     Integral flow control incorporates a flow control valve or device that limits the amount of air or fluid that enters the cylinder.
 
   Integral Sensor
 
     Cylinder is equipped with an integral sensor to monitor position and/or proximity.
 
   Intrinsically Safe
 
     The cylinder can be used in hazardous environments.
 
   Magnetic Switch
 
     Magnetic switch (Hall effect sensor, reed switch) indicates whether thruster position is in retracted or extended position.
 
   Multi-position
 
     Endplate can be actuated to different positions along its stroke, not just the endpoints.
 
   Non-rotating
 
     Multiple rods or key feature to prevent the plunger from rotating.
 
   Protective Boot
 
     Covers that protect moving parts against environmental damage.
 
   Self-locking
 
     When there is a loss of signal, the device will lock to its current position.
 
   Shock Absorbers
 
     Pneumatic or hydraulic fluid absorption of shock.
 
   Thermal Overload Protection
 
     Motor has a thermal switch which trips when a preset temperature is exceeded.
 
   Water Resistant (Sealed)
 
     Rated to resist moisture which could cause corrosion.
