Snap Action, Limit Switches

Snap action limit switches are specialized electromechanical devices used for detecting, signaling, or controlling an electric current. Such switches are characterized by their distinctive "snap" when triggered, which is an audible indication of a change in the switch state. This makes them an excellent choice for industrial control applications where accuracy, reliability, and repeatability are essential.

The GKLE3L6S4 snap action limit switch is a type of single pole double throw (SPDT) switch and is used to control electrical circuits by switching them on and off. It consists of two independent and mechanically linked Reed contacts enclosed in a hermetically sealed stainless steel housing. The switch is triggered either mechanically via an actuator, or with an electrical signal.

Application Field

The GKLE3L6S4 is typically used in harsh industrial environments such as steel mills, factories, and process control applications. It is well-suited for applications that require a reliable, durable, and repeatable switch. It is designed to switch heavy current loads of up to 30 amps, and can be used in either AC or DC applications.

In addition, the GKLE3L6S4 can be used as a safety interlock switch, which is a critical component of safety systems that cut off power to prevent accidents. It can also be used to detect the presence or lack of a part in a process line, such as a motor spindle or fan blade.

Working Principle

The GKLE3L6S4 functions by controlling the flow of electrical current through a set of two contacts. The contacts are mechanically linked, which means that when one contact is activated, the other contact is also automatically activated. When the switch is triggered, the contacts are momentarily open, allowing electrical current to flow through the circuit, before they are now permanently closed.

The GKLE3L6S4 switch can be triggered by an external force, such as a push button, or an electrical signal. When triggered mechanically, the Reed contact ‘snaps’ open, creating an audible snap sound. This snap sound is an indication that the switch has been successfully triggered. The electrical signal is used to switch the contacts by creating a magnetic field to open and close the contacts.

Overall, the GKLE3L6S4 snap action limit switch is a reliable, durable, and accurate switch. It can be used in a wide variety of industrial applications, from safety interlock systems to monitoring the presence of parts in a process line. Its audible snap sound provides assurance of a successful change in the switch state.
