keep them back away from most of the enemy's guns. with a 48" range, you have a much longer reach...

sentinels are ace for things like hiding in your deployment zone so as to always contest it, or else as cheap platforms for that improved coms upgrade!
just don't try and use it as you would say, a space marine dreadnought! it's not ment to take alot of enemy punishment, but it's still dead usefull. for example, by giving it the armoured crew compartment upgrade, you can keep a unit of assault marines tied-up for quite a while as they'll need 6's to glance you! (using melta bombs is risky for them as they'll cause a tonne of penetrating hits meaning there's a high chance they'll blow themselves up along with your sentinel!)

cheers!
