The MZT8 cylinder sensor from SICK is the flexible solution for detecting the piston position in pneumatic actuators. The sensor can be inserted into cylinders very easily and, with the screw-and-washer assembly, tightened with just a quarter turn of a sl

Multiple switching operations are suppressed, which results in increased machine performance. The MZT8 is available in a range of variants up to an enclosure rating of IP 69K and with a temperature resistance of up to 100 °C. This ensures the sensor has a

Can be used in all standard cylinders, linear slides, and grippers using the T-slot and – with the help of adapters – in round rod, tie-rod, and profile cylinders, and cylinders with a dovetail groove
Insertion of the sensor into the slot from above makes

Can be used at temperatures up to 100 °C
Very rugged housing with enclosure rating IP 67, IP 68, or IP 69K extends the service life of the sensor
Increases machine output though precise switching at the first attempt
Quick and easy mounting using an Allen
