Indexing plungers are used where it is necessary to prevent changes of position due to lateral forces.
Some examples of this are for length, height and position locking in machines, equipment, furniture and special vehicle construction.
For indexing plungers with status sensor, the actuation status can be detected and processed electronically.
The actuation status is transferred wirelessly by Bluetooth to a mobile terminal or the K1494 gateway.
The combination of indexing plunger with status sensor and gateway allows the signal to be processed in a machine control system, for example.
Power to the indexing plunger is supplied from an integrated button cell which can be replaced when necessary.Material:Steel version:
