HBS2KAB4ST055C

Snap Action

Snap action, limit switches are mechanically operated switches that can detect the presence or absence of something. They are used as actuators and control devices and have been around since the early twentieth century. They can sense a wide range of different physical conditions, including temperature, pressure, and position.

The HBS2KAB4ST055C is a snap action, limit switch. It is a small self-contained, mechanically operated, low-cost device. It has a single, flat, contact and is designed for use in environments that are subject to frequent electrical and mechanical failure.

The HBS2KAB4ST055C is suitable for use in a variety of applications that require reliable switching. These include industrial and consumer electronics, automotive, security, and medical equipment. It is suitable for use in applications such as over-temperature protection, switch-on/off control, door and window sensors, security system inputs, and output detection.

Working Principle

When a current or voltage is applied to the switch, a coil, called an actuator, is activated. The actuator then moves a plunger off of its normal resting position, springing the switch open. The switch then remains open until the plunger is reset by hand or by an external force.

When the switch is open, an internal conduction path is opened and an electrical circuit is opened. When the switch is closed, an internal contact is made and an electrical circuit is completed. This is how all snap action limit switches work: when the current or voltage is applied, the plunger is actuated, opening or closing the switch.

The HBS2KAB4ST055C is designed to withstand up to 250V AC at 1 amp and can be used in temperatures up to +85C. It is designed with a stainless steel blade for a long life and is RoHS compliant.

The HBS2KAB4ST055C is a reliable and cost-effective solution for applications that require a reliable and accurate switch. It is durable and resistant to wear and tear and can be used in a variety of applications. In addition, it is economical, making it an ideal choice for a wide range of applications.
