The NITRA CPS Series of pneumatic position switches offers a robust, yet cost-effective interface between pneumatic actuators and electrical control systems. Using state-of-the-art AMR magnetic sensing technology, these magnetic cylinder switches are designed for use with pneumatic cylinders that have a magnet incorporated in the cylinder piston.
- These cylinder sensors can be used to provide cylinder position indication, cycle count or to confirm operation.
- Designed to provide a low profile, flush installation on cylinders with T-slot channels, these switches are also easily mounted on round body cylinders using CPSB series mounting bands.
- Integral LED indication provides switch status for speedy switch positioning and troubleshooting.
- Pre-tested for use with NITRA pneumatic cylinders, these cylinder switches are also suitable for use with other brands of cylinders with magnetic pistons.
Features
- Electronic switch output, PNP or NPN, normally open and normally closed
- Solid state reliability, no moving parts for longer life
- AMR sensing technology with small hysteresis for precise sensing
- Compact and easy to mount on round body and T-slot pneumatic cylinders
- LED switch status indication
- Available with an M8 wiring connector or 2-meter integral cable with wire leads
- Electronic cylinder switch performance at mechanical reed switch prices
