Official Part Number 185943
GTIN Standard 4052568146320

Technical Overview

The Festo DSM-10-90-P-A-FW (Part Number: 185943) is a precision double-acting rotary vane actuator engineered for highly automated manufacturing environments. Sized at 10, it executes a precise 90-degree fixed swivel angle supported by internal YSR elastic cushioning rings at both limits, mitigating impact forces and protecting attached loads. With a repetition accuracy of 1 degree, it produces a reliable theoretical torque of 0.85 Nm at a standard 6 bar operating pressure. The mechanical structure features a high-alloy stainless steel flanged shaft and an anodized aluminum housing for excellent structural rigidity and corrosion resistance. It connects via standard M3 pneumatic ports and operates between 2.5 and 8 bar. Furthermore, position detection is fully supported via integrated magnetic proximity sensor interfaces, allowing seamless integration into closed-loop control systems.
