SMT-10M-PS-24V-E-0,3-L-M8D

Product information

Product Overview

The SMT-10M is Festo’s magneto-resistive cylinder sensor for the round slot (C-slot) on cylinders such as the DSNU and other round-profile barrels. It is inserted from above and sits flush with the cylinder, and Festo lists a wide cable-length range for the family.

This page covers SMT-10M-PS-24V-E-0,3-L-M8D — Festo type code SMT-10M-PS-24V-E-0,3-L-M8D, order number 551375. Everything below is taken from Festo’s own product data for this order number: the technical values, the category path, the GTIN and the lifecycle notice are all reproduced from the manufacturer’s page rather than paraphrased, so you can check them against Festo’s documentation before you buy.

Why Buyers Specify This Model

• Magneto-resistive measuring principle for electronic, contact-free end-position sensing
• Designed for the round slot (C-slot) rather than the T-slot, so it fits round-profile cylinders
• Inserted into the slot from above, flush with the cylinder profile
• For universal use, individually configurable or pre-assembled
• LED switching status and operating reserve indication
• Inserted in the slot from above, flush with the cylinder profile
• LED switching status indication

Technical Specifications (Official Festo Data)

Festo publishes the parameter set for this product in the series catalogue rather than as a per-article key/value block, so we do not reproduce a shortened table here. The ordering data below and the catalogue link give you Festo’s own figures. Send us the values you need and we will pull them from the manufacturer’s catalogue for your variant.

The order number and the type code both have to match. A single character in the type code can change the valve function, the cushioning or the connection, and it always changes the order number.

Lifecycle and Availability

Festo’s product page for this order number does not currently carry a discontinuation or successor notice, so we list it as a standard catalogue item. Availability is always confirmed against Festo’s stock at the time you order — we do not keep a stock figure on this page because it would be out of date the day it was written.

Official Documentation

Every figure on this page comes from Festo. Use the manufacturer’s own documents to verify it:

• Festo official product page — SMT-10M-PS-24V-E-0,3-L-M8D — the source of the technical values and the lifecycle notice above.
• Festo official series catalogue (PDF) — Festo’s own catalogue for this series, including the type code breakdown and the ordering data for every variant.

Ordering This Part

Before we quote, please confirm:

• the complete Festo type code, exactly as it appears on the drawing or the nameplate — not just the series name;
• the order number if you have it, so we can cross-check the code against Festo’s catalogue;
• the quantity and the delivery address;
• for cylinders, the stroke and the mounting style, because both are fields in the order code;
• for valves and sensors, the electrical connection and the voltage, because these are fields in the order code.

Send us a photograph of the nameplate if the code is hard to read — that is usually the fastest way to avoid shipping the wrong variant.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the -L- in SMT-10M-PS-24V-E-0,3-L-M8D mean?
The letter in that position describes the electrical connection style in Festo’s code — in this family L denotes a plug connection. Since the connection style changes the part number and the mating cable, quote the complete string.

Which cylinders use the SMT-10M rather than the SMT-8M-A?
The slot form decides it. SMT-10M fits the round slot (C-slot) used on round-profile cylinders; SMT-8M-A fits the T-slot used on profile cylinders. Tell us the cylinder and we will confirm the slot.

Can the sensor be used on a DSNU round cylinder?
Round cylinders use the C-slot form, which is what this sensor is made for. Confirm the cylinder code with us and we will match the sensor and the cable.

Do you supply the sensor with the cable?
This variant comes on a 0.3 m cable with an M8 plug, so it needs the matching connecting cable. We quote those together.
