LCGDL9P00HY

Snap Action Limit Switches are a type of electrical switch triggered by mechanical force. The LCGDL9P00HY is a memmber of this family and is typically used when a sudden, physical force is required to trigger the switch. The LCGDL9P00HY is a solid-state device with a built in amplifier and latching function, meaning that the state of the output can be modified by applying a brief electrical signal.

The LCGDL9P00HY offers a variety of applications in electronics, automation, industrial automation and robotics. Common uses include pressure and temperature control, flow and level monitoring, machine safety, and limit position sensing. The switch is a bi-stable type which can be programmed to remain in any given state until overwritten by another input, even in the event of power failure.

The LCGDL9P00HY can withstand up to 4.5A at 250V, making it suitable for use with a wide range of AC and DC circuits. For additional safety in high-voltage applications, the switch features a built-in positive thermal coefficient (PTC) circuit breaker. In addition, the switch includes built-in overload protection by way of a thermal fuse.

The working principle of the LCGDL9P00HY switch is relatively straightforward. When triggered, either manually or mechanically, the switch changes state, i.e. it either turns on or off a circuit. This is achieved through the switch’s sensitive internal components which respond to mechanical force and electrical signals to change their state. In order to remain active, the switch must be regularly reset or re-triggered. This can be achieved electronically or mechanically depending on the type of application.

The LCGDL9P00HY switch has become a popular choice among users due to its versatility, reliability and cost-effectiveness. It is a well-engineered, reliable switch suitable for a variety of applications, including industrial automation and robotics, plus pressure, temperature, flow and level monitoring, machine safety, and limit position sensing. Furthermore, the switch provides a high level of protection against overload, making it a great choice for high-voltage environments.
