The plug in PWS sensors provide feedback information on pneumatic cylinder status in either pneumatic or electrical outputs. Mounted onto the cylinder port, these devices monitor the back pressure of the cylinder’s exhaust. When the cylinder’s piston stops, the back pressure rapidly drops and the PWS sensor provides the desired output. These devices provide a signal whenever the cylinder stops motion. Ideal for variable stroke applications such as robotics where sensor type devices such as limit switches are impractical.

The PWS sensor should be used in conjunction with the PWS Banjo that fits into the cylinder port. The sensor is then easily plugged into the banjo fitting and locked into place with a spring clip. The banjo fitting is designed to accept (piggy backed) other functional fittings such as flow controls or blocking valves.
