This proximity sensor from Festo is suitable for hydraulic linear motion positioning or clamping applications. It has a compact design and mounts directly to actuators, saving space in your hydraulic system. The sensor uses electromagnetic induction to precisely detect and position objects. Its double-acting function means it can move both forwards and backwards.
The unit's green LED (light-emitting diode) display allows you to quickly read its switching status and supply voltage and solenoid valve output. The sensor's plastic housing has an IP (ingress protection) 67 rating, meaning it's completely dust-tight and water-resistant. This makes it an ideal choice for harsh industrial environments where air contaminants or moisture may be present.

• Wide operating range of -25°C to +70°C makes it suitable for use in many environmental conditions
• Polarity protected for all types of electrical connections, making it versatile
• PBT (polybutylene terephthalate) housing for good electrical insulation
• Convenient to install as no additional accessories or adjustments are needed for mounting
• Can be used on clockwise and anti-clockwise rotating actuators with 90° and 180° rotation
