Cylindrical Sensors are used where high positional accuracy in sensing is required. The cylindrical housing makes it easy to insert into recesses with external clamping. These Cylindrical Magnet Sensors are available from the smallest 2.5 mm diameter ultra-miniature packages to the standard 6.0 mm diameter packages, and matching actuators, are also available.

The MS-212 having a 2.6 mm diameter housing, is suitable for use in very tiny applications such as dentists drills, and feeding tubes, the MS-214 and MS-216 Sensors are suitable for use in general purpose white goods applications and the MS-216-L which withstands higher shock and vibration limits, is suitable for use in automotive applications.

All these sensors come in two versions, one for switching low level 10 W loads, and the other, for switching up to 60 W line voltage loads. Product pages list drawing, complete electrical and miscellaneous specifications,  Actuation distances, Usage notes and application examples.
