I12-SB213

Snap Action, Limit Switches

The I12-SB213 is a type of snap-action, limit switch. It was designed to operate in multiple application fields, such as air conditioning systems, automatic door openers, and industrial electrical machinery. Limit switches tell an electric circuit when to turn itself off, making them very important components in a wide variety of electrical and mechanical applications.

The I12-SB213 is a compact, single-pole double-throw limit switch. It is unique due to its increased voltage rating, wide mechanical life, and double side-by-side base connection. This makes it an ideal choice for use as a limit switch in a variety of applications.

Working Principle

The working principle of the I12-SB213 is simple and effective. When the switch is in its "off" position, the electric circuit is open and no current is flowing; however, when its lever is moved to the "on" position, the circuit is closed, allowing electricity to flow. This action of opening and closing a circuit is known as a "snap-action," which is why this switch is classified as a snap-action, limit switch.

The I12-SB213 is designed to be incredibly reliable and durable, even in harsh conditions. The switch is made of durable materials, including an all-metal case and an aluminum housing. Additionally, it is rated up to 10 amps and 250 volts, meaning it can handle higher levels of voltage and current than other limit switches.

Applications

The I12-SB213 can be used in a wide variety of applications, including air conditioning systems, automatic door openers, and industrial electrical machinery. The switch is especially well-suited to applications in which it is necessary to detect the movement of a mechanical part, since the I12-SB213 is triggered when it receives a mechanical input. Additionally, since it is rated for up to 10 amps and 250 volts, this switch is perfect for powering space heaters, electric ranges, and other appliances.

The I12-SB213 is a highly reliable and durable switch, making it an excellent choice for any application in which the highest level of performance is necessary. Its wide voltage rating, unique double side-by-side base connection, and compact size make it an ideal choice for various industrial and commercial applications.
