S-63-38 Tubular Solenoid Features and Applications

Key Features

Compact 0.375 in (9.7 mm) diameter body; 0.66 in (16.8 mm) length; low 0.23 oz (6.5 g) total weight; four duty-cycle ratings; and multiple coil windings for a broad range of DC operating voltages.

Typical Applications

The S-63-38 may be considered for compact latches, release mechanisms, laboratory equipment, small dispensing systems, office equipment and other short-stroke pull-actuation assemblies. Verify force, stroke, duty cycle, heat sinking and environmental requirements for the final design.

For mechanical details and performance information, see additional S-63-38 data, download the PDF datasheet, or use the 3D STEP model. For application assistance, contact Magnetic Sensor Systems.
