Their 1-inch hex aluminum or stainless steel housing are suitable for mobile hydraulics, factory automation machinery, or oil and gas exploration equipment, and mount to the cylinder with a standard male o-ring port thread. The MHP-7 series sensors are based on a proprietary contactless inductive sensing technology (without a magnet) with a short stroke to length ratio. They employ a 7mm diameter probe inserted into an 8 mm (5/16 inch) gun-drilled hole in the cylinder rod to measure position rather than a ring magnet or pot contact spool. They are offered in ranges from 25 to 600mm full scale with a wide variety of on analog I/Os and either connector and cable terminations.
