MPS and MZT8 Magnetic Cylinder Sensors 

Cost-effective, accurate solutions for piston detection 

 
   Web Part Container
The MPS (Magnetic Positioning Sensor) and MZT8 Magnetic Cylinder Sensors offer the most cost-effective and accurate solution for piston detection, saving time and money while getting measurement or position feedback. The MPS is a non-contact linear measurement solution with 4 – 20 mA and 0 – 10 V analog output for cylinders and grippers with various stroke sizes. The MPS is the only cylinder sensor solution on the market that offers four different stroke sizes: 32, 64, 96 and 128 mm, providing increased measurement flexibility to better meet customers’ needs. The MZT8 is the most flexible and compact pneumatic cylinder sensor for t-slots. The MZT8 offers the shortest sensor housing length on the market - only 24 mm, ideal for short stroke cylinders and small mounting spaces. Also, the MZT8 has a custom ASIC chip with GMR technology inside that provides the most precise magnetic piston detection.
