11SM1077-H58

Snap Action, Limit Switches are widely used in connection with industrial machinery, elevators, door openers, and other applications where an open or closed circuit is required. The 11SM1077-H58 is an example of a snap action limit switch. This particular type of limit switch is a two pole, momentary single throw switch.

Application Fields and Working Principle

The 11SM1077-H58 is primarily used to control the motion of doors and other equipment. It has two poles, and each pole is individually activated by a movable contact. When the contact is at rest, an open circuit is indicated. When the contact is pushed, or tripped, the circuit is closed and the equipment is permitted to pass, or is restrained from passing. The 11SM1077-H58 is an example of a safety switch, because it provides a physical barrier for machinery, limiting access to potentially hazardous areas.

The limit switch\'s snap action mechanism provides quick, accurate and repeatable switching, which is why the 11SM1077-H58 is ideal for applications that require a controlled shutdown or enhanced security. The mechanism consists of an actuator, or contact, and a housing that contains a pair of contacts. When the contact is pushed, the switch is tripped and the equipment is allowed to pass. Upon release of the contact, the switch returns to its original position and the contact is reset, ensuring a reliable operating cycle.

The 11SM1077-H58 is a single pole, momentary switch and is commonly used in conjunction with mechanical door openers. It can be used in applications such as door access control systems, limit switches, medical equipment, HVAC systems, and elevator systems. Its snap action mechanism can also be used to control motors and valves.

To ensure that the 11SM1077-H58 operates as intended, it must be mounted in a secure position with no outside interference to the contact. It is important to ensure that the switch is properly wired and that it can withstand the current, voltage and temperatures of the environment. It must also be compatible with the equipment it is used in order to ensure accurate operation.

The 11SM1077-H58 is a reliable, cost effective and accurate switch that is used in a variety of applications. It is designed for long life and reliability and its snap action mechanism allows for quick and accurate switching, making it an ideal choice for safety and security applications.
