GSAB20C

Snap action limit switches are one of the most versatile and reliable devices used in the automation industry. GSAB20C is a popular switch especially used in industrial automation. This device works by sensing contact between two stationary surfaces, such as when a door closes, when a safety guard is opened or when a temperature or pressure threshold has been reached. This device is specifically designed to offer high accuracy, repeatability and durability.

GSAB20C Application Field

The GSAB20C snap action limit switch can be used in the following industrial applications:

• HVAC (Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning) controls
• Process control systems
• Automation of machinery and equipment
• Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs)
• Manufacturing controls
• Robotics and industrial automation
• Test and measurement equipment

GSAB20C Working Principle

The GSAB20C snap action limit switch works by sensing contact between two stationary surfaces. When a mechanical object contacts the switch, it will cause the actuator to move. This motion is then sensed by a microcontroller, which in turn triggers a set of mechanical or electrical operations. Depending on the switch type, this could include the activation of a relay, the generation of a digital signal or the performance of an analog control.

At the heart of the GSAB20C is a spring-loaded actuator mechanism. This mechanism is designed to respond quickly and reliably to changes in environmental conditions, such as temperature or pressure. When contact is made between the two surfaces, the actuator is pushed or pulled, thereby completing the circuit and triggering the desired action.

The GSAB20C is designed to be highly reliable and durable. It features low voltage drop-off, high contact force, fast response time and low temperature coefficient, ensuring trouble-free operation in all conditions.
