Snap Action, Limit Switches are commonly used in control systems, temperature monitoring, and to perform other frequent operations. These switches are triggered by an external force, like a small spring, which presses onto an electrical contact, an actuator and a full bobdet that opens or closes the switch. The 38HM45 is an example of a snap action, limit switch.

Application Fields

The 38HM45 snap action limit switch has a wide range of applications. It is used in many industrial and commercial applications, such as in machine tool, packaging machines, security systems, pumps and controls, door operators, appliance and motor control, electromechanical couplings, and many other industries. Its ability to provide low-power actuation, smooth and reliable operation, and tight thermal and environmental ratings guarantee the durability and precision of the 38HM45 in many applications.

In addition to its industrial applications, the 38HM45 is also used in consumer applications. For instance, it can be used in doors, windows, and other spaces to detect the opening, closing, locking and movement of the openings. It can also be used to detect the movements and activities of people, animals, vehicles, and other objects.

Working Principle

The 38HM45 takes advantage of the inherent mechanical properties of a snap action switch to actuate and keep the switch in either the open or closed position. The inner mechanism of the switch consists of two separate components.

The first component is the drive mechanism and this comprises a plunger or actuator attached to a small coil spring. The coil spring is attached to a lever arm, which slides back and forth within the switch case. The second component is the limit switch, which is connected to a contact element. The contact element is made from a non-magnetic material, usually plastic, and is mounted in the switch case.

The two components are connected using a link or a pair of rotating pins. When the drive mechanism is activated, the plunger is forced downwards while the lever arm is forced up. This causes the contact element to move away from the limit switch, thus opening the switch. When the force that is depressing the plunger is released, the spring pushes the plunger back up and the lever arm is pulled down. This causes the contact element to come into contact with the limit switch, thus closing the switch. This is the principle used by the 38HM45 snap action limit switch.

Conclusion

The 38HM45 snap action limit switch is an amazing piece of technology that has a wide range of applications. It has a wide range of industries which can use it, including machine tool, packaging machines, security systems, pumps and controls, door operators, appliance and motor control, electromechanical couplings, and many other industries. It is also used in consumer applications for detecting openings, closing, locking and movement of objects. Its working principle involves a small coil spring actuating an actuator and a contact element, which either closes or opens the switch depending on the position of the contact element.
