Introducing the New Standard of Pneumatic Control NEW Linear Cylinder Sensor & Smart Valve CS/SP Series
Pneumatic Cylinder Sensor with Visible Indication and Easy Installation Linear Cylinder Sensor CS-L Series
Live Piston Position Visibility
A large indicator light runs the full length of the sensor, delivering instant, real-time visibility of piston position for faster setup and simplified troubleshooting.
Easy Setup with 2-Point Teach
Unlike traditional cylinder sensors, no tedious alignment adjustments are required to ensure an output from the cylinder. Simply press the button to create a set point at the desired location of the stroke. Easily lock the settings into place to avoid unwanted changes after set up.
Install Without Cylinder Removal
Utilizing top-down installation, the CS can be installed without taking a cylinder off the machine. Simply press into the slot and tighten down.
Indicates Cylinder Performance
Cylinder sensors can output the position information of the piston and the impact level, providing benefits in a wide variety of situations such as the calculation of cylinder stroke time and the early detection of device problems.
Only the PNP M8 connector type can be used.
Reduces Impact by Switching Between High-Speed and Deceleration Flow Paths
The valve has two internal flow paths. Using piston position from the CS Linear Cylinder Sensor, it automatically switches between the high-speed flow path and deceleration flow path. This allows the cylinder to slow down just before impact, providing stable shock absorption without mechanical wear and tear.
Simple 4-Step Set Up
Equipped with onboard configuration, set-up is easily done with a 4-step process on the display of the SP-C. No external license or software is required.
Reduce Cycle Time with Pneumatics
Increase the speed at which the cylinder operates to shave off cycle time without concern of damage to the machine, cylinder or product. Adjustable thresholds for deceleration allows for complete control.
Long Term Durability
Shock absorbers are commonly used and are easily damaged and broken over time with wear and tear. Utilizing air cushioning, no parts or hardware are required to take the brunt of the force.
Fully Customizable Valve Manifolds
Select valve units without restrictions on type or size.
Easily add or remove valves at any time, regardless of your initial configuration.
Complete Pneumatic System Status Monitoring
This series includes pre-programmed software for full pneumatic monitoring and control. Using the web server or control panel, remotely track operating conditions, check cylinder strokes, configure sensor outputs, receive detailed diagnostics on errors, access predictive maintenance alerts, and more.
Reduce and Simplify Pneumatic Wiring
Wiring pneumatic cylinder sensors has never been simpler with the design of the SP-V valve. Each valve is equipped with a dedicated M8 QD connector to seamlessly integrate cylinder sensors that are installed on the machine. The dedicated connector removes the need for external IO blocks or additional wiring in the PLC. All outputs and data from the sensor will be taken back with the SP-N communication unit to decrease time on programming.
Reduce Downtime by Quickly Identifying the Cause of Problem
Understand at a glance the root cause of errors to eliminate the time spent troubleshooting with full pneumatic status control. Easily identify exactly where the error is occurring.
