I15-MM0123

Snap Action, Limit Switches are designed to respond in a snap or snap action when an electrical current is connected, an object enters the switch\'s detection range, or the switch itself is triggered. The I15-MM0123 is a type of snap action, limit switch from Siemens, specifically used when a precise position in a machine must be detected.The I15-MM0123 is a hermetically sealed switch. It is equipped with a narrow gap, making it sealed from environmental elements such as dirt, dust, water, etc. It also has a high level of electrical insulation with a rating of IP 65 (NEMA 4). It is a sturdy switch that can withstand shocks and vibrations.The I15-MM0123 can be used in various applications, such as to detect the position of a machine during the manufacturing process, to detect objects entering a machine’s detection area, and to control machines. It can also be used in applications requiring precise positioning, positioning of moving objects, or as an input or output device in an automation system. The I15-MM0123 switch consists of a single-pole, double throw (SPDT) contact, i.e., a normally open- and a normally closed contact. When the switch is triggered, the internal switch component flips, causing both the normally open- and normally closed contacts to be simultaneously switched. This type of switching is known as “snap action” and is the reason why the switch is classified as a snap action, limit switch. The I15-MM0123 switch is equipped with an adjustable, shock-resistant, spring-dedicated lever. When the switch is triggered, the lever moves to compress the internal contacts, and the SPDT contact flips, resulting in both the normally open- and closed contacts being simultaneously switched. This snap action can be achieved by either an electrical (e.g., by applying a voltage to the switch) or a mechanical signal (e.g., by pushing the lever), depending on the application. The I15-MM0123 switch can be used in a variety of applications. In some cases, it can be used to detect a precise position or object entering into a machine’s detection area, or to signal when a machine needs to be turned off or on, depending on the signal type. In other cases, the switch can be used as an input or output device in an automation system, or to detect the position of a machine during the manufacturing process. The I15-MM0123 switch is a reliable and durable switch that can withstand a variety of environmental conditions, shocks and vibrations. Its adjustable, shock-resistant, and spring-dedicated lever enables it to achieve a snap action when triggered. And its hermetically sealed design ensures that it is sealed from environmental elements, making it ideal for applications requiring precise positioning and detection of moving objects.
