Bimba MRS-.087-PBL-04 Proximity Sensor Magnetic Reed Switch

The BIMBA MRS-.087-PBL-04 is a 3/4" bore magnetic reed switch designed to act as a proximity sensor for piston position in Original Line pneumatic cylinders. This 2-wire, normally open SPST Form A reed switch is actuated by a magnet on the piston and accepts 3–120 V AC or DC while drawing up to 20 mA, delivering approximately 2.5 W of load capability at the operating voltage. It features 24" pig-tail leads for easy integration with standard control circuits and interconnects with PLC inputs, relays, or safety interlocks. With an actuation time of about 1.0 ms, it provides rapid feedback suitable for high-speed automation. Compatible with Bimba Original Line cylinders, the MRS-.087-PBL-04 is commonly used for end-of-stroke sensing, position indication, and simple interlock applications in pneumatic systems. The model designation MRS-.087-PBL-04 identifies the magnetic reed switch variant within the MRS family and its extended pig-tail lead configuration, making it a straightforward replacement or upgrade for existing Original Line setups.
