V-15-1C26

Snap action, limit switches are widely used for a variety of applications. They offer an easy-to-use, self-contained mechanism that provides repeatable, reliable switching. The V-15-1C26 is a popular limit switch style from Honeywell. This article outlines the applications and the operating principles of the V-15-1C26.

Applications

The V-15-1C26 is a plunger type limit switch, which makes it suitable for a wide range of applications. It is typically used in industrial applications, such as detecting the position of moving parts, materials, or objects. It may be used in any application where precise switching action is required.

The V-15-1C26 is commonly found in conveyor systems, such as those used in assembly lines. It is used to detect when parts reach a certain position on the line. It is also used in hoists and lifts, to detect when a load is at a certain level. It can be used to detect the presence of materials, such as in metal detectors. Other common applications include packaging machines, door interlocks, and other machines requiring precise switching.

Operating Principles

The V-15-1C26 is a snap action, limit switch, meaning that it provides a quick, reliable operation. When the plunger is depressed, it triggers the switch to move from one state to another. This is referred to as "snap action". The switch can be set to either a normally open or normally closed position. When the plunger is depressed, the switch will move to the opposite position.

The V-15-1C26 is designed to provide reliable and repeatable switching action. It uses a coil spring to reset the switch after it has been triggered. The plunger is designed to return to its original position after the switch is triggered, so the switching action is both reliable and consistent.

In addition to its reliable operation, the V-15-1C26 is designed to be tolerant of vibration, which makes it ideal for use in industrial environments. It is also rated for up to 5 million cycles, making it suitable for long-term applications.

Conclusion

The V-15-1C26 is a reliable, snap action, limit switch that is suitable for a wide range of applications. It is designed to be reliable, consistent, and tolerant of vibration, making it an ideal choice for industrial applications. It is easy to use and can be used in any application where precise switching action is required.
