Square D 9007C54B2 heavy duty limit switch is designed to control the motion of machinery and equipment by activating or deactivating a circuit when a physical limit is reached. It ensures the safe operation of machinery and prevents damage caused by overtravel or other mechanical issues.
Working Mechanism:
- Square D 9007C54B2 limit switch is mounted in a strategic position on machinery or equipment so that its actuator can come into contact with a moving part.
- As the machinery or equipment operates, the moving part comes in contact with the limit switch actuator of the limit switch.
- When the actuator is pushed or moved by the machinery's motion, it triggers the internal mechanism of the limit switch.
- This mechanism can be set to activate either when the moving part reaches a specific position or when it moves beyond a certain point.
- The internal mechanism's activation causes the limit switch to change its electrical state.
- It can either open (break the circuit) or close (complete the circuit) based on the configuration.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. What are the limit switch types?
A. There are various types like lever-arm, roller-plunger, rotary and proximity limit switches. They have different actuator styles and are used based on specific needs.
Q. How is this limit switch installed?
A. Square D limit switch is mounted near moving parts. The actuator is positioned so that when the moving part reaches a certain position, it triggers the switch.
Q. Can limit switches be adjusted?
A. Yes, you can adjust the limit switches' position, enabling customisation to suit different machinery and applications.
Q. What material is the body of this limit switch made of?
A. This limit switch has a zinc body. However, if you require a similar limit switch with an aluminium body, you can check out the brand's 9007CR53B2 limit switch.
