Snap Action, Limit Switches – V15T22-E1C200 Application Field and Working Principle

Snap action, limit switches are mechanical on/off switches with snap action, making them a reliable and accurate solution for high speed and high frequency applications. The V15T22-E1C200 is an insulated, rectangular snap action limit switch with a required voltage of 200 volts, an ON/OFF indicator, an adjustable ON/OFF limit setting, and an ON/OFF cycle rating of 20 cycles.

Application Fields

The V15T22-E1C200 snap action limit switch is used in limit control, movement indication and in a variety of high speed, high frequency applications. The switch is well suited for environments subject to dirt, dust, or water, as it is dust tight and comes with an IP67 certification.

The V15T22-E1C200 can be used for machine tools, motors, solar power, construction machinery, elevators, conveyors, HVAC systems, and other automated machine operations. As the switch is compact, it can be easily installed on these machines without taking up too much space.

Working Principle

The V15T22-E1C200 snap action limit switch functions by using a contact system with a lever and a cam to detect the position of a machine. The contact system contains a set of contact points that open and close whenever the cam is moved. When the cam reaches a certain point the contacts open and closes. When the contacts open, the switch is off and when the contacts close, the switch is on. This allows the switch to provide accurate position detection.

The lever is attached to the cam and is responsible for opening and closing the contacts when the cam surfaces overlapping. The switch is actuated when an external force is applied to the lever, causing it to move the cam surface which in turn makes the contacts open and close. This action allows the switch to be used in high speed and high frequency applications.

The V15T22-E1C200 snap action limit switch can be used in a variety of machines, as it has a wide range of ON/OFF limit settings and adjustable ON/OFF cycle ratings that can be adjusted for the application.
