ZH-02.R01.01 belongs to Snap Action, Limit Switches. A Snap Action/Limit Switch is an electrical switch designed to be opened or closed at predetermined angles limit by an actuating instrument which pivots in some fashion. It is usually electric, with a metal contact, or contacts, that is opened or closed when the actuating instrument is moved to its limit.
ZH-02.R01.01 is a rotary that is used in applications for triggering and switchings of safety relevant manually operated actuators. It has a metal housing, and the arc movement of its actuator is adjustable from 0°-66°. The non-initiated actuator is spring-loaded to the ordered position and mechanically latched into it. Width adjustment is safeguarded so that false positions of the switching elements are avoided, and current ingress or spark formation prevented.
It\'s working principle is relatively simple; when a specific event or sequence is detected, the switch moves from one position to another and triggers the contact. Its most common housing is shaped, with a rotating actuator, wide-standardized and easy to mount, making it an ideal choice for application projects. One of the traits of rotary actuated switches is that they are available in multiple sizes and configurations, allowing them to be adapted to most applications.
The most common applications of ZH-02.R01.01 include: Automation control, production control systems, machine protection, medical devices, Positions detection, and security. With this in mind, it is easy to see the uses of ZH-02.R01.01 are diverse – any application involving the detection, or monitoring of a linear or rotary movement at a certain point.
When it comes to safety and reliability, ZH-02.R01.01 is one of the top choices for applications that require timely motion detection. It is widely used in the automation induestry for detection, actuation and control of most types of motion for industrial applications. It is very easy to use and the simple design eases the installation and assures reliable operation over an extended period of time.
