5.2 Determining the piston position with a rod
magnet
A small axially polarized bar magnet can be used to
determine the travel path of the cylinder magnet and
therefore the ideal sensor position.
Determining the installation position
1. Apply the rod magnet to the side wall or the groove of
the cylinder so that the magnet is attracted.

2. Extend the cylinder rod completely.
⇒ The magnet will move with it.
