Model EOS-2 Tactile End of Stroke Pneumatic and Hydraulic Sensor

The Canfield Connector EOS differential pressure switch is a compact device used in place of proximity switches to sense the end of stroke and/or clamping pressure of a linear actuator. Sensing the pressure on the exhaust and pressure side of the double acting cylinder enables the EOS to determine when the end of stroke is reached. The end of stroke is determined based on pressure, not proximity. Trip points are adjustable based on forces applied by the actuator. This unit is especially useful in applications with inconsistent size work pieces, clamping, staking, swaging, welding or where electronic magnetic proximity devices do not work as well. The EOS can replace proximity devices on applications where these devices are used to sense end of stroke. Installation is easier than standard proximity devices and cylinders can be made of any material. Cylinders need not incorporate any magnetic pistons or special flanged end caps.
