WLGCA2-TH-N

Snap action, limit switches, when properly installed, provide reliable operation and long life in a wide range of applications. WLGCA2-TH-N is a type of snap action, limit switch. It has a high level of protection against accidental operation, up to IP65, and is suitable for use in many harsh environments.

To understand the working principle of WLGCA2-TH-N, it is helpful to know that snap action, limit switches come under the "push-pull" classification of switchers. When the contact arm is pushed or pulled, the switch will move along wires that are connected internally such that it changes the state of the switch. The WLGCA2-TH-N can be configured either to be a maintained contact switch or an arced contact switch, depending on the application.

The WLGCA2-TH-N features a snap-acting mechanism with a positive break-open design to ensure a reliable switch action at all times. That is, no matter how many times the switch is operated, it will always return to its original position. The switch is also protected from the effects of over-travel, with a rating of 8A at 250V AC.

The switch\'s body and actuator are durable, having been built with materials like glass-filled nylon plus other thermoplastics that are resistant to mechanical shock, abrasion, and corrosive chemicals. Additionally, the highly visible indicator light provides an easy way to monitor the status of the switch.

WLGCA2-TH-N can be used in a variety of applications, ranging from controlling a motor in a process control system to signaling when a door or window is opened. It is also used in measuring the level of liquid in water tanks and industrial machinery, where it complements other devices like level transmitters or pressure switches. The switch can be used in numerous industries, such as food and beverage, pharmaceutical, and manufacturing.

Overall, WLGCA2-TH-N is an ideal choice for when reliable, long-lasting operation is needed in difficult environments. Its robust construction, positive break-open design, and ability to be configured in different ways make it a great option for a variety of applications.
