EGSL
If proximity sensors are used as hardware limit switches:
Use proximity switches with normally-closed function.
The normally closed function protects the EGSL against overrunning the end
position if the proximity sensor cable is broken.
Avoid external influence caused by strong magnetic fields or ferrite parts
in the vicinity of the proximity sensors. The minimum distance is summarised
in the table below:

If proximity sensors are used as reference switches:
Use the proximity sensors corresponding to the input of the controller used
(è catalogue specifications, www.festo.com/catalogue).
To prevent soiling:
Use the slot covers from our catalogue.
