SICK Pneumatic Sensor Cable with Connector M8, IP68 Rated, 30V DC, LED Indicator, Model MZT8-03VPS-KP0

SICK MZT8-03VPS-KP0 Pneumatic Sensor Cable with Connector M8 and IP68 ingress protection is specifically engineered for industrial automation applications featuring pneumatic cylinders. It operates at 30V DC and includes an LED indicator for switching status visibility.

This sensor belongs to the MZT8 series and is constructed with high-quality Plastic Polyamide 12 housing, making it robust against demanding environments. It is compatible with T-slot pneumatic actuators, widely used in manufacturing assembly lines and other industrial settings where precise piston position detection is crucial.

The sensor's magnetic cylindrical measurement principle ensures accurate contactless position sensing. The electrical interface uses a PNP output function that is normally open, facilitating straightforward integration with PLC systems. It supports a switching frequency up to 1000Hz, which allows applications requiring rapid cycle times to achieve reliable performance.

Designed for rugged environments, the device is rated IP68, allowing it to sustain dust ingress and continuous immersion. Temperature operation ranges from -30°C to 80°C, making it suitable for elevated temperature conditions found in industrial and fluid power applications.

The sensor cable features a PUR sheath optimized for drag-chain cable routing, improving durability in dynamic mobile machine parts. It also withstands mechanical shock up to 30g, vibration from 10 to 55 Hz, and torsional stress of ±270°/10cm, ensuring longevity and functional reliability.

Applications include position detection on T-slot profiles, integration with SMC CDQ2 and ECDQ2 rails, end-of-stroke monitoring on various cylinder types, compact pneumatic actuators, and use in assembly line automation.

The sensor provides reliable PNP switching output for automation control. Its compact 2.9mm diameter design supports versatile mounting options. IP68 rating offers protection against water and dust ingress. Electrical connection uses a robust M8 cable connector with PUR-coated cable.

Wide operating temperature range suits various industrial environments. LED indicating switching status enhances diagnostic capabilities. Short-circuit and reverse polarity protections reduce wiring errors. Magnetic sensing technology enables precise piston position tracking.

Durable polyamide 12 housing assures mechanical and chemical resistance.
