Sensor solutions for hydraulic cylinders

Header Graphic Illustration Construction Machinery at Work

Developed to meet the requirements of mobile hydraulics, SGH sensors provide maximum robustness and durability. Fully integrated into a hydraulic cylinder, the sensors are optimally protected. The unique functional principle achieves an unprecedented degree of compactness. Use in safety-critical applications is no problem either with the safety variants with redundant outputs or CANopen safety interface.
