MPS-025CLTP0 Manufacturer Series, MPS-025CLTP0 | Sick Magnetic Cylinder Sensor - Position Sensor Pneumatic Position Detector, IP67, 12 → 30V dc, MPS-C, with LED

Overview
At a glance
Position sensor for direct mounting in C-slots on pneumatic cylinders and grippersSensor variants with measuring ranges of 25 mm to 200 mmAnalog outputs (for current or voltage), switching output, and IO-LinkMounting on other cylinder types (e.g., round body cylinders) is possible with adapters
Your Benefit
Rapid mounting and exchange of sensors with drop-inStraightforward installation as no additional mechanical components or position elements are requiredCan be integrated into the machine at any time, as the sensor is attached to the cylinder externallyEasy adjustment of sensor settings and parameters during operation using a teach pad or IO-LinkMore flexibility compared to conventional cylinder sensors, as it is possible to define multiple switching points in the smallest of spacesExcellent reliability thanks to the rugged sensor design and non-contact measurement principleAdvanced diagnostic options thanks to data transmission via IO-Link
MPS-C position sensors continuously detect the piston position of pneumatic actuators using a direct, non-contact method. They can be mounted in C-slots without the need for additional accessories. The sensor settings can be adjusted during installation and during operation later on, using a teach field or IO-Link. The sensors continuously supply data via analog outputs or IO-Link, enabling flexible machine concepts and making it possible to solve tasks in areas such as quality monitoring and process control in conjunction with pneumatic cylinders and drives. This continuous transfer of position data upgrades the functionality of the pneumatic cylinders by making them more intelligent – and, as a result, more versatile.
Applications
Positioning of grippers when installing a gearshift assemblyMonitoring of the part position when ultrasonic welding plasticsHeight measurement of a component using the MPS-CDouble layer detection for printed circuit boardFlexible positioning of cylindersMeasuring the film tensionDetection of gripper position and material wear in roof tile manufacturing
