure 8: Mounting the rod guide
Place the cylinder on a suitable installation surface.
For the following steps, the piston rod of the cylinder must be retracted.
Unwrap the rod guide and remove the transportation lock between the rod guide
module (see Figure 8 Pos.1) and the front panel (see Figure 8 Pos. 3).
The rod guide is smooth running and can easily slide out of the rod guide module
depending on its position. Hold the rod guide horizontally.
Pull out the front plate with the guide rods from the rod guide module and set
them aside.
Slide the rod guide module (see Figure 8 Pos. 1) onto the centering collar of the
ETH cylinder.
Please note: with the relubrication option in the centre of the profile, the
lubrication opening in the profile can be concealed by the guide rods.
Screw together the rod guide module with the screws supplied (see Figure 8 Pos.
2) and the required tightening torque. For tightening torques see chapter 2.1.2.2
screw tightening torques for the mounting of the ETH cylinder on the customer’s
sde, option F.
Loosen the screw (see Figure 8 Pos. 5) thus the lock nut (see Figure 8 Pos. 4)
can move freely.
Slide the front panel with the guide rods back into the rod guide module.
Turn the lock nut on the piston rod of the ETH cylinder and lock it with the
hexagon nut (see Figure 8 Pos. 6).
Clamp the lock nut with the front panel by tightening the screw (see Figure 8 Pos.
5) with the required tightening torque.
To avoid damaging the cylinder, the lock nut must be used to hold the cylinder in
place.
Tightening torques: ETH032 = 6,5 Nm, ETH050 = 16 Nm, ETH080 = 29 Nm.
For power transmission from the rod guide module to your application please use
dowel pins.
We recommend to secure the screws with a liquid bolt retaining compound (e.g.
Loctite242)

2.1.3. Mounting Instructions
2.1.3.1 Side Load
Please respect the maximum permissible side loads depending on the vertical or
horizontal mounting position.
Permissible lateral force: please refer to ETH catalogue
http://www.Parker.com/Literature/Electromechanical
Europe/Literature/190_550017_ETH_katalog.pdf,
http://www.Parker.com/Literature/Electromechanical
Europe/Literature/192_550017_ETH_Catalog.pdf.
2.1.3.2 Mounting of the payload
When mounting the payload, please make sure that no torque is applied to the
thrust rod. Use the flat on the thrust rod to apply counter pressure, see indication
"SW" "Cylinder Rod Version": please refer to ETH catalogue.
Figure 9: Mounting of the payload
When fixing the load on the thrust rod end, do always apply counter pressure on
the respective flat, KV (SW) with an appropriate tool!
Otherwise, the internal anti-rotation protection might be damaged.
Connect the payload always with the end of the thrust rod so that occurring lateral
forces are minimized. If the payload is separately guided, even minimal deviations
between this guiding system and the cylinder length axis can generate high lateral
forces and reduce the service life of the electro cylinder considerably.
The possibilities to avoid this problem:
Use a flexible coupling at the thrust rod end.
This coupling can compensate up to 3 mm axial offset and up to 10°angular
offset.
Use other thrust rod connection elements (accessories), which are able to
compensate certain deviations such as rod clevis or spherical rod eye
Use a flexible cylinder fixing device (accessories) such as rear clevis or center
trunnion.
Do only use the rod ends supplied by Parker.
Only use the nut delivered with the rod end option M as counter screw.
The connection provided from the customer is always screwed in the thread of
option M.
"Cylinder Rod Version": please refer to ETH catalogue.
