SICK RZT7 CYLINDER SENSORS
Description
Product Description
The SICK RZT7-03ZRS-KW0 is a compact magnetic cylinder sensor designed to detect the position of a piston inside compatible pneumatic cylinders. It uses a reed switching element to detect the magnetic field produced by a magnet integrated into the cylinder piston. When the piston reaches the sensor's detection area, the sensor changes its switching state and sends an electrical signal to a PLC or other control system.
Designed for T-slot cylinder applications, the RZT7 series supports reliable piston-position monitoring in industrial automation. Its compact 29.5 mm housing, 3-wire AC/DC electrical connection and 400 Hz switching frequency make it suitable for applications requiring fast and dependable position detection. The sensor features an LED status indicator for convenient operation monitoring, reverse-polarity protection and IP65/IP67 enclosure ratings for protection against dust and water under specified conditions.
The RZT7-03ZRS-KW0 operates with a supply voltage of 5–30 V AC/DC and provides a normally open (NO) output function. Its cable connection and compact construction make it suitable for automated machinery, pneumatic handling systems, packaging equipment and industrial production lines.
