Snap action, limit switches provide precise control for device automation and process control. WLRGCA2-2 is one of the most popular snap action, limit switch family, offering reliable performance and robust design. This article explores the WLRGCA2-2 switch application field and working principle.

Application Field

The application of a WLRGCA2-2 snap action, limit switch is mainly based on two parameters: the temperature range and the environment performance. WLRGCA2-2 is mainly used in Power, Home Appliance, HVAC, Industrial Automation, and other electronic fields.

• Power - WLRGCA2-2 is used in many power applications, such as monitoring battery levels, driving motors, and controlling additional safety devices. It can efficiently isolate power from controlling circuits and offer a secure power supply.
• Home Appliance - WLRGCA2-2 is used to detect temperature in fridge, air conditioners and other home appliance. It can detect the temperature reach the preset level so that the home appliance can be automatically shutdown safely when the temperature reach the preset high level.
• HVAC - WLRGCA2-2 is widely used in heating, ventilation, air conditioning and refrigerator fields. It can measure the temperature precisely and control the comfort level in commercial, residential and industrial environments.
• Industrial Automation - WLRGCA2-2 is used in controlling the production process and monitoring the environmental parameters. It can be connected to the automation system to coordinate the machine operation and process accordingly.

Working Principle

WLRGCA2-2 snap action limit switch works on an actuated mechanism to switch electrical circuits on or off. It features a mechanical actuator that has temperature-sensing capabilities and a temperature operating range. The actuator is mounted on a plunger that when forces, moves the actuator against the temperature responsive material.

The plunger activates a switch that makes or breaks an electrical circuit. This action is known as \'snap action\' because it occurs quickly, typically within a few milliseconds of the temperature being reached. The switch typically has two positions: make and break. When a certain temperature is reached, usually indicated by the actuator, a mechanical force is exerted on the plunger, causing the switch to switch into make or break position.

The internal construction of the WLRGCA2-2 snap action, limit switch contains a metal plate with a temperature-sensitive material on it. This material has a temperature dependent resistance which connects the two switch poles when the temperature is above the preset value. When the temperature falls below the preset value, the switch poles will be disconnected and the switch will reset to its initial position.

The temperature range of the WLRGCA2-2 is typically very wide with a maximum temperature range up to 250°C. It is available in different types, such as non-metallic, panel mount, UL approved and so on. It can be used in numerous applications where safety is a top priority and can be used to monitor processparameters, track machine functions, prevent damage to expensive equipment and ensure industrial production efficiency.

Conclusion

The WLRGCA2-2 snap action, limit switch is one of the most popular and reliable switch family offering precise and reliable functioning. It is mainly used for monitoring battery levels, driving motors, controlling additional safety devices, controlling production process, monitoring environmental parameters and ensuring industrial production efficiency. The temperature range of this switch is up to 250°C and it can be used in many different applications.
