WL01D2

Snap Action, Limit Switches

A snap action, limit switch is an electrical switch that opens or closes its internal circuit at a specific time during the operation of an electrical system. Generally speaking, the limit switch is used to mechanically and electrically monitor the position of an actuator. When the position of the actuator reaches a certain limit, the limit switch will open or close the internal circuit, and the application system can receive the electrical signal from the switch to adjust the operation of the actuator.

The WL01D2 is a snap action, limit switch. Its primary purpose is to open or close an internal electrical connection based on the position of an external machine component, such as a lever handle, a pivoting arm, or a rotary knob. The WL01D2 utilizes a plunger-type mechanism, where an external machine component is attached to the end of one or more internal levers. This lever mechanism is connected to a spring, which causes the internal electrical connection to be opened or closed when the lever is actuated.

The WL01D2 is most commonly used in applications that involve mechanical automation, such as automated door openers and safety bank card reactors. It can also be used in applications that require contact monitoring, such as digital input/output devices. In these applications, the WL01D2 senses the presence or absence of an object, such as a finger, and sends out an electrical signal accordingly. It is capable of providing both normally closed (NC) and normally open (NO) contacts, to allow for more complex control applications.

The WL01D2 is a highly reliable and durable switch, with a long lifespan and low failure rate. It has a high tolerance for vibration and shock and is rated IP65 for dust and water resistance. The switch is offered in a wide variety of sizes and actuator configurations, to ensure it is a suitable option for any application requiring electrical contact monitoring. The WL01D2 also features a wide operating temperature range, from -30°C to 90°C, making it suitable for a variety of applications.

The WL01D2 is an ideal choice for applications requiring reliable and durable contact monitoring and activation. With its robust construction and wide operating temperature range, the WL01D2 is suitable for almost any application requiring a limit switch. Additionally, it is capable of providing normally closed and normally open contacts, offering more complex control options. All these features make the WL01D2 an excellent choice for any application that requires an electrical switch to detect and activate a mechanical system.
