The Festo SMAT-8M-U-E-0,3-M8D is a state-of-the-art pneumatic position transmitter designed to offer precise and continuous monitoring of cylinder piston positions within a range of up to 40 mm. This compact and robust sensor is particularly suitable for integration into size 8 slots, making it an ideal choice for compact cylinders and grippers used in a variety of industrial applications.
With its analogue output, the SMAT-8M-U-E-0,3-M8D provides an output signal that is directly proportional to the piston position, allowing for accurate and real-time tracking. The sensor's integrated out-of-range detection feature ensures that users are immediately alerted if the piston moves outside the monitored area, enhancing process reliability and efficiency.
The transmitter's flush mounting capability allows for a space-saving installation without the need for additional accessories, and its IP65 and IP68 protection classes ensure durability and resilience in harsh industrial environments. Whether used for process monitoring, quality control, or object detection, the Festo SMAT-8M-U-E-0,3-M8D is engineered to deliver reliable performance and contribute to the optimisation of automated processes.

Thumbs up to Rob for helping out with an urgent requirement we had on a Friday afternoon. The part we wanted was over in Europe and Rob went out of his way to get it ordered and on site here for the following Tuesday.City Bearings

Found the component i was looking for ad a great price. Great support from the staff as I was paying using a wire transfer. - Quick delivery and very good packaging.Adriano Tiberi
Found the part we needed at the best price. Spoke to Rob to make sure the part was actually in stock, as many companies don't actually have the part available to ship. It was in stock ready and the part was checked and shipped and received within a couple of days from their German stock. Would definitely use again and recommend.Chris Sentance
