Proximity Switch

Proximity switches to signal “end of stroke” position may be ordered at either one or both ends of all cylinders for operation with air or hydraulic service to 3000 PSI.

Proximity switch housings contain epoxy potted, solid state electronics with sealed sensing probe that extends into cylinder to detect presence of rod mounted actuator with no surface contact. Switches operate with no parts subject to wear, adjustment, or tampering.

Preferred cylinder construction is suitable for use with either Turck Series “CRS” or Namco Style “EE 230” switches. Other commercial brand switches may be used to suit customer preference, but availability is dependent on construction modifications necessary.

Cylinders may be ordered with or without the proximity switch included. If ordered without the switch, Lynair, Inc. will advise the proper probe length necessary for operation.

Proximity switches may be located at any one of the four numbered side positions not occupied by an operating port or obstructed by the cylinder mounting.

“Stroke To Go” refers to the stroke travel remaining when the switch actuates. Lynair, Inc. cylinders are designed to give

a standard stroke to go distance of 3/16 inch. Cylinders can be furnished with custom “Stroke To Go” dimensions to suit customer requirements.

Switch detail dimensions, electrical specifications, and related technical data are detailed in Lynair, Inc. Bulletin “PS”.
