The Canfield Connector 7GL is an expansion of the popular Series 7000 “floating” clamp design, which adapts to NFPA tie rod linear actuators with 2 to 8 inch bore. This rugged magnetic proximity sensor can sense actuator position in stringent, general location applications. The switch features a robust, aircraft aluminum body, epoxy-filled, vibration and shock resistant, electronic circuit. Available in a normally open contact, the 7GL can switch current up to .5 Amps and has a voltage range of 0-120VAC/VDC 50/60 Hz.
