D-C73 Applications

The D-C73 is a band-mounted 2-wire reed auto switch that detects piston position on round-body pneumatic cylinders such as the CDJ2, CDM2 and CDG1 series. With a red LED indicator, 24 VDC/100 VAC compatibility and 5-40 mA load range, it drives relay and PLC inputs directly through a simple mechanical contact. The band bracket lets it fit tie-rod and tube-style cylinders that lack a switch groove, making it a versatile end-of-stroke sensor for general automation.
