To obtain maximum switching
distance center switches +/- 4mm
To prevent damage it is recommended that a 2mm gap
be maintained between the actuator and sensor
To prevent damage it is recommended
between the actuator and sensor
For more detailed misalignment characteristics refer to the misalignment curves
that a 2mm gap be maintained
distance 8 - 14 mm
To obtain maximum switching
distance 8 - 14 mm
Note: To prevent damage to the MC2 it is recommended to leave a 2mm gap between the Sensor and Actuator.
The maximum switching distance and misalignment tolerance will be obtained when the MC2 is mounted on non-fer-
rous material. Mounting the MC2 on ferrous/magnetic material will reduce the switching distances and tolerance to
misalignment.
