And this is how a Temposonics MH sensor can be integrated easily into a professional cylinder: The connector system is prefabricated and delivered by MTS together with the sensor, i.e. the contact carrier is already connected to the sensor conductors. During installation, the contact carrier is taken out of the cylinder through a bore hole and the flanged housing can be clicked in position easily from outside. Four standard screws must be tightened to mount the connector system on the cylinder and the job is done! Time-consuming solder and screw terminal connection of conductors, polarity errors or solder tags are history thanks to the simple “click-on mounting” method.
When installing the cylinder in the mobile machine, the Temposonics MH sensor with the new connector system can be connected at various angles using a universal M12x1 connector. Due to its minimum construction height, the installation of the cylinder is ideal where the installation has space limitations. Protection type IP69K makes the robust metal housing not only completely dust- and waterproof; even the harshest cleaning measures using high pressure equipment can’t damage the sensor.
