83240220

Snap Action, Limit Switches

The 83240220 is a type of snap action, limit switch. It is used to provide mechanical control of circuits, machines, and actuators. The switch responds to electrical inputs as it is built with a contact-closure mechanism which is activated by an external force or pressure. The switch is capable of being used as a momentary-contact or normally open/normally closed switch, depending on the application.

The 83240220 snap action, limit switch is designed specifically for control, protection and monitoring purposes. It is available in a wide range of contact arrangements and materials. The switch is constructed using an epoxy-coated metals, stainless steel, and other materials, and is designed for both indoor and outdoor use. Additionally, the switch features a small mounting footprint, a durable construction, and extended life ratings.

The 83240220 snap action, limit switch has numerous working principles, which depend on the environment/application it is used in. It typically functions as a switch where it is either activated or deactivated. When activated, it causes a change in an electric current, and is often used at the boundary between two points in order to prevent an overload or short circuit. This type of switch is often used to detect the presence of objects or people. Additionally, it can be used to detect the end of a cycle or the completion of a task.

The switch can also be used in an acceleration or deceleration application. This type of application typically requires a limit switch that is capable of handling changes in speed, as well as changes in direction. The switch is able to accomplish both as it is built with a mechanical contact-closure mechanism, allowing for a quick and reliable response to any sudden accelerations or decelerations. The switch is also able to handle extreme temperatures, which are common in this type of environment. It is capable of withstanding temperatures from -40°C to +125°C.

In addition to acceleration and deceleration applications, the 83240220 snap action, limit switch can be used for safety applications. This type of application requires the switch to be able to detect an over-travel or a misalignment between two moving parts. The switch is built with a contact-closure mechanism which is activated by the misalignment or over-travel, and is capable of shutdown circuits. It is also capable of monitoring remotely located objects or personnel, and can be used to detect any unauthorized access.

The 83240220 snap action, limit switch is also capable of detecting a wide range of positions or motions. This includes simple on/off movements as well as more complex rotational movements. The switch is able to detect these positions and motions as it is built with a contact-closure mechanism, allowing for quick and reliable detection and response. The switch is also capable of being used in a surge protection application, where it is used to detect and prevent a surge from occurring.
