ADVU-80-10-P-A

Product information

Product Overview

The ADVU and AEVU are Festo’s classic compact cylinders — single- or double-acting, with a wide variety of mounting options. Festo’s own positioning is that they need 50% less installation space than a comparable standards-based cylinder to ISO 15552, that the piston rod is available with a female or male thread, and that the family is designed for position sensing. The ADVU is the through-rod style; the AEVU is the version with an extended piston rod. Both share the same compact barrel and the same accessory system.

This page covers ADVU-80-10-P-A — Festo type code ADVU-80-10-P-A, order number 156568. Everything below is taken from Festo’s own product data for this order number: the technical values, the category path, the GTIN and the lifecycle notice are all reproduced from the manufacturer’s page rather than paraphrased, so you can check them against Festo’s documentation before you buy.

Official Documentation

Every figure on this page comes from Festo. Use the manufacturer’s own documents to verify it:

• Festo official product page — ADVU-80-10-P-A — the source of the technical values and the lifecycle notice above.
• Festo official series catalogue (PDF) — Festo’s own catalogue for this series, including the type code breakdown and the ordering data for every variant.

Ordering This Part

Before we quote, please confirm:

• the complete Festo type code, exactly as it appears on the drawing or the nameplate — not just the series name;
• the order number if you have it, so we can cross-check the code against Festo’s catalogue;
• the quantity and the delivery address;
• for cylinders, the stroke and the mounting style, because both are fields in the order code;
• for valves and sensors, the electrical connection and the voltage, because these are fields in the order code.

Send us a photograph of the nameplate if the code is hard to read — that is usually the fastest way to avoid shipping the wrong variant.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between ADVU and AEVU?
They are the two variants in the same family: the ADVU is the standard compact cylinder and the AEVU is the version with an extended piston rod. Mounting and port geometry are shared, so the difference matters mainly where the rod has to reach further into your fixture.

Is the ADVU still available?
Festo’s product page for these variants currently shows the notice that a newer product is available and points to alternatives. We quote the ADVU where the customer needs a like-for-like replacement, and can propose the current alternative with its own order code if a new design is being specified.

Can I get an ADVU with a longer stroke?
Stroke is part of the type code, so yes. Send us the full code — the ADVU uses the pattern ADVU-<piston diameter>-<stroke>-<cushioning>-A.

Which sensors fit an ADVU?
The family is designed for position sensing; the sensor slots and the magnet piston accept Festo cylinder sensors. Give us the cylinder code and we will match the right switch.
