D4N-1B31

Introduction

D4N-1B31 is a type of snap action, limit switch developed by Omron. The limit switch provides precise sensing capability which allows it to be able to detect minute movements of various types of moving objects, such as mechanical actuators. It is known for its excellent durability in harsh environments and its extremely robust designs which meet the needs of various applications.

Application Field

The D4N-1B31 is designed to be used as a safety limit switch for industrial applications such as machine control, traffic control systems, and for detecting the position of various machines. It can be used in a variety of industries, from automotive assembly to woodworking. The limit switch can also be used in clean rooms, hazardous environments, and in applications where precise triggering is required.

Working Principle

The working principle of the D4N-1B31 limit switch is based on its construction. The switch consists of a contact block, a mechanical actuator, and a body frame which supports the contact block. The contact block is made up of two parts: a stationary portion which is connected to the body frame, and a free-moving portion which is connected to the actuator. When the limit switch is triggered by an object, the free-moving portion of the contact block moves and compresses a spring, causing the switch to actuate. The switch then makes an electrical contact and provides an output signal.

The switch is designed to be dust tight and sealed from water and the environment. This ensures that the parts of the limit switch are not damaged by dust and moisture. The contact blocks are made from materials that provide superior wear resistance and corrosion resistance, which ensures that the switch will remain reliable over its entire lifetime.

Conclusion

The D4N-1B31 limit switch is an ideal solution for applications that require precise triggering and reliable performance. The switch is extremely durable and can be used in harsh environments. The switch is well suited for a variety of applications, from machine control to traffic control. The limit switch is easy to install and provides reliable performance.
