HBS2KCB4STS11C Switches

Snap Action, Limit Switches

HBS2KCB4STS11C is a snap-action limit switch that belongs to a unique family of switches that provide users with versatile and reliable detection switches in a wide range of industries. It combines two indispensable functions in one unit: snap action (which results in an immediate and significant change of contact resistance in response to a faint movement) and limit-switching (where the direction of rotation can be determined). Its versatile design makes it easy to retrofit the product into complex applications.

Application Field

The HBS2KCB4STS11C switch is suitable for a wide range of applications, both domestic and industrial. It is the go-to limit switch for small appliances, lighting, vending machines, automotive and marine applications. It can be used in both safety and control functions, with many options available for customizing the switch to fit specific needs.

The HBS2KCB4STS11C switch has also been designed for use in medical and medical-related fields, providing reliable, repeatable, and accurate measurements. It is suitable for measuring oxygen flow, pressure, and temperature, as well as detecting the presence of medical devices and diagnostics.

Working Principle

When the switch is closed, current flows in an uninterrupted manner from the power source to the load. When the switch is opened and a detection signal is present, the snap-action component senses the signal and causes the switch contacts to close, cutting off the current flow. The switch continues to be open while in this off position. When the detection signal is removed, the limit-switch component senses this and reverses the process, allowing the switch to open and cut off the current flow.

The HBS2KCB4STS11C switch is designed to be very reliable and is built to resist light mechanical and environmental stresses. Its snap-action component allows it to react quickly and accurately to detect a signal or reverse a process, while its limit-switch component allows it to determine the direction of rotation, providing fine control. This makes it an ideal choice for many applications where reliability and accuracy are paramount.
