914CE18-9

Snap Action, Limit Switches

The 914CE18-9 limit switch is a type of snap action switch, which is designed to open or close an electrical contact when a physical object reaches a set point. It is commonly used to control the movement of a machine or to detect the presence of an object. The 914CE18-9 is a single pole double throw switch, or SPDT, meaning it can switch two different circuits at the same time. It is designed for use on actuator arms and other equipment that need to move quickly, such as automated roller doors.

The 914CE18-9 is typically used in applications involving door, gate, and other limitations on machines. The switch can detect when an object strikes the switch\'s arm, causing it to open and close, and controlling the machine\'s operation. The switch is also used in safety systems that shut off machinery in the event of a sudden change in airflow or temperature.

A limit switch is an electromechanical device that is operated by the movement of its internal componentry. The 914CE18-9 has an internal coil-spring mechanism with a plunger that is pushed or pulled when an object contacting the switch\'s arm. When the plunger is pushed or pulled, electrical contacts are either opened or closed, depending on the type of switch and the position of the arm.

The 914CE18-9 also has a range of adjustable parameters, allowing for different applications and different levels of control. The adjustable parameters include the switch operating force, contact travel distance, contact speed, and contact gap size. These parameters can be adjusted to suit the specific requirements of the application.

The 914CE18-9 is a durable switch that is built to last, with high-temperature ratings of up to 95°C, making it suitable for use in highly demanding applications. It is also resistant to shocks and vibrations, making it ideal for applications such as high-speed machinery and door operation. The switch is rated for up to 10 million actuations, ensuring that it will provide reliable service for a long time.

In summary, the 914CE18-9 limit switch is a durable, high-temperature switch that is designed to detect the presence of objects and control the movement of machines. It is suitable for use in a wide range of applications, including door operators and other safety systems, and it has adjustable parameters to suit the demands of the application. The switch is built to last, with ratings of up to 10 million actuations, and it is resistant to shocks and vibrations, making it an ideal choice for any industrial application.
