About the AirTAC CS1-M
The AirTAC CS1-M is a reed cylinder switch for PB, MA, MAL, MI, MF cylinders: its normally open reed contact closes when the piston magnet passes. It switches 5 to 240 V AC/DC up to 100 mA (10 W max.), needs no supply of its own and has no leakage current. The standard version has a red LED; the X version has none.
It mounts with a band on round-barrel cylinders (PB, MA, MAL, MI, MF); the code ends in the barrel material and bore so the band fits. It is rated IP67 (NEMA 6) and works at -10 to +70 °C.

Where the CS1-M Is Used
End-of-stroke sensing
Signals when the piston reaches either end, so the next step can start.
Mid-stroke positions
Slide the switch along the barrel to detect any intermediate position.
PLC and relay inputs
Wires straight to a PLC input or relay with two wires.
Choosing the Right CS1-M Configuration
Choose the type: 2-wire, red LED; 2-wire, no LED (X).
Choose the connection: 2 m lead (020); 3 m lead (030); 5 m lead (050); 10 m lead (100); M8 connector, 150 mm lead (C08); M12 connector, 150 mm lead (C12). The C08 and C12 versions end in a 3-pin male straight connector; the mating female cable is ordered separately.
Then the cylinder barrel: S for stainless steel barrels, A for aluminum barrels, followed by the bore (S06, S08, S10, S12, S16, S20, S25, S32, S40, S50, S63, A20, A25, A32, A40).
