The IFM MK5110 T-slot cylinder sensor is a compact magnetic position sensor designed for pneumatic cylinder applications. Its PNP normally open output, 10…30 V DC supply and high switching frequency provide reliable feedback for automated cylinder movements. The sensor is designed for direct T-slot mounting and offers a compact 25 x 5 x 6.5 mm body. It is suitable for packaging, assembly, material handling, machine automation and other industrial applications requiring dependable piston position detection.
Explore performance details, construction highlights, applications, and technical information in one clear overview.
The MK5110 is designed for direct installation into T-slot cylinders. Its compact 25 x 5 x 6.5 mm construction helps minimize the required installation space. The fastening arrangement supports practical positioning and adjustment. The sensor can be placed at the required switching point. This makes it suitable for compact pneumatic machine designs.
The sensor detects the magnetic piston using a response sensitivity of 2.8 mT. Its travel-speed capability above 10 m/s and 10,000 Hz switching frequency support rapid repetitive cylinder movements. The normally open switching output provides useful feedback to control systems. This allows the sensor to support automated sequence control. It is suitable for high-cycle industrial equipment.
The MK5110 operates from 10…30 V DC and uses a PNP output. It provides reverse-polarity, short-circuit and overload protection. These functions support dependable integration into industrial automation systems. The sensor provides switching-status indication for setup. This makes commissioning and troubleshooting more convenient.
