Snap Action, Limit Switches

The 914CE16-AQ snap action switch is a limit switch of the snap action type which is used for sensing end positions of actuators (i.e. cylinders, motors, etc.) or objects in automated systems. It consists of a rugged die cast housing, internal spring he ferrules, and integrated ON/OFF position electro-mechanical contacts. The switch is actuated by means of a plunger, lever or roller actuator, mounted directly onto the switch housing. The switch is designed to operate at steep angles and it is resistant to humidity, water, dust, oil and other harsh environments.

Application Field

The 914CE16-AQ snap action switch is ideal for use in automated electronic and mechanical systems where it is important to detect the end positions of actuators or objects. The switch is commonly found in valve, compressor and pump control systems, linear actuator control systems, industrial switchgears, robotics, motor control systems, door and window control systems, elevator control systems, and safety systems among others.

Working Principle

The 914CE16-AQ snap action switch works by detecting the end positions of actuators or objects. It is actuated by means of a plunger, lever or roller actuator, that is mounted directly onto the switch housing. When the actuator reaches an end position, the internal spring-loaded ferrules push the contacts into either the ON or OFF position. This action is often referred to as "snap action" because it is much faster than a mechanical switch. In addition, the switch is designed with a reset button that allows it to reset itself when it is in the OFF position.

The 914CE16-AQ snap action switch’s contact resistance is typically less than 100Ω and it is designed to be rated for up to 10A of current at 250V AC. It operates in temperatures between -40° and 85°C. The switch is also IP67 rated, making it dust and water tight and suitable for use in harsh environments.

Conclusion

The 914CE16-AQ snap action switch is an ideal solution for detecting the end positions of actuators or objects in automated electronic and mechanical systems. It is robust and resistant to harsh environments and it operates reliably even in tough operating conditions. In addition, it is simple to install and easy to use, making it an ideal switch for many applications.
