SICK T-Slot Pneumatic Sensor Cable with Connector M8, IP68 Rated, 30V DC, LED Indicator MZT8-03VPS-KRD

The SICK MZT8-03VPS-KRD pneumatic sensor cable with connector M8 is designed for reliable detection of piston position in pneumatic actuators. Featuring a compact T-slot construction, it allows easy insertion into pneumatic cylinders, linear slides, and grippers with quick mounting using combined fixing screws requiring only a quarter turn.

This sensor cable operates at 30V DC and has a robust polyamide 12 plastic housing that withstands operating temperatures from -30°C to 80°C, with high-temperature options up to 100°C for demanding environments. The enclosure ratings of IP67, IP68, and IP69K ensure excellent resistance against dust, water, and high-pressure cleaning, thereby extending device life and reducing maintenance needs.

The sensor utilizes magnetic cylindrical measurement principles combined with patented GMR technology and a SICK ASIC to provide precise switching with minimal multiple switching operations for improved machine performance. It outputs a PNP switching action with a normally open function and is equipped with an LED indicator for operational feedback.

Its compatibility with all standard T-slot cylinders, and adaptability to round rod, tie-rod, profile cylinders, and those with dovetail grooves via adapters, make it highly versatile for pneumatic sensor applications.

Common industrial applications include monitoring clamping cylinders, detecting cylinder end positions and press travel, checking gripper states, presence and position of trays, and position monitoring for tilting devices. It is suited for use in consumer goods industries, metalworking, machine building, handling and assembly technology, electronics and solar, and automotive sectors.

Compact structure enables mounting in short-stroke cylinders. LED indicator provides visual operational status. IP67, IP68, and IP69K ratings safeguard against harsh environments. Durable polyamide 12 housing extends sensor lifespan.

Patented GMR technology ensures accurate piston position detection. Operating temperature range suitable for varied industrial conditions. Easy installation and replacement reduce downtime. Suitable for multiple cylinder types via adapters.

Enhances machine output with precise switching at the first attempt. Low maintenance costs due to resistance to shock and vibration.
