item Automation Accessories and Limit Switches
Limit switches and limit switch sets for item linear units, plus a slide plate and face spanner as accessories for the item Automation System.
Reliable end position detection
Limit switches tell the controller that a slide has reached its end position and protect the axis from overtravel. They are also used for homing runs. This category contains limit switches and accessories matched to the linear units of the item Automation System.
Components and selection
- Limit switch sets: for various item linear units (e.g. LRE, KRF, KGT), each as normally open (NO) or normally closed (NC).
- Individual limit switches: limit switch M8, limit switch 8 with NO contact and limit switch for KLE 6 60x60 with NC contact.
- Slide plate 6 60 190x60: for mounting attachments on the slide.
- Face spanner: tool for adjusting components of series 5 and 8.
Whether NC or NO makes sense depends on the control logic. NC contacts are often used for safety-related shutdowns, because a broken cable is then detected like a triggered switch.
