44505-1541

Snap action, limit switches are switches that are commonly used in industrial and electrical settings. These switches are designed to sense a change in state and quickly respond, typically by opening or closing an electric circuit when the threshold is reached. The 44505-1541 is a type of limit switch manufactured by the mechanical and electrical company TE Connectivity. It is a 9.7 mm deep, IP67 rated miniature limit switch, designed for surface mounting.

Application Field

The 44505-1541 switch is used in a variety of industrial applications, including machine manufacturing, transportation, chemical processing, and food and beverage production. It is designed for use in harsh environments, providing reliable operation and high repeatability in temperatures ranging from -20℃ to +80℃. Additionally, its corrosion-resistant and dust-tight feature makes it suitable for use in industrial settings that require high levels of protection from particulate matter and corrosive chemicals. Moreover, it can be used with a variety of AC and DC voltage loads up to 250 VAC and 28 VDC.

Working Principle

The 44505-1541 switch utilizes a snap action mechanism, which is activated when the contact point reaches a predetermined set point. This contact point is typically a steel ball, plunger, or roller, depending on the type of switch. Upon contact, the ball or plunger “snap” forward, causing the contacts to open or close. This snap action quickly allows for definite switching action, providing high repeatability and fast response time. In addition, the 44505-1541 switch comes equipped with silver-plated contacts, and a pre-sealed contact area that ensures superior performance and reliability under any environmental conditions.

Conclusion

The 44505-1541 switch is a reliable device for industrial applications. Utilizing a snap action mechanism and a corrosion-resistant, dust-tight design, the switch is designed to provide many years of reliable operation and quick response time. Additionally, its pre-sealed contact area ensures superior performance and reliability in harsh environments, while its compatibility with a variety of AC and DC voltage loads makes it suitable for use in a wide range of applications.
