What should be paid attention to when using controllable gas springs?

The precautions for using controllable gas springs are as follows:
Pay attention to the use temperature of controllable gas springs.
Do not store for long periods of time. Otherwise, due to the early aging of the sealing ring, the reaction force may decrease.
The reaction force deviates slightly due to the product and varies due to the influence of temperature. Depending on factors such as usage environment and frequency, the reaction force may decrease (please replace if the required reaction force cannot be met).
Do not use or store the piston rod in an environment that will cause rust or in a chemical gas environment.
Do not damage the cylinder and piston rod. If the piston rod is wrapped with tape or plastic rope, it may get stuck inside due to adhesive or fiber adhesion, resulting in nitrogen and oil leakage.
Before using a controllable gas spring, be sure to check the piston rod for rust, damage, adhesive or impurities.
Do not apply bending loads, torsional forces, etc. Connect to the cylinder and piston rod. The use of only controllable gas springs to bear the load can result in imbalanced load, leading to leakage of nitrogen and oil.
When used for rotational motion, please prevent the hinge from loosening.
Do not stretch the controllable gas spring beyond a large length. Even during large stroke (compression), there should be approximately 10 millimeters left between the end of the stroke.
Additionally, please do not rapidly expand or contract (reference standard above 1m/s).
When installing the controllable gas spring, please face the cylinder side upwards and the piston rod side downwards, so that the internal oil can protect the rubber seal. Do not use within an angle range of 60 degrees or above, and do not tilt for temporary storage above 60 degrees.
The principle of controllable gas springs is similar to mechanical springs, both of which are internal energy storage products. Springs work through elastic potential energy, while controllable gas springs push the piston rod inside the cylinder through the compression and rebound of stored gas, allowing the side doors to open and close. Therefore, the tightness of energy storage in a gas spring determines its service life.
The main requirement for using controllable gas springs is elasticity or lifting force. Therefore, when designing gas springs, the compression force should be reduced, the pressure difference ratio should be minimized as much as possible, and the basic constant force should be achieved. Only in this way can users effortlessly close the side door, making it easy for people of different ages and physical strength to use it.
