Function

Insertion force F2 acting on the limit plunger moves the piston rod of the hydraulic
shock absorber through the cushioning length s to the end position.
When the piston rod is retracted, the hydraulic fluid in the shock absorber flows
through a path-dependent flow control valve and cushions the motion.
If the insertion force is less than the reset force F1 of the internal compression
spring, the stop plunger returns to the initial position.
Tab. 1: Function
The ring magnet is located on the stop plunger. The magnet enables end-position
sensing by an optional proximity switch.
