T-Slot Cylinder Sensors

The cylinder sensor can be easily inserted from above into the T-slot where it clicks home. For switch point positioning the sensor can simply be moved in the slot. It is fixed definitely using the slotted / hexagonal socket screw.
Non-contact sensors virtually work without wear and often achieve a longer life than Reed switches. This saves expensive repair and downtimes.

  • Safe fastening in the slot to prevent mechanical stress
  • Easy fit ‘drop from the top’ into a slot
  • Quick disconnect and prewired versions
  • Molded cable provides very good strain relief
  • High protection rating for the requirements of harsh industrial environments

Accessories for cylinder sensors – Mounting adapters

Accessories are available to adapt T-slot cylinder sensors to other types of cylinders, including smooth body, tie-rod, dovetail and integrated profile cyclinders.

To determine the correct accessory for smooth body cylinders, measure the outside diameter of the cylinder with a micrometer.  Select a fixing strap based on that measurement.

For tie-rod and integrated profile cylinders, measure the rod on the cylinder and select the appropriate adapter.
