TFCDF5ST165BY

Limit switches (or snap action switches) are mechanical switches that can detect the motion of an object and perform an electrical signal to active or deactivate certain function. The motion of a limit switch can be for a few certain applications, such as opening and closing of a door, activating and deactivating a fan, activating and deactivating a machine and activating and deactivating a light. They may also be used for timed operation of a machine or an entire industrial process.

What is the TFCDF5ST165BY?

The TFCDF5ST165BY is a pressure-sensitive limit switch that can be used to detect the motion of an object and provide an electrical signal to activate or deactivate certain functions. This particular model is designed specifically for heavy-duty industrial applications, as it offers a rating of IP66, which is a very high level of protection against dust, dirt, moisture, and other environmental factors.

Application Field

The TFCDF5ST165BY is typically used in heavy-duty industrial applications such as controlling a motor, activating and deactivating an automated process, or controlling a lighting system. It is also used for safety applications such as sensing when a door is opened or closed and stopping an automated system if an object is detected. It has a wide range of applications in industrial, manufacturing, and process automation.

Working Principle

The TFCDF5ST165BY is a pressure-sensitive device. It has a base plate that is pinned to a wall or other surface. When pressure is applied, the device senses the change in pressure and sends a signal to the connected controller. The controller then activates or deactivates a circuit, which can in turn activate or deactivate a system, activate or deactivate a motor, activate or deactivate a light, or whatever other application is desired.

Overall, the TFCDF5ST165BY is an excellent choice for applications where a reliable and accurate limit switch is needed. It is easy to install, has a high protection rating, and is designed to handle the harsh conditions of industrial and manufacturing environments.
