Switches & Sensors
ER Series, ET Series, and ERV Series:
Switches for ER, ET, and ERV products are equipped with permanent nitrile barium magnets on the bearing carriage. These magnets serve to activate available Hall Effect sensors or reed switches.
HALL SENSORS
Two types of Hall effect sensors are available for use with ET Series and ER Series actuators. The normally open sensor is typically used for mid-position sensing, such as homing applications. The normally closed sensor is generally used to indicate over-travel at the end of the stroke, and is used in a safety circuit to prevent damage to components caused by over-travel.
REED SWITCHES
Reed switches are available in a normally open or normally closed configuration. The low amp switch is suitable for connection to PLCs or other low current devices. The high amp switch can be used to drive sequencers, relays, coils, or other devices directly. Not compatible with TTL level I.O. Logic (switch will work with TTL level if wired backwards but LED will not light).
ETR Series Global Sensor
The ETR Series products use the new global drop-in position sensing sensor. These CE approved sensors are available world-wide in both reed and solid state versions with five different mating connection styles. These low profile sensors can be mounted anywhere along the cylinder body to provide accurate feedback of rod position.
