The Sick MZT8-28VPS-KR0 sensor is a high-precision device designed for seamless integration with T-slot cylinders, offering reliable detection and positioning in a variety of industrial applications. This sensor features a PNP normally open (NO) output and operates with a 3-wire connection, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of control systems.
Crafted with a robust housing, the sensor is engineered to withstand harsh industrial environments, boasting an IP68 protection rating, which signifies its dust-tight construction and ability to resist water ingress. The compact form factor with a 24 mm housing length allows for easy installation in space-constrained areas.
The sensor operates within a supply voltage range of 10 V DC to 30 V DC and is designed to minimise energy consumption with a current draw of just 10 mA without load. It also features a low voltage drop of ≤ 2.2 V, ensuring efficient operation. The sensor's switching frequency reaches up to 1,000 Hz, allowing for rapid detection and response to cylinder position changes.
For ease of installation, the sensor comes with a cable equipped with an M8 connector, which is suitable for drag chain applications, highlighting its flexibility in dynamic applications. The cable's specifications include a conductor cross-section of 0.14 mm² and a cable diameter of Ø 2.9 mm, with a bending radius that accommodates both fixed and moving installations.
The Sick MZT8-28VPS-KR0 sensor is a reliable choice for industrial automation tasks requiring precise and durable T-slot cylinder position sensing. It is a testament to Sick's commitment to delivering sensor solutions that enhance efficiency and reliability in industrial processes.
