Operation

The Z-15GW255-B6-106-K utilizes a snap-action bimetallic contact. The contact consists of two metal discs with different thermal expansion coefficients, placed adjacent to one another. When the system temperature changes, the metal discs will expand or contract at different rates. This differential thermal expansion causes the contact to either open or close depending on the temperature. The snap action of the contact ensures that the contact opens or closes with a quick and definitive action, allowing for accurate and reliable switching.

The contact can be actuated by a variety of inputs including temperature, pressure, liquid levels, and physical displacement. The Z-15GW255-B6-106-K can also be equipped with an auxiliary contact which can be used to monitor the state of the contact.

Benefits

The Z-15GW255-B6-106-K offers several benefits for its users. The switch is designed for heavy-duty applications and has a durable stainless steel construction for durability and long life. It is also resistant to oil, water, dust, and corrosive gases, making it suitable for a variety of environments. Additionally, its snap-action contact ensures that it is accurate and reliable.

The Z-15GW255-B6-106-K is a versatile, reliable, and cost-effective limit switch that provides a high level of performance and long service life. It is suitable for use in a variety of applications, including medical, automotive, and industrial settings.
