Standard Pneumatic Clamps
For added safety and control, DE-STA-CO now makes it easy for users of its pneumatic clamps to determine exactly when these clamps are fully open and fully closed. To sense the clamp’s open and closed positions, small, low voltage Hall Effect switches are installed in a groove machined into the side of the cylinder body. The switches are actuated by a magnetic piston ring as the cylinder’s piston moves up and down. The open or closed condition of the switches is then read by programmable logic controller (PLC) or other electronic device. All you need to do is determine what switch is right for the application. Order one switch if you want to sense only the open or closed position. Order two switches to sense both positions.
