The Canfield Connector Series 8D is a robust yet compact switch designed to sense position of pneumatic cylinders with magnetic pistons. The switch features an all encapsulated design with a metal over housing that protects the internal components from harsh environments. The switch comes in reed, or electronic versions and has either 9 ft. PVC or 8mm quick connect male pigtail A broad range of clamping styles make this a very versatile alternative for sensing round or tie rod type linear actuator. The switch comes standard with an indicator light that shows switching condition.
General Technical Data
• Temperature Range: Operational from -10° to +70°C • Shock: Operational up to 30G (11 ms.) reeds, 50G electronic • Vibration: Operational up to 9G parallel • Sensitivity and orientation: 60G parallel (standard minimum required for proper operation, as measured on sensor surface. Size of sensing area depends on size and strength of magnet and thickness of cylinder wall • Most versions designed to meet NEMA 6/IP67 specifications
