SELECTION OF POSITION MAGNETS (MAGNET AND MAGNET SPACER MUST BE ORDERED SEPARATELY)
A choice of three magnets are available with the Model MT rod-style sensor. Magnets must be ordered separately with Model MT position
sensors. The standard ring magnet (part number 201542-2) is suitable for most applications.

The robust
Temposonics
Model MT Redundant sensor's
new
stainless-steel position sensor is designed for direct stroke measurement in
mobile hydraulic cylinders. The Temposonics Model MT Redundant sensor can be installed from the head side or the rod
side
of the cylinder
depending on the cylinder design.
Installation Notes:
1.
Use a non-ferrous
circlip
to fix the magnet
2.
The
piston rod bore
is
dependent on hydraulic pressure and piston velocity. Minimum
drilling
for
a
(10
mm rod)
should
be
13.5
mm.

Installation methods are possible
in
magnetic and non-magnetic applications (shown in
Figures 3 and
4)
and are entirely dependent on the
cylinder design. While the
most common
method of installation is from the rod side of the cylinder, installation from the head side of the
cylinder is also possible. In both installation methods, the
sensor
seals the cylinder by using an 0-Ring and backup
ring which
is installed on
the sensor housing
.

CONNECTION TYPE
The Temposonics® M12 connector system (shown in
Figures
7,
8, 9 and 10),
meets the most stringent protection requirements important
for the difficult environmental conditions of mobile
hydraulics
applications. Protection type IP69K makes the robust metal housing not only
completely dust- and waterproof, even the harshest cleaning measures cannot damage
the
sensor.
