Z-15GQ-B plunger limit switch

Piston type limit switch is a widely used control device in mechanical equipment. Its main function is to trigger the switch to achieve start stop or direction change control when the mechanical motion reaches a specific position.

Piston type limit switch is a widely used control device in mechanical equipment. Its main function is to trigger the switch to achieve start stop or direction change control when the mechanical motion reaches a specific position. Here is a detailed product introduction:

1、 Product Overview

The plunger type limit switch consists of three parts: limit mechanism, plunger mechanism, and contact mechanism. Its working principle is simple and reliable. When the mechanical motion platform approaches or reaches the limit position, the machine base containing the plunger moves in the direction of mechanical motion. The handle on the plunger is lifted to the position of the limit contact, and the handle is rotated by squeezing the spring, thereby pressing the contact of the contact mechanism and achieving switch action.

2、 Product Features

1. Rapid response: The mechanical motion is triggered immediately after reaching the limit, which can detect the endpoint position in a timely manner and avoid equipment damage caused by overtravel motion.

2. Simple design: The structure is simple, easy to maintain, and reduces labor costs.

3. High reliability: The limit mechanism adopts spring reset, which is not prone to misoperation even under external impact or mechanical vibration.

4. Wide applicability: Suitable for various working environments, it can maintain the stability and accuracy of the switch even in harsh environments.

5. Good sealing performance: Some products have high sealing and hardness, using O-ring sealing and integral diaphragm sealing, oil resistant and immersion proof (JIS), reaching IP67 (IEC) protection level.

6. Strong durability: For example, the mechanical life of the Azbil Japan Yamabu SL1-B limit switch can reach 20 million cycles, and the electrical life is also over 300000 cycles, ensuring long-term stability and reliability.

3、 Application Fields

Piston type limit switches are widely used in automation equipment such as machine tools, scroll machines, conveyor belts, palletizers, robots, etc. due to their advantages. For example, in a palletizer, limit switches can detect the movement position of the robotic arm and automatically stop based on the set endpoint position, ensuring the accuracy and safety of palletizing.

4、 Precautions

During installation and use, it is necessary to strictly follow the product manual to ensure the accuracy and consistency of the installation position.

2. Pay attention to regular inspection and maintenance to ensure the sensitivity and reliability of the switch.

3. For special working environments (such as explosive gas environments), limit switches with corresponding explosion-proof levels should be selected to ensure safe use.

In summary, the plunger type limit switch is one of the control devices in mechanical equipment, and its excellent performance and wide application fields make it occupy an important position in the market.
