AM50634A33-A

AM50634A33-A are snap action, limit switches typically used for controlling or monitoring electric circuits. They are often referred to as “limit switches”, because they are used to limit the operations of machines or switch off parts of the circuit. Limit switches are normally open switches that open or close the circuits when a set point is reached.

In principle, a snap action, limit switch uses a spring-loaded mechanism enclosed in a housing. The mechanical movement of the position system is blocked until a certain force is applied to the actuator. If a low enough force is applied, the actuator will move in a certain direction and cause a contact inside the housing to close, thus sending an electric signal to the circuit. The circuit is powered when the contact is closed, and is turned off when the contact is opened.

These switches are especially useful in diverse range of applications where precise control is required in a rugged environment. Examples of applications include machine tools, packaging machines, cooking ranges, and production lines. They are also used in conveyor systems, water heaters, air compressors and lifts. They are often used on automatic doors, escalators and elevators, or any other motorized equipment. They are also used in automotive applications, such as suspension, engine control and interior components.

The AM50634A33-A snap action, limit switches are designed to provide reliable operation and precise adjustment of the switch. The snap action mechanism ensures a quick response and precise actuation, while the housing is made of strong yet lightweight material. The housings are also well-sealed to protect against dust and water, and IP ratings range from IP67 to IP68. The adjustable position systems and the signal output in form of a voltage pulse or switch) provide users with precise control of the switching cycles.

The AM50634A33-A also feature strong magnets that can be used to control and monitor the switch’s operating temperature. This can be useful for temperature sensitive applications such as ovens, cooktops, and water heaters. By installing the switch outside the temperature zone, the switch can monitor the temperature and activate the switch accordingly, without exposing the internal parts to high temperatures.

The AM50634A33-A snap action, limit switches come in a range of sizes and shapes, which makes them suitable for a vast range of applications. They are available in both normally open and normally closed versions, as well as a range of operating voltages and currents. The operating temperature ranges from -40 to 135°C, and can be up to 80°C in certain models. The actuation force can be adjusted to suit the particular application, and the switches can be used with both digital and analog inputs.

Overall, AM50634A33-A snap action, limit switches are the ideal solution for controlling, monitoring, and switching machines or parts of an electric circuit. They are extremely durable and robust, and can be used in a wide range of applications. They are also very easy to install and maintain, and their adjustable position systems, signal output and magnets make them even more powerful.
