Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi FSQA3/A01/2MT/HF Magnetic Proximity Sensor?
The Carlo Gavazzi FSQA3/A01/2MT/HF is a robust magnetic proximity sensor designed for reliable non-contact position and presence detection in industrial machinery, automation equipment and control systems. As part of the Carlo Gavazzi FSQ series, it combines an M12 × 1 stainless steel housing, normally open reed-switch output and shielded cable connection for dependable operation in demanding industrial environments.
This sensor operates through magnetic actuation, allowing its internal contact to switch without requiring direct mechanical contact with the moving component. The non-contact operating principle helps minimise mechanical wear and makes the FSQA3/A01/2MT/HF suitable for repeated position monitoring, end-of-travel detection and machine status applications.
With an operating distance of 7–23 mm, a normally open (NO) output and rugged stainless steel M12 × 1 housing, the FSQA3/A01/2MT/HF provides a compact solution for industrial magnetic sensing. Its IP67 protection rating, shielded cable and operating temperature range of -25 to +75 °C support reliable installation in industrial automation equipment.
