GLLC03A3B

Snap Action, Limit Switches

GLLC03A3B is a type of snap action, limit switch that utilizes a micro switch to actuate when one or more electrical contacts are opened or closed. The switch is used in various applications such as appliances, circuit breakers and elevators.

Construction

GLLC03A3B is constructed using high quality die-cast aluminum and zinc-plated steel structures. It also uses stainless steel components for superior corrosion resistance against harsh environmental conditions. Its exterior is designed for robustness and outdoor use.

Design

GLLC03A3B is designed to provide superior flexibility in terms of switch operation and installation. It can be mounted on DIN rail, and is also equipped with a mounting terminal for easy installation. The product also has two M4 machine screws to ensure easy adjustment of the switch.

Mechanism

On the GLLC03A3B, the mechanism used is a bladed mechanical actuator “blade” which is fastened to the top of a spring-loaded base. This blade arm is enclosed in a tube and operates by pressing the actuator along its longitudinal axis. The snap action switch is then actuated when the arm is displaced.

Working Principle

GLLC03A3B works by utilizing a snap-action mechanism to open and close electrical contacts, which provide momentary or maintained electromagnetic control for a variety of applications. The switch is actuated when the knife arm is displaced and the base is rotated. The electrical contacts within the switch then open and close, depending on the direction of the rotation. The contacts are then reset as the spring-loaded base pulls the blade arm back in its resting position.

Applications

The GLLC03A3B is suitable for use in a variety of applications that require a snap-action switch. This includes circuit breakers, elevators, vending machines, and even medical instruments, since it offers superior reliability. It is also suitable for temperatures ranging from -40° to 75° Celsius, and can be operated in both wet and dry environments with low dust levels.
