The IFM MR0130 T-slot cylinder sensor with reed contact is designed for reliable piston-position detection in pneumatic cylinders where an extended cable connection is required. The MRT3038BBKOA/R/6M/ZH configuration provides a 6 m cable and compact T-slot mounting. It is suitable for larger automation machines, production lines, assembly systems, packaging equipment and pneumatic handling applications requiring reliable cylinder-position feedback.
Explore performance details, construction highlights, applications, and technical information in one clear overview.
The MR0130 uses reed-contact technology to detect the magnetic piston position of compatible pneumatic cylinders. Its T-slot design supports direct installation into the cylinder body. The sensor provides a switching signal that can be used by a PLC or other control system. The 6 m cable makes the model suitable for machines requiring longer electrical routing.
The 6 m cable provides additional flexibility for larger machine layouts. It can connect a cylinder-mounted sensor to a remote connection point without requiring an additional extension cable in suitable installations. This helps simplify signal routing on distributed pneumatic systems. Cable routing should be planned to avoid mechanical damage and excessive bending.
The sensor responds to the magnetic field of the cylinder piston. When the piston reaches the sensor's detection zone, the reed contact changes state and provides position feedback. The signal can be used for actuator sequencing, machine interlocks and process control. This makes the sensor suitable for conventional industrial automation.
The MR0130 is suitable for production lines, packaging machinery and large pneumatic automation systems. It can monitor piston positions over repeated machine cycles and provide feedback to the control system. Its 6 m cable is particularly useful where cylinders are positioned far from electrical connection points. The compact T-slot design helps maintain efficient machine construction.
