4 Tips for Magnetic Cylinder Sensor
- Correct Model Selection: Always verify the groove type (C, L, or T) and dimensions on your pneumatic cylinder before selecting the sensor model to ensure a proper physical fit.
- Installation Check: After installation, slide the cylinder piston to trigger the magnetic sensor for pneumatic cylinder and confirm the indicator LED lights up, verifying correct operation and positioning.
- Wiring Polarity: Pay attention to polarity when connecting the two wires, as incorrect connection will prevent the sensor from functioning.
- Avoid Mechanical Stress: During installation, avoid pulling the cable excessively or bending it at a sharp angle directly at the cylinder sensor housing to prevent damage to the internal connections.
