Description

The SICK MPS-160TSNP0 is a magnetostrictive linear position sensor engineered for continuous, non-contact position detection within pneumatic cylinders. Its core technology provides high-resolution analogue output proportional to the piston’s absolute position, enabling precise control and feedback in automated systems. The sensor is calibrated for a 160mm stroke length, delivering stable and repeatable measurements.

Housed in a rugged, IP67-protected enclosure, the sensor is resistant to dust, oils, and temporary immersion, making it suitable for demanding factory floor applications. The integrated 4-pin M8 cable simplifies installation and connection to control cabinets. Designed for T-slot cylinder profiles, it ensures optimal magnetic coupling and mechanical stability without requiring complex mounting hardware.

Frequently Asked Questions

What type of output signal does the MPS-160TSNP0 sensor provide?

The MPS-160TSNP0 provides a continuous analogue output signal, typically a voltage or current proportional to the absolute piston position within its 160mm range. This allows for real-time position monitoring and integration into PLC analogue input modules or dedicated controller boards for precise closed-loop control.

How is this sensor mounted and what cylinders is it compatible with?

This sensor is specifically designed for T-slot mounting, meaning it attaches directly to pneumatic cylinders with a standard T-slot profile (T-Type). This design ensures optimal alignment with the internal magnet and provides a secure, low-profile mechanical fit without requiring additional brackets or adapters.

What is the operating voltage and connection method?

The sensor operates on a wide DC supply voltage range of 15 to 30 volts, making it compatible with common 24VDC industrial power systems. It connects via a fixed 4-wire cable terminated with a 4-pin M8 connector, which provides a secure, sealed interface for power, ground, and the analogue output signal.
