AirTAC Magnetic Switch Guide for Cylinder RFQ
Compare AirTAC magnetic switch options, mounting style, output type, and cylinder compatibility before selecting a switch for PLC feedback, interlock, or motion confirmation.
What This Switch Category Helps You Solve
This page is for buyers who need to match switch body style, mounting method, and signal output to the correct cylinder configuration.
Cylinder Position Feedback
Use magnetic switches for PLC input, cycle confirmation, and motion control interlock.
Space-Sensitive Installs
Choose the right body shape when machine layout or groove structure is limited.
Bundled Sourcing
Magnetic switches are often quoted together with cylinders as part of one package.
Choose the right switch path before you confirm the series
Switch RFQs often depend on cylinder compatibility, so buyers should choose original-brand continuity, compatible supply, or comparison content first.
Original-Brand Path
Use this path when the buyer needs continuity with an existing brand-specific cylinder and switch setup.
HKQD Compatible Path
Use this path for practical sensing solutions and compatible supply matched to cylinder grooves and outputs.
Replacement Guide Path
Use guides to compare mounting, groove, and output logic before choosing a compatible switch route.
Compare the Main Switch Families
| Series | Mounting Style | Signal Type | Typical Use |
|---|---|---|---|
| CS1-U | Band or slot mount | Reed switch type | General cylinder sensing |
| CS1-J | Compact mount | Reed or compact output | Restricted installation space |
| CS1-M | Standard magnetic switch | Reed switch type | OEM automation equipment |
Where These Switches Are Commonly Used
PLC Signal Feedback
Monitor cylinder movement and pass discrete signals into control systems.
Machine Interlock
Use sensor feedback to confirm position before the next machine action starts.
Counting and Sequencing
Track stroke completion and movement confirmation in repeated automation cycles.
OEM Equipment Matching
Pair switches with the correct cylinder groove or mounting style in one order.
What Buyers Usually Confirm Before RFQ
- Confirm the cylinder groove, band, or mounting structure first
- Check output type, wiring direction, and cable requirement
- Review PLC input conditions and installation space
- Prepare cylinder series information, photos, and quantity before RFQ
