Festo SME-8 Series Pneumatic Position Detector, IP68/IP65, 5-OE - SME-8M-ZS-24V-K-2,5-OE, Numeric Part Number:543872


This pneumatic position detector senses piston location on T-slot actuators and provides electrical signalling for automation systems. It is built for inline mounting on T-slot cylinders and connects via a two-core cable to deliver switching information for control circuits. The unit uses a magnetic reed-based measurement principle and includes an LED status indicator to assist with installation and troubleshooting.

Features & Benefits


• High-alloy stainless steel housing improves corrosion resistance
• Reed switching principle provides contact-based detection down to -40°C
• Voltage capability up to 30V supports low-voltage control systems
• IP68 and IP65 ratings allow submersion and washdown environments
• LED indicator simplifies Rapid Visual confirmation of operation
• Cable 2 wire connection enables straightforward electrical integration

Applications


• Suitable for position monitoring of T-slot pneumatic cylinders
• Ideal for factory automation feedback loops on linear actuators
• used with Compact pneumatic cylinders in confined assemblies
• Suitable for harsh-environment limit detection in washdown areas
• Used for simple on/off position signalling in control panels

What temperature range can it operate within?


It can function across an ambient span from -40°C to 70°C, supporting cold-store to warm-machine-room conditions.

How is the device connected electrically?


It uses a two-core cable for wiring into control circuits and is rated for use at up to 30V.

What type of switching mechanism is employed?


A reed switch inside the sensor reacts to the piston’s magnetic field to provide discrete switching pulses.

Can it withstand immersion and high-pressure cleaning?


The enclosure meets both IP65 and IP68 classifications, permitting protection against jets of water and temporary submersion.

What material protects the sensor body in corrosive settings?


The enclosure is constructed from a high-alloy stainless steel to resist corrosive atmospheres.
