SS-10D

Snap action, Limit switches are one of the several types of switches used by industrial and commercial houses. For making switching operations of production lines, factory automation and process control, these switches are indispensable. The SS-10D is one such limit switch that helps in switching operations of such production lines in the most efficient manner.

The SS-10D is a Spring return limit switch that consists of a contact arm and actuator. The contact arm is a plunger type switch, and it moves forwards and backwards when actuated. A spring is fastened to the back of the contact arm and helps to return the arm to the unlatched position once actuated. At the end of the contact arm is a cam, which when pressed, causes the actuating arm to move up and down. On one side of the cam is a slot, which is the detection point for the actuator, and when it triggers the cam, the switch is actuated.

The SS-10D is primarily used in applications where the switch needs to be kept in a certain position for a long time, and then actuated when needed, such as in production lines. In addition, these switches are designed to work in harsh environments such as dust, water, and other particle contamination, as well as in extreme temperatures. The SS-10D is also designed to be resistant to shock and vibration, and is thus suitable for applications in difficult environments.

When it comes to operation, the SS-10D works in the following way: when the switch is triggered, the contact arm moves forward and the actuator triggers the cam, thus activating the switch and allowing the switch to stay in the activated state until it is reset by the operator. The reset mechanism of the SS-10D is simple yet efficient, as it only requires an operator to press the reset button, thus allowing the arm to be released and reset to its original state. This allows the switch to be used in high-speed applications, such as production lines, where quick switching is necessary.

The SS-10D is also designed with an LED indicator, which helps to show the state of the switch – whether it is on or off. This indicator can be customized to provide different colors for various states, such as red for on and green for off. This helps to easily identify the state of the switch and provides a visual indication of its status.

Overall, the SS-10D limit switch is a reliable and durable device, designed to provide fast and reliable switching operations in harsh environments. Furthermore, the LED indicator, reset button and cam help to make the switch more efficient, while the use of a plunger type switch provides reliable and accurate switching operations.
