Snap Action, Limit Switches: 91MCE1-P2 Application Field and Working Principle

Snap action, limit switches are an essential component for automation control, providing reliable and accurate protective control for many industrial applications. The 91MCE1-P2 model is a popular choice for rectangular and circular handle limit switches. Its reliable and durable design meets the needs of most demanding applications.

Features

The 91MCE1-P2 limit switch is constructed from strong thermoplastic, stainless steel, and aluminum materials. Its rectangular and circular handle designs are adjustable in a wide range of operating positions, allowing it to be used in a variety of applications. It has a corrosion-resistant nickel-plated brass case and a galvanized steel or solid aluminum shaft rod. It also has an improved operating force of 6 times the original for an expanded range of application uses.

The 91MCE1-P2 switch is also equipped with a contact block that consists of an adjustable contact pad and cam with adjustable rollers. The adjustable contact pad adjusts the cam to the desired operating position, providing added safety and accuracy. The other details include a wire termination, trip mechanism, and a positive action. It is designed with a Plug & Play feature, allowing for easy installation and a secure fit.

Application Field and Working Principle

The 91MCE1-P2 switch can be used in a variety of applications, including mechanical equipment, hydraulics, cranes, elevators, pneumatic systems, and automotive control systems. In these applications, it acts as a safety device and control element to regulate movements or positions, prevent excessive loads on working parts, and aid in inspections.

When in use, the 91MCE1-P2 switch operates through contact switching. As the switch is actuated, the contact pad is released and the cam rotates, activating the limit switch to an open or closed position. When the limit switch reaches its target position, the contact pads make contact, causing the contact block to open or close. The switch continues to operate until the limit switch is reset.

Advantages

The 91MCE1-P2 limit switch provides many advantages. It is highly reliable, having a long service life with minimum maintenance needs; it is adjustable to accommodate a wide range of positions; and it is easy to install with the Plug & Play feature. In addition, it is resistant to corrosion, making it ideal for use in harsh environments. The 91MCE1-P2 is also cost-effective, making it an attractive option for commercial settings.

Conclusion

The 91MCE1-P2 limit switch is an effective solution for automated control applications. It offers high reliability, adjustable configurability, and corrosion resistance for harsh environments. Its design helps reduce operational costs and decreases downtime for maintenance. The 91MCE1-P2 limit switch is a reliable, durable, and cost-effective option for industrial applications.
