831607C3.L Application Field and Working Principle

Snap action, limit switches are versatile, reliable and cost effective electromechanical devices. Commonly used to detect physical measurement, they can be found in nearly all industries, including automotive, aerospace, building, industrial, hydraulic and military. Their primary function is to detect an event or physical change and open, close, or adjust a circuit thereby initiating a control action.

The 831607C3.L is a snap action, limit switch with a single pole double throw (SPDT) Contacts configuration. This switch offers both manual and latching actuation with a variety of snappy metal (SPDT) contacts for high reliability in mechanically and electrically demanding applications. The primary benefit of the 831607C3.L is that it can act as both a limit switch and a manual switch. This feature allows it to be used in both safety interlocking and manual control applications.

Working Principle

At its core, a snap-action limit switch is a mechanical switch that is actuated mechanically. It consists of two primary parts – a main spring and a movable plate. The plate has an armature that moves as a result of an external force or vibration. When the armature is displaced, it trips the main spring and causes the contact points of the switch to close or open. As the plate is actuated, it completes or interrupts the electrical circuit.

Snap action limit switches are especially useful in applications that require switching a circuit in response to a momentary mechanical change. For example, in a hydraulic system, the switch may be used to detect hydraulic pressure when a preset pressure is exceeded, or in an industrial setting, switches may be used to detect the movement of an object such as a conveyor belt and initiate an operation.

In addition to its versatility, the 831607C3.L offers a number of other advantages as well. It is designed for durability and has a high-impact cover to protect it from physical damage. It is also rated for extreme temperatures, and is UL listed for safety. Additionally, the adjustable setpoints are easily changed, allowing it to be used in a wide range of applications.
