DSSE10(O)P

Snap Action, Limit Switches

Snap action, limit switches are electromechanical switches used in engineering and industrial applications to detect the presence or absence of a physical attribute such as position, pressure or vigor. They have been specifically designed with a mechanism that allows the switch to “snap” between two states for more reliable performance.

The DSSE10(O)P (pneumatic operated) is a compact, heavy duty snap action, limit switch. It is designed for applications where sensitive action, robust construction, and long life are crucial. Its robust construction allows it to withstand the harsh environments often encountered in industrial applications. Its design also provides excellent repeatability, dependability and safety.

The working principle of the DSSE10(O)P snap action, limit switch involves sensing the physical attribute being monitored and then transmitting an electrical signal to a circuit controlling or interpreting the detected attribute. The switch has a mechanical actuator to move the contact elements to either the “On” or “Off” position, depending on the signal generated. When the physical attribute is detected, such as a limit or position, the contact element inside the switch will snap to either the “On” or “Off” position, thus providing an indication of the sensed attribute.

The DSSE10(O)P snap action, limit switches can be used in many Industrial and other applications, such as controlling motors for precisely positioning robotics, controlling the on/off operation of valves in fluid systems, monitoring the presence or absence of objects in conveyor systems and many more. The potential applications are practically endless with the designs flexibility and reliability.

When selecting a snap action, limit switch for your application, some crucial factors that should be taken into consideration include the operating environment, safety certifications, durability and longevity of the switch, operating temperature range and IP protection rating. Additionally, the application must be well thought out and the switch must be correctly mounted to ensure safe and reliable performance.

In conclusion, DSSE10(O)P snap action, limit switches have been specifically built for the industrial market. They have a superior design, providing reliable repeatability, dependability and safety. With their flexible designs and reliability, they provide complete solutions to many common industrial applications.
