Snap action and limit switches are vital components in control and automation systems. They provide precise and reliable operation of equipment and machinery. GKRE6L8S4 is a high performance, snap action, limit switch from leading manufacturer, WIKA Instruments.

Application Field of GKRE6L8S4

GKRE6L8S4 is widely used in applications requiring tight control and safety. In the automotive sector, it is widely used as a speed sensor switch. It is suitable for both linear and rotary speed sensors, supplying constant performance and accuracy in harsh conditions. The switch is also widely used in the industrial sector, where precision and safety are key. It is often used in conveyor belt systems to indicate the presence of an item and to stop the system automatically if a problem arises. It is also used to control pumps, fans and motors in industrial processes.

Working Principle of GKRE6L8S4

GKRE6L8S4 is a snap action, limit switch, meaning it is a device that uses two contacts to open or close an electrical circuit when an object passes through the switch. When the switch is in an open position, the contacts remain open and no electricity is allowed to flow. When the object passes the switch, the contacts close and electricity is allowed to flow, thus initiating an action in the system.

GKRE6L8S4 is equipped with precision engineered snap action components, allowing it to react fast and provide reliable performance in tough conditions. The switch features a latch mechanism which ensures that the electrical contacts remain closed even after the object has passed the switch, thus ensuring safety. The switch is manufactured with a double-break contact system, which provides improved safety and enhanced reliability.

GKRE6L8S4 is an ideal choice for applications that require precise and reliable performance in harsh conditions. It is designed for long life and can withstand extreme temperatures, making it suitable for even the most challenging applications. Its robust design and reliable operation make it an ideal choice for industrial and automotive applications.
