MZ18B Schneider 18A Miniature Circuit Breaker

Description MZ18B Schneider 18A Miniature Circuit Breaker Product Dimensions： Product Description (Detailed Explanation) The MZ18B is a non-contact magnetic sensor that translates the magnetic poles of a scale (the MB100 tape) into digital square-wave signals. As the sensor moves along the tape, it detects the magnetic flux changes and generates incremental signals (A, B, and Index/Reference) that are used by controllers to calculate position, distance, or speed. The hallmark of the MZ18B is its cylindrical M18 threaded design. Unlike rectangular sensors, the M18 housing allows for easy mounting through standard holes or brackets, similar to a standard proximity switch. Because it utilizes magnetic sensing, it is unaffected by dust, sawdust, oil, or humidity, making it a superior alternative to optical encoders in harsh environments. Product Parameters (Technical Specifications) Parameter Category Specification Sensing Principle Incremental Magnetic Required Magnetic Tape MB100 (1mm pole pitch) Housing Design M18 x 1 Threaded Cylinder Output Signals A, B, I (Optionally with inverted signals /A, /B, /I) Resolution Up to 10 µm (0.01 mm) Scanning Speed Max. 25 m/s Gap (Sensor to Tape) 0.1 mm to 0.4 mm (Small gap required for 1mm pitch) Supply Voltage 24V DC or 5V DC (Line Driver / Push-Pull) Protection Degree IP67 (Oil and Water resistant) Housing Material Nickel-plated brass or Stainless steel Product Advantages (Key Benefits) Robust and Reliable: Since there is no physical contact between the sensor and the tape, there is zero mechanical wear, ensuring a long service life. Resistant to Contamination: Ideal for environments where wood chips, metal shavings, or coolant spray would blind an optical sensor. Easy Mechanical Integration: The M18 threaded body allows for fine-tuning the sensing gap simply by rotating the sensor in its mounting bracket. High-Speed Tracking: With a maximum travel speed of 25 m/s, it can keep up with the fastest linear motor applications. Large Measuring Length: Combined with the MB100 tape, it can measure distances of up to 100 meters without loss of precision. Precautions (Important Notes) Tight Gap Clearance: Because the MZ18B uses a 1mm pole pitch (MB100), the sensing distance is very small (max 0.4 mm). Precise mechanical alignment is critical to prevent signal drops. Magnetic Interference: Do not install the sensor or tape near strong magnetic fields (e.g., unshielded motors or magnetic brake systems) as this can permanently damage the magnetic scale. Alignment (Arrows): The sensor must be installed following the orientation arrows printed on the housing. Incorrect orientation will result in reversed direction sensing or signal failure. Cable Shielding: Always use shielded cables and ensure the shield is connected to the ground at the controller side to avoid electrical noise interference. Product Applications (Typical Use Cases) Woodworking Machines: Measuring the position of fences, saw heads, or thickness adjustments where fine dust is prevalent. Glass and Stone Cutting: Linear feedback for water-jet or bridge saws where water spray and grit are constant. Packaging Machinery: Synchronizing conveyor belts or tracking the movement of labeling arms. Metalworking (CNC): Providing position feedback for auxiliary axes on lathes or milling machines. Handling Systems: Linear position tracking for pneumatic or electric actuators in assembly lines.
