Cylinder Sensors
Cylinder sensors are used to ensure cylinders reach their extended and retracted positions reliably each cycle. KEYENCE cylinder sensors are the world's first with a bar LED indicator, providing live piston position throughout the length of the stroke. The desired output windows can be set with the simple push of a button and can be easily identified with the large indicators. These devices also utilize top-down installation, eliminating the need to remove the cylinder when installing the sensor.
Product Lineup
The new CS-L from KEYENCE focuses on visibility, easy install, and simple wiring. This is the world’s first linear cylinder sensor with a bar LED. The LED makes it possible to view the live piston position down to a resolution of 1 mm (3.94 mil). This sensor is mounted top-down on the cylinder, eliminating any disassembly to attach, remove, or adjust the sensor. The sensor can also be set via the push of a button as the sensor covers the length of the cylinder's stroke. Cycle time and downtime can now be reduced with impact level and stroke time information being provided from the sensor. Wiring is cut in half by providing 2 outputs from each sensor down a single wire. Loose wires or M8 connectors make integration into any setup easy.
