AVENTICS™ Sensor, Series SN6 8940410602

The AVENTICS™ Sensor, Series SN6 8940410602 is a magnetic proximity sensor for pneumatic cylinders, designed to detect the piston position via its integrated magnet and provide a reliable switching signal for automation and monitoring tasks in industrial and marine environments.

The AVENTICS™ Sensor, Series SN6 8940410602 is a compact magnetic reed sensor developed for use on pneumatic cylinders, providing non‑contact detection of the piston position. Installed externally on the cylinder, it senses the magnetic field of the piston magnet and switches when the piston reaches the defined position, enabling precise end‑position feedback and position monitoring.

Part of the AVENTICS SN6 series, this sensor is suitable for integration into control systems for machine automation, handling systems and marine equipment where robust, repeatable position sensing is required. Its rugged housing and industrial‑grade design make it appropriate for demanding applications, including shipboard machinery, where vibration, contamination and continuous operation are common. The 8940410602 variant is configured as a plug‑connected sensor, offering quick installation and easy replacement during maintenance.
