Product Overview

The Gefran PY-2-F-010-S01M 0000X000X00 is a compact PY2 spring-return position transducer configured with a 10 mm stroke and a factory-connected 1 m screened cable. The verified Gefran ordering number is F004215.

This cable-equipped configuration is particularly relevant where a detachable DIN connector would be too large, exposed to contamination or inconveniently positioned. The ball-tipped probe follows short linear movement and returns automatically as the measured surface retracts.

Meaning of the Configuration Code

• PY-2 identifies the spring-return PY2 family with ball-tip contact.
• F identifies the screened-cable electrical version.
• 010 specifies the 10 mm useful electrical stroke.
• S01M identifies the 1 m cable-length configuration.
• F004215 is the verified Gefran ordering reference.

Technical Specifications

Cable Routing and Installation

Route the screened cable away from power conductors, switching devices and sharp moving edges. The cable should be secured without tension near the sensor body and must not be used as a mechanical support. Shield termination should follow the machine grounding design to minimize electrical noise and avoid an unintended ground loop.

Align the probe with the target movement. Establish only the preload needed to maintain contact and protect the 10 mm mechanism against overtravel. The control rod must return smoothly without sticking.

Important Differences from Connector and Cable Variants

PY-2-C-010 0000X000X00 F004190 uses a 5-pole DIN 43322 connector rather than a fixed cable. PY-2-F-010-S02M F004221 has a 2 m cable, while PY-2-F-010-S10M F004214 has a 10 m cable. Cable length affects installation and ordering identity even when the stroke is unchanged.

Listings containing additional suffixes such as XL0202 or XL0323 are not the same complete configuration as F004215 and should not be consolidated into this product page.

Maintenance and Replacement Notes

Confirm the cable sheath is undamaged and inspect the ball tip for flat spots or contamination. Before replacement, record conductor functions and check the controller input scaling. Do not identify this unit from “PY-2-F-010" alone; verify S01M, 0000X000X00 and F004215.

Related models are provided for family reference only and are not automatically interchangeable.

Inquiry and Supply Notes

Provide the full nameplate and photographs showing the cable entry and probe tip. Suggested internal-link anchor text is “Gefran PY2 10 mm Screened-Cable Position Transducer." Availability and condition must be confirmed in the quotation.
