This range of easy to use limit switches by Eaton offer a variety of compact safety position switches to suit worldwide application.

• Eaton's limit switch has an IP66 protection rating in plastic bodies
• Operating heads can be installed in a choice of 8 positions
• The limit switch is suitable for use with electronic devices
• The switches have maintenance-free and vibration proof cage clamp terminals

A limit switch is made up of an actuator head, switch body and receptacle, and is used to control machinery as part of a control system in many types of industrial applications. Limit switch uses include:
• Escalators
• Food and beverage industry
• Electrical assembly equipment
• Material handling

This limit switch from Eaton is designed to sense the position of an object in industrial applications. As the object makes contact with the plunger on the unit, electrical contacts are opened or closed (depending on the configuration), enabling it to control the machinery. This mechanical switch consumes less electricity and isn't as prone to breakdowns, making it a simple and efficient way to count objects or regulate their limit of travel. You'll find this type of switch on production lines, electrical assembly equipment and escalators.

• IP66 (ingress protection) rating means it's safe for harsh environments
• Choice of eight positions for operating heads for extra flexibility
• Snap-action contacts avoid arcing and false signalling
• Wide operating temperature range of -25°C to +70°C
• Cage clamp connectors are easy to install and maintenance-free

These limit switches can be set as either NO or NC. When used in the normally closed configuration, they can provide a safety function to IEC/EN 60947-5-1 standards.

Plunger-type position switches are best for short, controlled machine movements or applications where there is insufficient mounting space for a lever-type switch.
