EGSL
If proximity sensors are used as hardware limit switches:
• Use proximity switches with normally-closed function.
The normally closed function protects the EGSL against overrunning the end
position if the proximity sensor cable is broken.
• Avoid external influence caused by strong magnetic fields or ferrite parts
in the vicinity of the proximity sensors. The minimum distance is summarised
in the table below:

If proximity sensors are used as reference switches:
• Use the proximity sensors corresponding to the input of the controller used
(è catalogue specifications, www.festo.com/catalogue).
To prevent soiling:
• Use the slot covers from our catalogue.
