3.2 Product characteristics
3.2.1 Product features
The MPS-G with 2 / 3 digital switching points and IO-Link (up to 8 switching points) is
used either as a magnetic cylinder sensor for non-contact detection of 2 end positions
or intermediate positions (up to 3 individually adjustable switching points in one hous‐
ing) or via IO-Link as a position sensor for non-contact linear position measurement
mainly in pneumatic cylinders, grippers and slides.
When using IO-Link, up to 8 switching points can also be set and additional actuator
diagnostic data can be recorded and output.
