The IFM MR0121 T-slot cylinder sensor with reed contact is designed for dependable piston-position detection on pneumatic cylinders. The MRT3021BBKOA/R/0,3M/ZH/US configuration provides a 0.3 m cable and compact T-slot mounting arrangement. It is suitable for assembly machinery, packaging systems, material handling equipment and automated pneumatic applications where reliable switching feedback is required for machine sequencing and cylinder control.
Explore performance details, construction highlights, applications, and technical information in one clear overview.
The MR0121 provides a compact sensing solution for monitoring magnetic piston positions in T-slot cylinders. Its reed-contact principle generates a switching signal when the piston enters the sensing zone. The sensor can be positioned directly inside the cylinder slot, making it suitable for space-efficient machine designs. It is intended for conventional industrial automation systems.
The sensor responds to the magnetic field of the piston and switches without mechanical contact with the moving part. The resulting signal can be connected to a PLC, relay or automation controller. Its 0.3 m cable provides a convenient connection for compact installations. The sensor can be adjusted to the required switching point during commissioning.
The T-slot mounting concept allows the sensor to be installed close to the cylinder body. The compact construction reduces the need for external mounting brackets. Proper adjustment of the sensor position allows the desired piston position to be detected. This supports reliable feedback for automated pneumatic movement.
The MR0121 is suitable for pneumatic cylinders used in production and assembly machinery. It can confirm actuator positions and support automated machine sequences. The sensor is useful in packaging and handling equipment where repetitive cylinder movement must be monitored. Its compact design also supports installations where available machine space is limited.
