Snap Action, Limit Switches

83101701 is a series of snap action and limit switches manufactured by Honeywell International Inc. Its main application consists of positioning, timing, toggle, and pressure based switches. 83101701 limit switches are often used when rugged, reliable, and sealed switching is needed.

Application Field

83101701 limit switches are suitable for a variety of applications. They are widely used in the fields of industrial automation and control, such as truck lifts, conveyors, machine tools, agricultural equipment, printing presses and medical equipment. They are also used in HVAC applications, where they can be used to sense pilot flame or monitor system pressure or temperature. 83101701 limit switches can also be used to detect the opening and closing of windows, doors, or other security devices.

Working Principle

83101701 limit switches work by sensing a physical position or presence and triggering an electrical signal. The signal can then be used to control an automated system, such as a motor or an actuator. The switch includes a plunger or lever, an actuator, and a contact system. When the plunger or lever is actuated, the actuator causes the contact system to make a connection. The connection triggers the electrical signal, which can then be used to control actuators or initiate an automated process.

83101701 limit switches feature a variety of configurations and materials. The plunger and actuator are typically made of brass, stainless steel, or aluminum. The contact system can be normally-closed, normally-open, or have a combination of normally-closed and normally-open contacts. The contact system can also be adjustable. 83101701 limit switches offer an IP65 protection rating and can withstand temperatures ranging from -20°C to 125°C.

Conclusion

The 83101701 series of snap action and limit switches provide reliable, cost-effective switching for a variety of applications. They are suitable for position sensing, timing, toggle, and pressure based switches and feature adjustable and customizable contact systems, a variety of materials, and protective coatings. 83101701 limit switches offer a reliable, rugged solution for a wide range of industrial automation and control applications.
