NEW
hydraulic components. The revolutio-
nary new design of the Heavyweight
Series 2 units combines the piston
and inner tube into a single compo-
nent and provides more than double
the energy capacity of previous units
in the same envelope size. They also
24 have a fully integrated mechanical
stop. The smaller sizes up to type Piston Rod
SC2 190, have a dynamic membrane with Integrated
seal which allows direct installation Positive Stop
into the end cover of pneumatic cylin-
ders. (For end position damping max.
7 Bar) The greatly increased energy
capacity coupled with overlapping
effective weight ranges covering from Rolling Diaphragm
1 kg up to 6 350 kg makes the new Seal
Series 2 units ideal for a wide range
Main Bearing
of handling equipment and rotary
actuators. With the optional Side Load
Adaptor fitted they can cope with side
loads of up to 30 degrees.

Mechanical Stop
The Magnum Series units have a built in Stop Collar
(mechanical stop) which also serves as the front
adjuster.
If using a shock absorber without a Stop Collar it is
important to install a mechanical stop 0.5 to 1 mm

46 General
For optimum heat dissipation do not paint the shock absorber. For applications in environments with acids, dusts or
powders, abrasives, steam or water please protect the shock absorber and/or consider the special accessories on page
43. The shock absorber should be securely mounted onto a flat and smooth surface of adequate strength.
Self Compensating Models
The MC family of shock absorbers are self compensating. Providing the effective weight on the application remains wit-
hin the band given in the capacity charts then no adjustment is necessary for changes in weights, speeds or propelling
force. These units are available with five standard operating bands (me min. – me max.) and are identified by the suffix
number after the model which goes from -0 (very soft) up to -4 (very hard).
The optimum deceleration is achieved when there is no abrupt change in the load velocity at the beginning or the end
of the shock absorber stroke.
If there is a hard impact at the start of stroke f use the next softer version (i. e. lower suffix number).
If there is a hard setdown at the end of stroke f use the next harder version, or mount two units in parallel.
Alternatively change to a larger bore size unit. Contact ACE for further advice.
Adjustable Models
The adjustment has a graduated scale from 0 to 9. The adjuster in the body has a side mounted locking screw which
should be loosened (1/2 turn max.) with a hex. key before commencing adjustment. The Magnum Series units can be
adjusted by the hex. socket at the rear of the body – or by rotating the front stop collar. Both adjusters are internally
connected and will show the same adjustment value on the scales as they are turned. After installation cycle the equip-
ment a few times and turn the adjustment until optimum deceleration is achieved (i. e. no abrupt change in the load
velocity observed at the beginning or at the end of shock absorber stroke). The shock absorber is delivered set at 5.
If there is a hard impact at start of stroke f adjust the unit softer i. e. towards 9 on the scale.
If there is a hard setdown at end of stroke f adjust the unit harder i. e. towards 0. After adjustment relock the lock screw.
Adjustment approaching “0” means: a) Impact velocity is too low: consider changing to Model type ML or:
b) Shock absorber selected is too small: use next larger size or mount 2 units
in parallel.

Repairs
It is possible to overhaul Ace shock absorbers in M 33 sizes and larger. We would recommend that damaged or worn
shock absorbers are returned to ACE for repair. You will find that this is more economic than the comparative cost of
repairing yourself. Spare parts and seal kits etc. are available however if required.

ACE can also offer more than its already extensive range of standard products covering body sizes from M6 up to
M130. For over 25 years we have designed and developed many customer specific “specials”. These include units with
special damping characteristics for unusual applications or non-standard materials or operating fluids. Special seals
and mounting accessories for customers specific applications are also available.
Below are a few examples of the thousands of special options that we have provided in the past.

With the aid of the characteristic curves above you can estimate the proportion of the total energy that will be absorbed.
Example: With impact energy of 50 Nm the Energy-Stroke diagram shows that a stroke of about 31 mm is needed. On
the Force-stroke diagram you can estimate the proportion of absorbed energy to rebound energy at this stroke length.
Force characteristics are similar for all sizes. Examples above are for Model TR 93-57.
(Static characteristics for impact velocities under 0.5 m/s are available on request.)

radial deformation of the TR-L series
provides a very long and soft deceler-
ation with a progressive energy ab-
sorption towards the end of the stroke.
The excellent temperature characteris-
tic of the material provides consistent
damping performance over a temper-
ature range of -40°C to 50°C. The tube
Damper has been specially developed
for applications that require very low
reaction forces. The actual force gen-
erated depends upon the length of the
tube damper chosen. The TUBUS TR-L
type is suitable for a wide range of
applications that require protection
from shock or impact anywhere along
a straight line. Typical applications
include mining equipment, dockyard
handling equipment and on baggage
handling and conveyor systems. The
special stepped mounting screws sup-
plied make installation very quick and
simple. The TR-L Series have been de-
76 veloped to provide maximum stroke
in the minimum mounting space.

This is achieved with the unique Dual-
Profile Concept of the TC-S models.
For Energy-Management-Systems the
TC model types provide a cost effi-
cient solution with a high return force

The very small and light package size
from ø 64 mm up to ø 176 mm covers
an Energy absorption capacity ranging
from 450 Nm up to 12,700 Nm/cycle.
The excellent resistance to UV, sea-
water chemical and microbe attack
together with the wide operating tem-
perature range from - 40°C to 90°C
enables a wide range of applications.

TUBUS-series
Overview of Profile Dampers
Physical Properties of TUBUS Profile Dampers ACE TUBUS Profile Dampers are high performance
damping elements made from a special Co-Polyester
Elastomer.They have a high energy absorbing capacity
compared with other materials.
The TUBUS-series comprises 5 main types with over
75 individual models.
The excellent damping characteristics are achieved as
a result of the special elastomer material and the
worldwide patented construction design. This enables
us to change the characteristics of the elastomer
material so that individual and distinct damping cur-
ves are possible.
TUBUS dampers offer a considerable performance

per unit weight per unit volume rubber, urethanes and steel springs.
Comparison of Damping Characteristics The innovative TUBUS dampers absorb energy while
exhibiting the following damping characteristics:

Calculation steps
1) Calculate max. torque damper will be exposed to.
(with example shown max torque is at a = 0)
2) Decide upon rotation speed desired.
3) Choose a rotary damper from catalogue that can
handle the torque calculated above.
4) With the aid of the damper performance curves,
check if the r.p.m. given at your torque corresponds
Closing Torque T to the desired closing speed of the lid.
T = L / 2 · m · g · cos a Ncm. 5) If the r.p.m. is too high – Choose a damper with
a higher torque rating.
Note: for a uniform lid assume centre If the r.p.m. is too low – Choose a damper with
of gravity is at distance L/2 from pivot. a lower torque rating.
Mountings to avoid:
The output shaft should not be exposed to side loading.
