Festo SME-8 Series Pneumatic Position Detector, 30V Voltage, Bipolar Output Function - SME-8-K-LED-24, Numeric Part Number:150855


This pneumatic position detector monitors cylinder piston position using a magnetic reed sensing principle and provides a cable-based electrical connection suitable for T-slot mounting. It is built for automated systems requiring a compact, externally mounted switch with Visual status indication and is rated for use across a wide ambient temperature range.

Features & Benefits


• Polyethylene terephthalate housing offers chemical-resistant protection
• Bipolar contact output enables detection of both polarities
• LED indicator delivers immediate Visual confirmation of switch state
• IP67 and IP65 ingress protection supports dusty and wet environments
• Operates between -40°C and 60°C for broad thermal tolerance
• Rated for operation up to 30V to suit low-voltage controls

Applications


• Suitable for cylinder position sensing in pneumatic actuator systems
• Ideal for T-slot mounted sensors on industrial automation equipment
• used with Compact pneumatic cylinders requiring visible status feedback
• Can be used for control logic inputs in electrical panels at low voltage

What connection method does it use for wiring into control systems?


It employs a fixed cable electrical connection designed for direct wiring into PLCs or junctions.

How does the sensor indicate when the piston reaches position?


An integrated LED provides on-site, immediate indication of switching events.

What materials contribute to mechanical durability in industrial settings?


The unit combines high-alloy steel components with epoxy resin and polycarbonate elements for mechanical robustness.

Can it be used where occasional splashing occurs?


Yes, the dual IP65/IP67 ratings mean it can tolerate splashes and temporary immersion conditions.

What electrical switching capability does it provide for interfacing?


The device offers a contact-type switching function with bipolar behaviour compatible with 30V circuits.
