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 position (or limit) switch from Eaton uses a plunger actuator to mechanically sense the position of an object. It's ideal for industrial applications where correct positioning is vital, such as production lines or assembly equipment. The plunger switch depresses as the object makes contact with it. This opens or closes the electrical contacts to allow automated control of machinery. The mechanical method of automation uses less electricity and isn't as prone to failure, so it's a reliable and efficient way to control the limit of travel of manufactured objects.

• IP66/67 (ingress protection) ratings mean it's suitable for challenging environments
• Eight possible positions for operating heads means extra versatility
• Snap-action contacts help prevent arcing or false signalling
• Wide operating temperature range of -25°C to +70°C
• Easy to install, maintenance-free cage clamp

Limit switches use mechanical actuators to perform functions like count moving objects, control a limit of travel or open or close a circuit in the presence or absence of an object. Because they depend on mechanical actuation – physical contact – it's less breakable and more energy-efficient way to automate your system.
