MSP-ROD / CONFIGURATION REVIEW
Rod-style hydraulic position sensors
Plan an in-cylinder installation around the pressure boundary, mounting thread, piston magnet and three-part measuring envelope.
DEFINE THE REQUIRED OPERATING WINDOW
Confirm the assembly before the part number.
Installation
In-cylinder rod
Stroke request
50–5,000 mm requested range
Inquiry scope; final range is model dependent.Output request
4–20 mA / voltage / SSI / fieldbus, by configuration
Availability confirmed during configuration review.- Specify continuous pressure, pressure peaks and cycle count separately. A pressure rating belongs to a tested assembly, including its seal and mounting interface.
- Check M18×1.5 or 3/4"-16 UNF against the actual port drawing. Thread diameter alone does not confirm sealing geometry.
- Send the piston bore, rod support arrangement, magnet clearance and temperature range before approving a long-stroke installation.
| Interface | Drawing / parameter to confirm | Electrical review |
|---|---|---|
| M18×1.5 metric | Seal face; head null + active stroke + tip dead zone | Supply, connector pin assignment and output scaling |
| 3/4"-16 UNF imperial | Port and seal geometry; check 63.5 mm dead-zone requirement against the original drawing | SSI code / bits / clock or network commissioning |
| Profile brackets / clevis | Mounting centers, clearances and magnet alignment | Cable routing, shield and moving-axis strain relief |
A replacement review in three steps.
- Provide the complete original part number and installation dimensions.
- Confirm thread / mount, active stroke, blind zones and exact output definition.
- Approve the proposed drawing, pinout and sample acceptance criteria before installation.
Third-party product names identify comparison requests. MagStrictive is an independent brand; interchangeability requires case-by-case review.
