924CE16-T3

Snap Action, Limit Switches

The 924CE16-T3 is a single pole, single throw (SPST) snap action limit switch. The 924CE16-T3 is used as a safety switch or as a proximity switch. This device is a non-latching type switch, meaning that it will open without applying any external force. It consists of a molded plastic case and a silver alloy contact. The function of the 924CE16-T3 is to trigger an electrical circuit when it is activated by an external force, such as a door being opened or when a pressure is applied.

The working principle of the 924CE16-T3 is as follows: an actuator is attached to the switch, which is in turn connected to a plunger arm. When the actuator is activated by an external force, the plunger arm is forced to move and this in turn causes the silver alloy contact to open, triggering the electrical circuit. When the external force is removed, the plunger arm and the silver alloy contact will return to their original position, closing the electrical circuit.

The 924CE16-T3 has a variety of applications. Commonly, it is used in security systems as an alarm to detect movement or tampering of doors, windows and other entryways. It can also be used as an overload or downlimit switch in industrial machines. It is also useful in a variety of combustible and hazardous environments, such as power plants and oil refineries, where high temperatures are a concern. The 924CE16-T3 can be used to detect and prevent sudden changes in pressure or temperature.

The 924CE16-T3 is a reliable and resilient device, able to withstand harsh environmental conditions such as moisture, dust and shock. It has a sturdy construction and is RoHS compliant and UL recognized. With its simple design and low cost, the 924CE16-T3 is ideal for a wide range of applications.

In conclusion, the 924CE16-T3 is an ideal solution for applications anywhere from residential security to industrial process control. With its rugged construction and proven performance, the 924CE16-T3 Limit Switch is a reliable and cost-effective way to control electrical circuits.
