D4N-1A31

D4N-1A31 Application Field and Working Principle

The D4N-1A31 is a snap action, limit switch manufactured by OMRON, a global leader in automation, industrial technologies, and robotics. The D4N-1A31 is a basic all-purpose device used primarily for detecting the presence of objects and for controlling mechanical systems, including conveyor lines. The D4N-1A31 offers a number of benefits that make it a popular choice among automation suppliers and users alike.

Application Field

The D4N-1A31 snap action, limit switch can be used in a variety of applications, and is ideally suited for detection of objects in manufactured systems, such as those used in the automotive, pharmaceutical, and other industries. It helps automate processes in areas such as stock distribution and machine feeders, and can also be used in production facilities to detect parts positions and to monitor operating conditions. The D4N-1A31 switch is also highly suitable for detecting the end and/or start of travel positions in automation systems.

Working principle

The snap action switch works on the principle of levers and fulcrums. The switch is triggered when an operator or machine applies force to the lever. When the lever is pressed down, the fulcrum is pushed up, effectively tripping the switch. This in turn causes a circuit to be broken, which then activates some action in the machine or system. In the case of the D4N-1A31, the integrated magnetic switch feature allows for more precise switching. The D4N-1A31 is equipped with a highly sensitive microswitch, which is capable of detecting decrease in voltage or resistance much faster than other switches. The switch is also capable of detecting an increase in temperature.

Features and Benefits

The D4N-1A31 provides a number of benefits. The switch is rated at a maximum of 10A, which provides greater flexibility in terms of the control applications it can be used for. It also supports a variety of input and output contacts, which allows it to be used in a range of different systems. The switch is compact and lightweight, making it easy to install in tight places. It has a snap-acting design, which makes it resistant to shock and vibration, and it also provides increased levels of safety for equipment operators. The switch is also highly reliable and durable, providing many years of operation without requiring replacement.

The D4N-1A31 snap-action limit switch is a reliable and effective solution for detecting objects and controlling mechanical systems. Its affordability and robust construction make it a great choice for those looking for a dependable and low-cost switch. Its features, such as its magnetic switch and highly sensitive microswitch, offer a high level of accuracy and reliability, making it a popular choice for automation systems.
