WLG12-TC

Snap action, limit switches are engineered electro-mechanical devices used to control electric circuits by providing a consistent interface between electric and physical components. The WLG12-TC is a two-pole snap action limit switch, designed for use in automation and industrial applications where dependability and reliability are important. It is ideal for applications such as machine tools, hazardous area extinguishing systems, HVAC systems, and motor control.

The WLG12-TC is designed to offer superior performance, even in the harshest conditions. It features a metal contact, which ensures high performance, contact reliability and resistance to wear. The durable construction and metal casing ensures superior heat and shock resistance. It also has a range of optional accessories provide maximum versatility, including a variety of termination types, a wide range of contact rated currents and voltages and a range of mounting instructions.

The WLG12-TC is based on the principle of the snap action or "limit switch" mechanism. It uses a spring loaded device to switch between two states: "open" and "closed". The device is triggered when the actuator is pressed or raised, breaking the contacts and sending an electrical signal to the circuit. The switch is designed to snap back in to its original position, recovering from the action and resetting itself to resume normal operation.

The WLG12-TC is designed for safety and reliability and has a wide range of electrical and mechanical features to ensure a long operational life. It features an IP 67 rating for dust and water resistance, and an operating temperature of -25˚C to 70˚C. It accepts wires of up to 1mm diameter, provides a shock resistant contact rating of 30mΩ and a dielectric strength rating of 1000V AC/60secs.

In terms of construction, the WLG12-TC is made from a polycarbonate base and actuator and uses silver/nickel alloy contacts. It is rated up to 16A/250VAC and meets UL, CUL and TUV safety standards.

The WLG12-TC is an advanced and reliable limit switch, suitable for use in a variety of industrial and automation applications. Offering superior performance in the toughest environments, it provides an ideal solution for controlling electrical circuits in a reliable and safe way.
