PHD offers a wide variety of proximity switches and sensors to create an easy interface between the different controllers, logic systems, and PHD actuators utilized in automation and industrial manufacturing. There are many choices of reed, hall-effect, and other solid state switches that provide feedback for the many styles of pneumatic and electric cylinders, grippers, rotary actuators, and slides. PHD also offers an impact sensor that can show changes in stopping force on any moving device.

Designed specifically to provide an input signal to various types of programmable controllers or logic systems. Since Hall Effect Switches are solid-state, there are no moving parts to wear out. They offer an infinite number of trouble-free operations. Series 5360 Hall Effect Switches operate on DC current only.
Available in a DC model. They are ideal for use as inputs for many types of sequencers and programmable controllers.
Available for use on select PHD products making it easy to interface these actuators with various electronic controls. They are ideal for use as inputs for many types of sequencers and programmable controllers. In some cases, they can be used to drive some relays or valve solenoids. Series 5580 Reed Proximity Switches are available in a DC model.

Since Solid State Switches have no moving parts to wear out, they offer an infinite number of trouble-free operations. Series 5360 Solid State Proximity Switches operate on DC current only.
Provide independent and fully adjustable multiple position sensing on select PHD actuators. The Set Point Module provides independent adjustment of two set point positions from two sensors or allows one set point module to interface with two actuators. It also can be used with a single unit providing 4 adjustable set points throughout jaw travel or rotation. The solid state electronics with Hall Effect sensing technology provide for an infinite number of trouble-free cycles.
Fit into 4mm switch slots and feature two programmable outputs. The switch is solid state design and is simply mounted in a convenient location, such as middle of travel, then actuator is placed in first desired position and first output is set. The actuator is placed in the second desired position and the second output is set. Outputs retain settings even after power interruption.
Fit into 4 mm switch slots and are solid state for the longest life. Series JC1SD Solid State Switches are offered in 10 – 30 VDC current sinking (NPN) and current sourcing (PNP) versions for simple interfacing to system controllers and replaces PHD Series 6790 DC Switches.
Available in 65 - 120 VAC model for simple interfacing to sequencers and programmable controllers. They can be used to directly drive some types of relays or valve solenoids within the switch specifications stated. This design provides saving space and mounting versatility, the round design fits into grooves in the body of the actuator.
Designed specifically to provide an input signal to various types of programmable controllers or logic systems. These switches offer both 120 VAC or 10 to 30 VDC sink and source operation for maximum flexibility in interfacing with various electronic controls. Special current limiting feature is designed into each switch for protection against potential current inrush damage to switch components.
Available for use with PHD ISO Cylinders and on other select PHD actuators which use the “M” magnet option. Since Solid State Switches have no moving parts to wear out, they offer an infinite number of trouble-free operations. Series 6250 Solid State Proximity Switches operate on DC current only.
Offers high reliability provided by solid state inductive sensing technology and are suitable for plant environments where dirt and contamination create difficulties for electromechanical and other types of switches.
NFPA Brackets allow for the Series 1750 Reed and Hall Effect Switches to be mounted to 1-1/2" [38.1 mm] to 8" [203.2 mm] bore NFPA Cylinders.
Available for use on most PHD products for simple interfacing to many types of electrical controllers. These switches are offered in 10-30 VDC current sinking and current sourcing versions for simple interfacing to electronic systems. Since Solid State Switches have no moving parts to wear out, they offer an infinite number of trouble-free operations. Constant amplitude output allows use with most digital logic systems.
