Product Description

The SMC D-J79C is a perpendicular solid state auto switch, a type of pneumatic position sensor. It operates on 24 V DC with a current range of 5 to 40 mA. This solid state switch is designed for perpendicular mounting on a 2-wire rail.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the SMC D-J79C perpendicular solid state auto switch used for?

The SMC D-J79C is a pneumatic position sensor used to detect cylinder piston position in industrial automation. It mounts perpendicularly on a 2-wire rail and provides a solid state output for PLC or controller input, common in packaging, material handling, and assembly lines.

What are the specifications of the SMC D-J79C solid state switch?

The SMC D-J79C is a perpendicular solid state auto switch with IP67 rating, operating at 24 V DC and a current range of 5 to 40 mA. It is designed for 2-wire rail mounting and is part of SMC's D-J series pneumatic position sensors.

Where to buy the SMC D-J79C worldwide?
