SICK MPS Series Position Sensor 30V dc Analogue Signal MPS-160TSTP0 / 1050685

SICK MPS-160TSTP0 / 1050685 Position Sensor from the MPS Series is a high-precision industrial automation sensor designed for continuous linear position monitoring with analogue signal output. Capable of operating at a maximum supply voltage of 30V dc, this sensor is ideally suited for automation environments requiring robust performance and reliable feedback.

The sensor features a durable IP67 rated enclosure, providing excellent resistance against dust and water, making it suitable for use in challenging environments such as washdown or dusty industrial settings. Electrical connectivity is ensured through a 4-Pin M8 Connector, facilitating straightforward installation.

Designed primarily for piston position feedback on pneumatic T-slot, dovetail groove, profile, and tie-rod cylinders, it is well suited for machine control tasks requiring analogue displacement signals. The built-in teach-in function enables easy on-site calibration and setup, saving time during installation or maintenance.

With a typical resolution of 0.03% FSR and repeat accuracy of 0.06% FSR, the sensor provides fine position discrimination and consistent measurement accuracy over multiple cycles. The sensor has a minimum operating temperature of -20°C and a maximum of 70°C, supporting a wide range of industrial conditions.

Operating with shock resistance up to 30g for 11ms and vibration tolerance from 10 to 55 Hz at 1mm amplitude, it is mechanically robust. Furthermore, the sensor samples approximately every 1ms, ensuring rapid feedback for precise control.

A front-mounted LED indicator provides clear device status and fault information during operation. Users should note that the attached PUR cable must not be bent below 0°C to prevent damage.

Operates up to 30V dc for industrial environments. Robust IP67-rated protection against dust and water. Analogue voltage or current output compatible with PLCs. Resolution of 0.03% FSR and repeat accuracy of 0.06% FSR. Built-in teach-in for simple calibration and setup.
