The 166x series provides three different cable outlets. In addition, the cable can also be hidden by being routed out from underneath the sensor. The coded magnetic system’s integration into a new housing opens additional installation options. The magnetic system consists of two components—the magnet housing and the magnet insert. The magnet insert is removable and can be reinserted with a 90-degree turn. That way, the magnet housing can be attached at a 90-degree angle from the sensor housing. The sensors are available in three versions with different types of contacts: with two normally open contacts, three normally open contacts and as a normally open/normally closed contact system.
