Functional principle
Magnetic-field sensors with extended temperature range for the detection of radial magnetic fields are often applied in linear slide and
guide systems and pneumatic grippers.
A great advantage is the implementation of a
flexible overtravel distance in linear slide systems using a magnetic tape.
Based on the fact that magnetic fields can
permeate non-magnetizable metals, it is possible to detect the magnet mounted in the linear slide system via the omnipolar sensor.

Mounting instructions/Description Mounting instructions
Thanks to the mounting lip, the sensor can be insert-
ed into the groove from above with one hand. Mount
the sensors as follows using the patented wing screw:
The wing screw and the female thread feature a left-
hand thread. Two small plastic lips keep the screw in
position, ready-to-install. Turn the screw clockwise.
The screw moves out of the thread and hits the upper
grooves with the wings. The sensor is thus pressed
down and locked in position. A few degrees up to ap-
proximately 1.5 turns of the screw with a slotted screw-
driver (blade width 0.5 mm) or a 1.5 mm Allen key are
sufficient to ensure vibration-proof fastening, depend-
ing on the shape of the slot. A tightening torque of 0.4
Nm is sufficient for safe mounting without damaging the
cylinder. The sensor can now withstand an axial and ra-
dial tensile load of F=100N applied on the cable. A ca-
ble clip is included in the scope of delivery. It enables
smooth cable routing in the groove and ensures that
the cable is fastened as securely as possible. The cor-
responding accessories for mounting on other cylindri-
cal housings must be ordered separately.
