Snap action limit switches are electrical components actuated by mechanically operated levers. When moved to the operating position, the operating lever causes a change in a specific electrical contact, thus enabling or disabling the flow of electrical currents. The LSK1E-8C is a single-pole, double-throw snap action limit switch that is a combination of two separate functions. It is capable of providing an activated switch and as a safety device that helps to prevent overload or over-heating conditions.

The LSK1E-8C is an enclosed, solid-state device that has three main parts: an operating head, a contact body, and a plunger. The operating head is the most visible component and is composed of three levers, a counter-balance arm, and a frictionless roller. The contact body contains two changing contacts, which can be in either the normally open or normally closed position, depending on the application. The plunger is connected to the operating head and contacts a spring-loaded plunger, which creates a mechanical tension.

The primary application field for the LSK1E-8C is in programs and machines where a reliable and precise control of the starting and stopping operations is essential. Typical applications include press controls, conveyor systems, machine tool operations, light fixtures, and automated machinery. The operating lever of the LSK1E-8C can be adjusted to produce the desired throw and contact action. With its adjustable torque and contact closure characteristics, the LSK1E-8C is an excellent choice for many applications that require a reliable and consistent switching action.

The working principle of the LSK1E-8C is based on a simple mechanical technology. When the operating lever is pressed, the roller exerts a force against the counter-balance arm, causing the plunger to move upward. As the plunger moves, it changes the position of the contact body, which causes the contacts to close or open. When the roller is released, the counter-balance arm returns the plunger to its original position, thus opening or closing the contacts depending on the initial force applied. By using a properly adjusted contact voltage, this mechanism can be used to provide an exact and reliable switching operation.

The LSK1E-8C is a cost-effective and reliable limit switch solution for many industrial and commercial applications. With its flexible and adjustable operating head, it can be customized to meet the demands of each application and provide an efficient and accurate switching solution. By combining rugged construction with a reliable switch mechanism, the LSK1E-8C provides an ideal solution for industrial operations.
