GSAA20A1B

Snap action, limit switches are versatile and important devices that are used in various industries and applications. A GSAA20A1B is one such snap action, limit switch that can be used in a variety of applications.

The GSAA20A1B comes in a very compact size package and yet provides a high rating in terms of breaking capacity. At 10A and up to 277V, the GSAA20A1B can handle a wide range of uses and can be relied on to provide reliable switching performance.

The GSAA20A1B utilizes a plunger style actuator and a normally open (NO) contact. An NO contact will make a connection when the actuator is depressed. This type of switch is commonly used in applications such as automotive, industrial automation, office equipment, HVAC and security.

The working principle of the GSAA20A1B limit switch is quite simple. It consists of a plunger, a switch contact and a spring. When the plunger is pressed, the switch contact is closed. The spring then forces the plunger back open, thus breaking the connection.

The GSAA20A1B is typically used in applications where accuracy and reliability are critical. Examples include controlling the position of robots in manufacturing and automating industrial processes. It is also used in household items such as door alarm systems and to control or limit access to rooms and areas.

In applications where safety and control are important, the GSAA20A1B can be connected to a safety relay to ensure that the safety of personnel and equipment is not compromised. This type of switch is especially useful in applications where personnel could be injured due to an unexpected contact with live voltage.

In conclusion, the GSAA20A1B is a versatile, reliable and accurate snap action, limit switch that is suitable for a wide range of applications. With its high breaking capacity and plunger style actuator, the GSAA20A1B can be used in safety and control applications as well as for industrial automation and other purposes.
