About this product
2.1 Product description
BMF 235K-H-yy-C-A2-xxxxxx
The BMF 235K-H-yy-C-A2-xxxxxx is a magnetic field sensor. Two different switching positions in a range of about
60 mm can be programmed manually. When the respective switching position is reached, the corresponding output
is switched on and the position indicated visually with the LEDs. The type of the sensor (PNP/NPN; N.O./N.C.) is set
at the factory and cannot be reprogrammed later by the customer.
BMF 235K-H-PI-C-A8-xxxxxx
The BMF 235K-H-PI-C-A8-xxxxxx is a magnetic field sensor. Up to eight different switching positions in a range of
about 60 mm can be programmed with IO-Link Master. When the respective switching position is reached, the
corresponding position is reported to the master via IO-Link protocol.
In SIO mode, when the respective switching position is reached, the corresponding output is switched and the
position indicated visually with the LEDs.
The sensor is intended for use in pneumatic cylinders and grippers with C-slots. The polarization of the installed
position magnets on the moving piston part is irrelevant.
