OP-AR141

Snap Action, Limit Switches

The OP-AR141 is an electrical switch that is specially designed for snap action, limit switches. It has a number of different product features and advantages that make it ideal for use in a wide range of applications. The switch is activated by an external force, which causes a mechanical reaction, resulting in either an open or closed contact. The switch is easily reversible and can be used in both directions. It is compact, lightweight, and has a wide operating temperature range. It is also highly reliable, with a long life span of up to one million operations. The switch is easy to install and maintain, and is UL, CE and RoHs certified.

Working Principle

The OP-AR141 snap action, limit switch is operated on the principal of motion-induced contact closing and opening. When the external force is triggered, it causes a mechanical release that results in a quick change of the switch position. The high-speed response and accuracy of switching operation is achieved by using a dedicated plunger that carries out the operation in a very short time. The switch can easily detect a wide range of movements, ranging from minuscule to large rotations. As the switch does not require external power to operate, it is very reliable and ensures a long operational life.

Application Areas

The OP-AR141 is suitable for a wide range of applications in both industrial and consumer sectors. It is widely used in safety devices and limit switches that detect the movement or position of objects. The switch is also used in a range of control systems that monitor the opening or closing of various components. Common applications include push-buttons, toggle switches, keyboard and joystick switches, door and window switches, rocker switches and automotive switches. The switch is also used in medical equipment and other areas where a reliable, accurate and fast response is required.

Conclusion

The OP-AR141 snap action, limit switch is an advanced and reliable switch. It is ideal for a variety of applications, ranging from consumer to industrial, and is widely used in safety devices, control systems and automotive switches. The switch has a long life span of up to one million operations, and is UL, CE and RoHs certified. It is easy to install and maintain, and offers a quick and accurate response to external forces.
