WLGCA2-141-N 5M

WLGCA2-141-N 5M is a kind of Snap Action, Limit Switches. Snap action of this kind of Limit Switch ensures reliability and long-term use. It uses electromechanical mechanisms activated by an actuator and is used to detect the presence or absence of an object. When the actuator plunger is mechanically pressed, the contacts will connect or disconnect depending on the configuration.

The applications of WLGCA2-141-N 5M include, but are not limited to, various automatic machines where repeatable and reliable actuation is needed. Its operating principle is suitable for industrial control, temperature control, flow control, etc. Additionally, it has a power rating of 20A/250VAC and 10A/125VAC, respectively. This feature makes it suitable to use in motor control applications that involve converting electrical signals into mechanical actions.

In terms of its working principle, the WLGCA2-141-N 5M limit switch can operate in such a way that when the actuator is pressed, the contacts inside the switch open or close. This is known as the closed loop control, which is utilized in order to provide a consistent and reliable control action. The actuator is usually either a plunger or a lever arm. The plunger has a spring loaded pin which forces the contacts to open or close when the actuator is mechanically pressed. The lever arm has a pin which opens or closes the contacts depending on the direction of the force applied.

In addition to its closed loop operational principle, the WLGCA2-141-N 5M limit switch also has an adjustable angle. This adjustable angle ensures that the switch is always at a given angle against the actuator when it is activated. This ensures that the contacts remain sealed during operation, thus maintaining a reliable and repeatable action. This is also beneficial in situations where there is a need to adjust the switch in order to adjust its operating range.

The applications of WLGCA2-141-N 5M limit switch include the usage in machine guarding, material handling, detection and protection. Furthermore, it is suitable for low- and medium-voltage machine tools and construction machinery. In terms of protection, the switch can be used to detect any type of over-current or motor overload as well as preventing fires from occurring due to over-heating or sparking.

In conclusion, the WLGCA2-141-N 5M limit switch is a reliable and flexible solution for industrial control, temperature control and flow control. Its adjustable angle and closed loop control mechanism ensure a consistent and repeatable action. Its power rating makes it suitable for motor control applications that involve the conversion of electrical signals into mechanical actions. Additionally, its various applications ensure that it can be used safely in various working environments.
