D3V-16-1D56-K

The D3V-16-1D56-K is a standardized snap action, limit switch. It is fitted with a plunger, which, when pressed, activates a set of contacts and causes a momentary change in the electrical circuit. The operating force and electrical characteristics of the switch are optimized depending on the type of application it is intended for.

This type of switch is usually found in industrial, commercial, and domestic applications. In industrial settings, the switch is used for a variety of functions such as determining whether a valve is open or closed, controlling the speed at which a motor runs, or to indicate if a pressure vessel has exceeded its threshold. In commercial applications, the switch can be used to control lighting, indicate levels of stored materials, and to detect door openings. In domestic settings, these switches can be used in appliances such as ovens, laundry machines, and dishwashers.

The D3V-16-1D56-K snap action, limit switch utilizes a mechanical mechanism to effect a change in the position of a plunger when the force applied on it is exceeded. When the plunger is depressed and the operating force is exceeded, the switch mechanism causes the contacts to open and close, which creates a momentary change in the electrical circuit. The contact opens and closes quickly, which is why this type of switch is referred to as a “snap action” switch.

This type of switch is designed to operate within a prescribed range and is very versatile in terms of its operating requirements. It can be used to detect a wide variety of external and environmental conditions, such as temperature and humidity. The switch also has other features, such as the ability to be mounted in any orientation and the ability to be adjusted to respond at different levels of force or speed.

The D3V-16-1D56-K switch is also rated for a particular current rating as well as a voltage rating, so it is important to select a switch that is appropriate for the application in which it is being used. In certain applications, the switch needs to have additional protection against shock, vibration, and humidity, so it is important to select a switch that has those features.

In summary, the D3V-16-1D56-K switch is a snap action, limit switch that is designed for a variety of applications. Its plunger-actuated mechanism is able to detect a range of external and environmental conditions, making it a very versatile switch. It is also designed with a particular current and voltage rating, making it important to select one that is appropriate for the application in which it is being used. Finally, it has other features, such as the ability to be mounted in any orientation and the ability to be adjusted to respond at different levels of force or speed.
