83884102 Application Field and Working Principle

Snap action, limit switches are extensively used in the automation industry – in various control, instrumentation and automation applications. The base idea behind the use of these switches is to detect mechanical movements (of an actuator or any other equipment) and then provide feedback in the form of a logic state or an equivalent electrical signal.

What is a Snap Action, Limit Switch?

A snap action, limit switch is a mechanical device that can detect and monitor the position of a moving part or object. This switch comprises of an actuator – a spring-assisted plunger that is connected with the switch – and a switching element, often a set of contacts. When the actuator is moved, either by being depressed or pushed, the switch contacts makes or breaks the circuit – resulting in a triggering of the switch.

The Main Application Fields and Working Principle of 83884102

The 83884102 snap action, limit switch is one of the most reliable and widely accepted switches among many other models. This specific switch is usually used to detect the presence of a storable material in an area. As the material is pushed into the area, a sensing manual arm triggers the switch and a corresponding device can then be activated. The principle of operation here is rather simple – the pressure within the area is transferred to the plunger, which then actuates the switch contacts, thereby providing a trigger signal.

Another typical application field of 83884102 is the sensing of motor’s drive shafts and camshafts, in order to detect certain position of the shafts. In this set up, the spring-assisted plunger can sense and monitor the position of the shafts, providing the required feedback and trigger signals.

The 83884102 is also highly suited for detecting the position of an instrument’s guide pin or saddle, in order to determine a certain mechanical adjustment. This setup requires little space, and can also be used by several industries, from automotive to textiles. Last but not least, this snap action, limit switch can be effectively used to send, detect or acknowledge the presence of a mechanical obstruction or interference.

Advantages

The 83884102 has some intrinsic advantages. It is a highly reliable and dependable switch that is designed to withstand extreme temperatures and vibrations. Its convenient locking system provides a high degree of security, while its ergonomic design allows for easy mounting, even in small locations. Plus, its low current consumption ensures minimum energy consumption and longer operational life.

The 83884102 is also very economical and affordable, making it a preferred choice for many industries. Plus, its strong construction and self-cleaning feature allows for improved system performance and better maintenance.

Conclusion

The 83884102 snap action, limit switches offer a wide range of advantages, making them suitable for a variety of applications. These switches are especially suited for detecting the presence of a storable material, the position of a drive shaft or camshaft, and the position of instrument’s guide pin or saddle. Their solid construction, ease of use and low cost makes them the preferred choice for various industries.
