Installation calculation
We hope to help you choose the right SUPERSEN Gas Spring for your application, you can use the following approximation formula and application sketch.
  • The Stroke A (mm)
  • The Extended Length B (mm)
  • The Extension Force F1 (N)
  • And The Type Of Connection
Determining The Extension Force F1 (N) At 20℃



G=Weight Of Flap In KG
L=Distance From Center Of Gravity To Pivot Point In mm
d=Effective Lever Arm Of Gas Spring In mm, Flap Open.
13=Conversion Factor KG-N+Safety Margin
S=Flap Attachment (Suggest Approx. 2/3 L)
n=Number Of Gas Spring (Standard:n=2 Pcs)
H=Effective Leverarm Of Gravity In mm, Flap Open.

Example:
G=30KG, H=400mm, d=200mm, n=2

Installation Instructions:
  • Install without twisting.
  • Pivot only at the connection provided.
  • Avoid lateral forces.
  • It is recommended to install the unit with the piston rod facing down, if possible.
  • Protect piston rod from dirt, paint and damage.
