D4N-1D25

Snap Action, Limit Switches

Limit switches, also known as snap action switches, provide reliability, accuracy and make sure that specific events or processes are accurately tracked when it comes to the automation of industrial and production processes. The D4N-1D25 is one of the most popular models of limit switches due to its design, durability and ability to accommodate a range of diverse applications.

The Structure of the D4N-1D25 Switch

The D4N-1D25 limit switch consists of a low voltage switch that has four stops, making it suitable for a variety of operations. It is also constructed with a rotary actuator, which allows for a range of features including external cam and push-button options, quick disconnect, indicators and adjustable contacts. The D4N-1D25 is available in both non-metallic and metallic enclosures, allowing for further customization. Additionally, the switch is designed to be durable and able to withstand temperatures of up to 120°C (248°F).

Application Field of the D4N-1D25 Switch

The D4N-1D25 is designed to be a versatile switch, so it is suitable for a range of applications, including industrial and production processes. This type of switch is most commonly used in safety mechanisms, as it can detect and report any malfunctions, failures or irregularities that occur. It is especially popular among manufacturers, as the switch can be used to both monitor and control movements and the speed of production by tracking events or processes.

This limit switch is also suitable for other applications such as providing feedback on the position of a machine part, providing security systems with sensors to detect and avoid contact or breakage with other parts, and can also be used to control movement on conveyor belts as it is capable of monitoring and tracking things like acceleration, deceleration and velocity.

Working Principle of the D4N-1D25 Switch

The D4N-1D25 limit switch works on the principle of electrical contacts opening and closing when a physical element mounted to the switch, such as a lever or arm, is moved. As the arm is moved, it passes through the various switches’ contact points, closing or opening up the circuit connected to them. If the arm is moved, the circuit is closed and the electric current flows. When the arm is released, the circuit is broken and the current stops flowing.

This basic principle is applied to all types of limit switches, but the D4N-1D25 is unique in that it is designed to be incredibly durable, highly accurate, and able to accommodate a range of different applications. Additionally, the switch is self-soaking and can handle up to 120°C (248°F) of temperature, which adds to its robustness depending on the application.

Conclusion

The D4N-1D25 limit switch is a versatile and durable switch that is suitable for a range of applications, from safety mechanisms to industrial and production processes. Its self-soaking feature allows it to withstand temperatures up to 120°C (248°F) and its rotary actuator is adjustable, allowing for further customization. The D4N-1D25 switch is ideal for applications that require dependable and accurate feedback, and is available in both non-metallic and metallic enclosures.
