105ML1

Snap Action, Limit Switches

105ML1 is a snap action, limit switch with a wide range of applications and is used by many industries. It is ideal for applications such as automotive, water, and fuel systems, along with applications in food processing and aerospace. This switch offers short and long lever actuations in both plastic and metal materials.

The 105ML1 is designed to provide reliable service in many situations. It has a wide variety of mounting configurations as well as optional silver contacts for increased reliability. This switch is also UL and CSA approved, making it suitable for use in a wide range of environments.

Working Principle

The 105ML1 has a unique working principle that differs from other snap action, limit switches. Instead of a single-arm switch, the 105ML1 uses a two-armed mechanism. The two arms are connected by a central spring, which provides the actuation force. The lever is then triggered by a direct action on one of the arms, causing the lever to "snap" into place and close the switch.

When the switch is triggered, the lever remains in that position until the external force is removed. This makes the 105ML1 switch well-suited for applications such as water systems, where a consistent and dependable switch position is required. When not in use, the lever will reset itself to its original position, ready for use again.

Applications

The 105ML1 switch is used in a wide range of applications due to its ability to provide reliable switching. It can be used in automotive, water, and fuel systems to control flow of these various systems. The 105ML1 is also used in food processing and industrial machinery as an alternative to a conventional limit switch.

For applications in hazardous environments such as chemical and petrochemical plants, the 105ML1 can provide reliable switching with its UL and CSA approval. Its wide range of mounting options and optional silver contacts offer further benefits for electrical designers in these applications.

The 105ML1 is a reliable and robust snap action, limit switch suitable for use in a wide range of applications. With its two-arm mechanism and UL approval, it can provide consistent switching and reliable service in many environments.
