Replaces / Drop-In Replacement For
The Festo DGSL-20-100-PA (part number 544011) is a current production unit. For drop-in replacement compatibility with other Festo mini slide models, verify bore and stroke specifications match your existing application. Other DGSL series models with different stroke lengths (e.g., DGSL-20-20-PA, DGSL-20-50-PA) require port and mounting verification.
Works With
- Festo pneumatic control systems and manifolds
- Standard G1/8″ threaded pneumatic fittings
- Festo proximity sensors for position sensing (optional A suffix)
- Industrial compressed air networks at rated working pressures
