Noncontact limit and reference switches

M-228.10S, dimensions in mm

M-228.11S, dimensions in mm

M-229.25S, dimensions in mm

M-229.26S, dimensions in mm

Stepper mike with 2-phase stepper motor as powerful direct drive, or slim design version with gearhead motors.

Nonrotating end piece for uniform motion prevents wobble, torque, and wear at the point of contact. Noncontact limit switches protect the mechanical system. A direction-sensing reference switch supports automation applications. Integrated position indicator. Versions with direct drive include handwheel for manual adjustment.

In conjunction with the networkable C-663.12 Mercury Step single-channel controller, the linear actuators offer good performance at an economically attractive system price for single-axis and multi-axis configurations.
