SMC VALVES D-A73C Auto Switch

SMC D-A73C internal circuit reed auto switch is used in pneumatic and hydraulic systems for automation & control applications. This switch detects the position of a piston or cylinder rod within the system by utilising a reed switch that activates by a magnetic field generated by a moving magnet embedded in the piston or rod. When the magnet aligns with the reed switch, it triggers an electrical signal, allowing for precise position sensing.

Features:

• This auto switch has a rectangular body style for integration into various industrial equipment and systems.
• It utilises a connector type for ease of installation & maintenance, ensuring a secure electrical connection.
• This device has a voltage rating of 24V, ensuring compatibility with common industrial voltage levels.
• It comes with a current rating of 0.04A to handle low-level electrical currents efficiently.
• This internal circuit reed auto switch has a rail mounting type for simplifying the installation process and ensuring stability in the setup.
• It includes vertical entry of wire for flexibility in how wires are routed and connected within the system.
• This component belongs to the primary type of proximity sensors, facilitating precise detection of nearby objects or components.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q. How can I tell if the fuse in Bussmann fuse block has blown?

A. A blown fuse frequently has a clear break in the fuse element and the fuse's transparent window (if applicable) might look discoloured. You can determine whether a fuse is intact or blown by using multimeters.

Q. What is the voltage requirement for this reed switch?

A. This D-A73C reed switch operates at 24VDC.
