TFCDF5ST1640Y Datasheet/PDFSnap Action, Limit Switches - TFCDF5ST1640Y Application Field And Working Principle
TFCDF5ST1640Y Snap Action, Limit Switches are designed to provide cost-effective, reliable, and durable switching solutions. These switches feature an industry-standard mounting and interface style, so they are easy to install and integrate into existing circuits. With their wide range of compatible accessories, they can be utilized in a variety of applications.
The TFCDF5ST1640Y series has two main components, the actuator and sensor. The actuator is the device that physically actuates the switch, either through a plunger, lever, or leaf element. The majority of snap action switches use a plunger or a lever for actuation, with flexibility for customization. The sensor is the device that detects the change in the elements in the actuation and is usually a reed switch. The contact configuration of the switch can be Normally Open (NO) or Normally Closed (NC). They can also come with single pole, double pole, and multiple poles.
TFCDF5ST1640Y Snap Action, Limit Switches are used in a variety of applications, from industrial automation to automotive and HVAC. Some of these applications include: door and window open/close sensing, motor/servo control, pump/fan control, and industrial machine control. In these applications, the primary function of the switch is to provide a feedback to the controller or device. The switch then sends an electronic signal to the controller, which can be used by the controller to determine the status of the application or device. These switches are also used in safety applications, where the switch will trip if a certain threshold is crossed, or the device exceeds a pre-defined norm.
TFCDF5ST1640Y Snap Action, Limit Switches can be installed in several ways. The two main methods are direct mounting and panel mounting. In direct mounting, the switch is mounted directly on the application and connected to a terminal block or board. In panel mounting, the switch is installed on the front panel of the application and the wiring is connected to the back of the panel.
When the switch is actuated, the reed switch inside the switch opens or closes. This opens or closes the contact in the switch, which then sends a signal to the controller or device, depending on the design of the switch. The contact can also be equipped with a mechanical or electronic lockout that prevents the contact from contacting. This lockout feature is often used in safety applications, where it is necessary to prevent the contact from connecting until the relevant conditions have been met.
The TFCDF5ST1640Y Snap Action, Limit Switches provide reliable switching solutions at a cost-effective price. With their wide range of compatible accessories, they can be utilized in a variety of applications. Their simple design and installation make them an ideal solution for any application.
