Sensor for C-slot pneumatic cylinders

March 12, 2008

Balluff has introduced the Balluff BMF 273, a compact sensor especially designed for use with C-slot-equipped pneumatic cylinders. The sensor, designed to indicate piston stroke end position, is 25.7 long and fits completely within a standard C-slot.

The BMF 273 is secured by a non-stripping screw, while the cable is also equipped to be secured within the C-slot by a custom-designed mini pop-in fastener. The highly accurate, low hysteresis sensor, designed to replace outmoded Reed and Hall-Effect switches, comes with an LED indicator light and uses advanced magnetoresistive technology.
