NITRA® Pneumatic Cylinder Position Sensors - CPS Series Air Cylinder Switches

• Interfacing pneumatic actuators and electrical control systems for pneumatic position control
• Offering superior electronic switch performance and reliability at mechanical reed switch prices!

The NITRA CPS Series of cylinder position switches offers a robust, yet cost-effective, interface between pneumatic or hydraulic actuators and electrical control systems. Using state-of- the-art magnetic sensing technology, these switches are designed for use with cylinders that have a magnet incorporated in the cylinder piston. They can be used to provide cylinder position indication, cycle count, or to confirm operation.

• NITRA cylinder switches are now available in nine styles with accessories to fit many different styles of cylinders or actuators.
• The switches are designed for general purpose applications on most popular cylinder brands with sensor grooves, on round body cylinders using CPSB Series mounting bands or on tie rod cylinders using CPSA Series adapters.
• Harsh duty applications can use the CPSF Series switches with CPSS stainless steel mounting bands if needed.

Features

• Solid state reliability, no moving parts for longer life
• PNP or NPN electronic switch output
• AMR sensing technology with small hysteresis for precise sensing
• GMR sensing technology for basic industrial applications
• Compact and easy to mount on round body, tie rod, and extruded body cylinders
• LED switch status indication
• Integral cable with M8 or M12 wiring connector or 2-meter wire leads
