Snap Action, Limit Switches: D4GL-4EFA-A4 Application Field and Working Principle

Snap action switches are electromechanical on/off switches commonly used to control the electrical system. The snap action switch is composed of switch contacts and resiliently pre-stressed frames. It uses the snap action of the pre-stressed frame to open or close the switch contact. The snap action switch is one of the most commonly used electrical switches in various fields. The family of snap action switches includes two major types – limit switches and snap/toggle switches. Here, we focus on the D4GL-4EFA-A4 limit switch, which is an industrial grade limit switch with a wide range of applications. We discuss its application field, working principle and internal structure.

Application Field of D4GL-4EFA-A4 Limit Switch

The D4GL-4EFA-A4 limit switch is suitable for a variety of industrial applications. The switch is designed primarily for installation in harsh and hazardous conditions, such as those found in metalworking, shipbuilding and petrochemical plants. It is also used in remote or hazardous areas with high ambient temperature, humidity, vibration and dust. In addition, the D4GL-4EFA-A4 limit switch is suitable for typical industrial applications, such as control of simple control and alarm circuits, standard machine control, direct voltage supply, and recording and monitoring of process values.

Working Principle of D4GL-4EFA-A4 Limit Switch

The basic principle of the limit switch is the same as that of any other switch. It is controlled by an actuator, which is operated by an external force. When the external force is applied, it pushes the switch contact open or closed, thus changing the electrical state of the switch. The actuator of the D4GL-4EFA-A4 limit switch is a snap action mechanism, which is comprised of a spring-loaded frame and switch contacts. When the external force moves the frame, it causes the contacts to snap open (or closed) with a distinct and audible sound. This snap action is what gives the limit switch its name.

Internal Structure of D4GL-4EFA-A4 Limit Switch

The internal structure of the D4GL-4EFA-A4 limit switch consists of three major components: actuator assembly, switch contacts, and terminal strip. The actuator assembly is the most important component in the switch. It is comprised of a spring loaded frame, which is designed to move freely in response to an external force. The switch contacts are designed to open (or close) when the frame is moved by the actuator assembly. Finally, the terminal strip is responsible for connecting the switch contacts to the external circuit. This terminal strip can be detached to allow the switch to be used in different circuits.

Conclusion

The D4GL-4EFA-A4 limit switch is an industrial grade limit switch with a wide range of applications. It is suitable for use in harsh and hazardous industrial environments, as well as typical industrial applications such as machine control and monitoring. The switch is composed of three main components – actuator assembly, switch contacts and terminal strip. The actuator assembly is comprised of a spring-loaded frame and switch contacts. When the frame is moved by an external force, it causes the contacts to snap open or closed, thus changing the electrical state of the switch.
