91MCE16-P2BP

Many mechanical and electronic devices require integrated switches for their operation. Snap Action, Limit Switches are one of the most commonly used type of switches. They are constructed of two separate pieces – an actuator, which operates the switch, and a contact, which closes the circuit when the actuator is operated.

91MCE16-P2BP is a Snap Action, Limit Switch. The 91MCE16-P2BP is a single-pole, double-throw (SPDT) switching device. It has a single movable arm, which can be actuated by means of a metallic lever. When the arm is pushed either down or up, the switch contact opens or closes, respectively.

The 91MCE16-P2BP limit switch is designed for application where the required force to actuate the switch is on the higher side, typically, greater than 500g of force. It offers high contact stability and can be operated from distances up to 50 mm. The 91MCE16-P2BP is available in both Screw Mounted and Through-Hole format and can be used in a variety of applications.

The typical application field of 91MCE16-P2BP includes the automotive industry, gaming machines, medical equipment and industrial applications. It can also be used in home appliances and HVAC systems. This switch can be used for limit control, position sensing and level control.

The working principle of 91MCE16-P2BP can be explained with the help of a simple diagram. When the switch is actuated, the contact is first pushed up, followed by a spring-loaded action. This action works against the metallic arm and ensures that the arm remains engaged in the contact\'s movement. When the actuator is released, a reverse action is carried out. This action closes the contact and the switch stays in the engaged position.

In conclusion, the 91MCE16-P2BP is a Snap Action, Limit Switch and it is used in a wide range of applications. It has a single movable arm and it operates on the principle of spring-loaded mechanism. This switch is available in both Screw Mounted and Through-Hole formats and it offers reliable operation.
