831607C2.E

831607C2 Snap Action, Limit Switches are designed for a wide variety of applications and offer a working principle that is designed for use in many handling and controlling processes. The snap action contact action, combined with reliable and without fail performance, makes these switches ideal for heavy-duty industrial applications. This type of limit switch is usually used to detect the presence or absence of a physical object, such as a door or gate, and allow a relay to control the device with a single switch.

The durability and long life of the 831607C2 make it perfect for environments where there can be continuous fluctuations in supply voltage, extended holding times and frequent use. The durable construction and quickly resetting mechanism provide an easy to use, trouble free switch for controlling industrial equipment.

The variety of enclosure shapes and contacts available make it possible to meet almost any application requirement. The many options of design such as a water-proof construction and oil-resistant insulation ensure a secure installation in an industrial setting. The thin profile design allows for easy installation and a compact design.

The mechanical operation of the switch is based on an internal linear contact system, which is triggered by a set of metal balls that are actuated by a plunger. When the plunger is is pushed, one of the balls is displaced and snaps the contact closed, securing the circuit. To reset the switch, a reset button is pushed and the metal balls snap back into place, keeping the switch open.

The snap-action element helps reduce contact bounce, resulting in longer life and reliable performance. The use of anti-backlash mechanisms and special surface materials help reduce contact noise and provide a longer switch service life. The plunger is rated according to the expected number of operations, with mechanical and electrical life spans of up to 1 million operations in a single installation. Contact assemblies are available in many forms such as mini and full size contact blocks, ultraprecision contact blocks and full miniaturized contact assemblies.

The 831607C2 is designed for use in a wide variety of applications such as machinery and equipment, flow and pressure, lighting and security systems and many more. With its durable and reliable construction and many customization options, the 831607C2 is perfect for a variety of industrial needs, making it a great choice for use in all types of factory and manufacturing applications.
