Cylinder Reed Switch | CS1-G Magnetic Sensor | DC/AC 24V-110V

This CS1-G magnetic reed switch is for pneumatic cylinders. It finds where the piston is by sensing the magnet inside the cylinder. You can use it to know when the cylinder is fully out or fully in. This gives important information for automated machines. Features and Benefits - Built-in LED light - The light comes on when the sensor is active, making setup and fixing problems easier. - Works with many voltages - It runs on both DC and AC power from 24V to 110V, so it fits different systems. - Normally Open (NO) output - The switch closes the circuit when it senses something, giving a simple on/off signal for a PLC or relay. - Groove-mount design - It slides directly into the slot on compatible pneumatic cylinders, like SDA or QCK types. Applications - Automated processes - Use the sensor to start the next step, like making sure a clamp is closed before drilling. - Part positioning - Put two sensors to check both the start and end points of a cylinder's movement in a pick-and-place system. - Safety circuits - Connect the switch to a safety relay to ensure a guard is in place before a machine can run. What It Is This is a Cylinder Reed Switch, specifically the CS1-G model, designed as a magnetic sensor. It functions as a proximity sensor, detecting the presence of a magnetic field without physical contact. The sensor operates across a DC/AC voltage range of 24V-110V. Its primary role is to provide a signal indicating the position of a component within a pneumatic cylinder. Key Uses & Applications The CS1-G Magnetic Sensor is engineered for use with Pneumatic Cylinder SDA/QCK types, acting as a pneumatic cylinder magnetic sensor. Proximity sensors like this are crucial in automation for precise position sensing. They are widely applied in industrial settings to monitor the movement of pistons within cylinders, enabling automated control and sequencing of operations. This provides reliable feedback for machinery. How to Choose When selecting a proximity sensor, consider the operating voltage; this CS1-G model supports DC/AC 24V-110V. Ensure compatibility with your existing pneumatic cylinders, specifically SDA/QCK types for this sensor. To test a proximity sensor, apply the specified voltage and observe its output when a magnetic field (e.g., from a piston) is introduced. Look for a clear ON/OFF signal change. Consider the sensor type; this is a magnetic reed switch, suitable for magnetic detection.
