Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi FSA2S32MT Magnetic Sensor?

The Carlo Gavazzi FSA2S32MT, also designated FS A 2 S3 2MT, is a compact cylindrical magnetic proximity sensor from the FS Series, designed for reliable non-contact position and presence detection in industrial automation equipment. Its reed-contact sensing principle enables a suitable external magnet to operate the sensor without physical contact between the sensor and the moving component.

This model features a compact M10 × 1.25 threaded brass housing and a normally open (NO) contact. The FS Series construction allows straightforward mounting on machinery, doors, actuators and other moving assemblies where a simple magnetic switching signal is required.

The FSA2S32MT is supplied with an integral 2 m PVC cable and provides contact ratings up to 250 V AC, 3 A and 100 VA. Combined with IP67 protection and an operating temperature range of -25 to +75 °C, it provides a durable sensing solution for industrial position-monitoring applications.

Reliable Non-Contact Magnetic Proximity Detection

Magnetic proximity sensors provide position information without requiring direct mechanical contact with the moving component. When a suitable magnetic actuator approaches the FSA2S32MT, its magnetic field operates the internal normally open reed contact, providing a simple switching signal to the connected control system.

The M10 × 1.25 threaded cylindrical housing allows convenient mounting and positional adjustment, while the integral 2 m PVC cable provides a ready-to-wire connection. Actual operating distance depends on the magnetic actuator, orientation and installation conditions, and mounting directly on ferromagnetic material can reduce the available sensing distance.

Typical Applications

• Machine position and presence detection.
• Industrial automation equipment.
• Door and access-panel position monitoring.
• Linear actuator position sensing.
• Pneumatic and mechanical equipment.
• Conveyor and material-handling systems.
• End-position detection.
