HBS2KCB4ST055C

Snap Action, Limit Switches

The HBS2KCB4ST055C is a snap action, limit switch. These types of switches are used to detect the position of objects within an application and control the operation of specific functions. They are commonly installed onto moving mechanisms, like actuators, and are designed to help detect the presence or absence of something. The HBS2KCB4ST055C is a specially designed limit switch which has been specifically designed for industrial applications where the limit switch needs to be reliable, dependable and with extended switching cycles.

Application Field

The primary application field for the HBS2KCB4ST055C is in industrial processes. This switch can be used in a variety of applications, including in the printing, food processing and packaging, automotive, and paint manufacturing industries. Additionally, this switch is suitable for use in any industry which requires a reliable switching mechanism in a harsh environment.

Working Principle

A limit switch is composed of an actuator, an electrical contact, and a housing or support. The primary mode of operation is to detect the presence or displacement of an object. The actuator is attached to a contact arm, which rotates when activated by an object. When the contact arm strikes a contact, the electrical circuit is closed, which starts a sequence of events in the application, and when the actuator is withdrawn from the contact, the electrical circuit is opened.

The HBS2KCB4ST055C is a snap action, limit switch. This means that the contact arm is equipped with a spring power that allows it to move back and forth when an object is present. As the contact arm moves, the spring power increases or decreases the amount of force applied, allowing the switch to detect even very small variations in objects.

The HBS2KCB4ST055C is built to be reliable and dependable, even in harsh environments. The switch is equipped with vibration dampening, which helps to protect it against damage from vibration and shock. Additionally, the contact arm is designed to prevent jamming and misalignment, and the housing is designed to be dust and moisture resistant. This all adds up to a reliable and dependable limit switch that is well suited for industrial applications.
