General General information on mechanical multiple limit switches Use EUCHNER precision multiple limit switches are used for controlling and positioning in all areas of mechanical and systems engineering and for solving automation tasks. Exterior diaphragm A series with an exterior diaphragm which is designed to resist the effect of resinous cooling lubricants is also available. The exterior diaphragm provides additional sealing of the plunger outside the housing. The plunger guides in the housing are thus reliably protected from the penetration of the cooling lubricant. Plunger sticking is prevented...

General Travel ratio for plunger/trip dog Switching elements All the plunger travel data shown in the technical data refers to axial actuation. When using our trip dogs in accordance with DIN 69639, this travel is doubled at the trip rail. Snap-action switching element Snap-action switching elements are predominantly used in mechanical multiple limit switches. On snap-action switching elements, the change from the completely closed state to the completely open state is made at a defined point (operating point). As a result the operating point is at a defined position unlike on slow-action contact...

General General information on inductive multiple limit switches Inductive multiple limit switches are used for positioning and control in all areas of mechanical and systems engineering. Inductive multiple limit switches are used for automation tasks in machines for the wood, textile and plastics industry, as well as for area monitoring for robotics. NO + NC function The NO + NC function incorporates both an NO function and an NC function. Associated circuit diagrams and wiring diagrams are given in the technical data. Due to their non-contact and thus wear-free principle of operation, inductive...

General EUCHNER General information on trip rails/trip dogs EUCHNER trip rails and trip dogs are successfully used in conjunction with EUCHNER multiple limit switches in all areas of mechanical and systems engineering and for solving automation tasks. They are needed wherever travel-dependent positioning of various work steps is required. The particular advantages of the EUCHNER combination include: ► Very high accuracy (to 0.002 mm). ► Long mechanical life (low mechanical wear and resistant to corrosion due to selected materials). ► Easy to use (user-friendly fastening and adjustment using refined precision...
