D4N-1E32

Snap Action, Limit Switches

D4N-1E32 is a type of snap action, limit switch designed by Panasonic. It is designed to detect and switch on/off when a physical limit or contact point is crossed or after having pushed or moved. These are mostly used in robots and automated machinery as a resetting device.

The D4N-1E32 limit switch features an integrated circuit that is temperature compensated for medium to high duty cycles and is able to tolerate extreme temperature spikes. It is constructed from four sensor faces located along its axis and has a dielectric strength of 1,000 volts AC/DC. These limit switches have an operating force of 100gf, a release force of 30gf, and a service life of 10 million operations. The D4N-1E32 is compliant with RoHS standards for environmental requirements.

The working principle of the D4N-1E32 is that the snap action of the switch contacts triggers when a physical contact is made or when its moving part reaches a predetermined point of operation. The snap action of the contacts keeps the contact point separate until the operation is complete, with both contacts available to be reset. The four sensing elements inside the switch allow a more accurate sensing of the limit point and can be connected to a variety of PLC controllers or other industrial control systems.

These switches have a wide range of applications in industrial, commercial and consumer areas. They can be found in the following industries: automotive, building automation, food production, medical technology, HVAC systems, and robotics. They are used to detect the presence or absence of components or materials, as well as when a specific position needs to be achieved. They are also used in safety circuits to ensure that operations run smoothly without any unexpected disruptions.

The D4N-1E32 limit switch is designed to be robust, reliable and durable despite its small size. It is a great choice for applications demanding high-quality, precise and reliable limit switches.
