44505-1042

Snap Action, Limit Switches

The 44505-1042 snap action, limit switch is a versatile device used in a wide range of industrial and consumer applications. It is an electromechanical switch that is triggered by physical contact or a predetermined force, and then remains in its new position until it is reset or released. The 44505-1042 limit switch is an SPDT (Single Pole Double Throw) switch, which allows the device to control one load circuit with two terminals when it is depressed.

The 44505-1042 snap action, limit switch consists of several key components, including a mechanical actuator, a contact block, and a housing. The mechanical actuator is the moving part of the switch, and it is usually comprised of a plunger, lever, or roller. When the actuator is operated, it moves the contacts from their "off" position to their "on" position, and the switch will remain in the new position unless it is reset or released.

The contacts of the 44505-1042 limit switch typically consist of two parts: a stationary contact and a movable contact. The stationary contact is connected to the electrical circuit, while the movable contact is connected to the actuator. When the actuator is operated, it moves the movable contact over the stationary contact, creating an electrical circuit and completing the switch circuit.

The housing of the 44505-1042 snap action, limit switch is the protective enclosure which contains the mechanical actuator and the contacts. The housing helps to protect the switch from damage and extends its lifespan. It also prevents unauthorized access to the switch and its components.

The 44505-1042 limit switch is commonly used in industrial and consumer applications where a reliable and repeatable switch operation is necessary. Examples include elevators, conveyor systems, automated machinery, door and window openers, alarm systems, and other similar applications. The 44505-1042 is an ideal solution for applications where a dependable and continuous performance is required.

The 44505-1042 snap action, limit switch is an efficient and reliable switch solution for a wide range of applications. Its versatile design, robust construction, and reliable operation make it a popular choice in both industrial and consumer applications. The 44505-1042 switch is a dependable and cost-effective switch solution, and it’s sure to provide reliable performance in any application.
