The Canfield Series 7000 proximity sensors are used to sense position on cylinders from 2 to 8 inch bore. This proven design is rugged yet cost effective. All switches feature a self adjusting clamp that grips standard NFPA and custom cylinders eliminating stocking requirements of many clamps for different bore sizes. The Series 7000 boasts the largest number of custom circuits to match applications found in the market. Examples include; 1 or 4 Amp reed switches, normally open, normally closed or SPDT switch types, reed or electronic sensing elements in the same package style, and the industry’s first 120 VAC Hall sensor. A wide range of enclosures and connector options are available.
General Technical Data
• Temperature Range: Operational from -20° to +80°C. • Shock: Operational up to 30G (11 ms.) reeds only. Not applicable for electronics. • Vibration: Operational up to 20 G (10 - 55Hz) reeds only. Not applicable for electronics. • Sensitivity and orientation: 85 gauss parallel 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.
