The Q25L is a magnetically actuated linear displacement sensor designed to detect piston position on pneumatic cylinders. With measuring ranges of 100, 125, 160, and 200 mm, the sensor is well-suited for applications that require precise signal

The Q25L is a magnetically actuated linear displacement sensor designed to detect piston position on pneumatic cylinders. With measuring ranges of 100, 125, 160, and 200 mm, the sensor is well-suited for applications that require precise signal transmission over long measuring distances, such as pneumatic pumps, slides, blanking, or molding systems. Because it uses an external magnet as a position indicator, the sensor may be used in applications like moving platforms, point line measurement, or other specially designed equipment without a cylinder. The device has a repeat accuracy of less than 0.1% of the measuring range and a linear deviation of less than 1% of the full scale. It also features a blind zone of only 20.5 mm on each end, making it easy to use in restricted spaces. TURCK, Minneapolis, MN. (800) 544-7769.
