Limit Switch Contact Assemblies Models S / M / I / E / P

Download:*

Limit switch contact assemblies are used for "making" (closing) or "breaking" (interrupting) electrical or pneumatic circuits in response to the position of the pointer of the measuring instrument, i.e. pressure gauges or thermometers.
We have mechanical contacts (i.e. standard contacts, model S, and magnetic contacts, model M), inductive limit switches (model I), electronic limit switches (model E) and pneumatic limit switches (model P) in our supply programme.
For pressure gauges with reed-switches, see  heading1, model RCha 63,
resp. data sheet 1219.4.pdf (German) and  1219.4-eng.pdf (English), and heading 1, model RSCh 63, resp. data sheet 1619-4.pdf (German) and 1619-4-eng.pdf (English).
 

Models

S
M
Standard contacts (= sliding contacts, our model S) and magnetic contacts (M) are mechanical limit contacts for switching a nominal operation voltage of up to max. 250 V (AC or DC) and a breaking capacity of up to 10 W / 18 VA (model S) respectively 30 W / 50 VA (model M). Depending on the model and size of the measuring instrument, single, double, threefold or fourfold contacts are available,  compare data sheets with end number ...90, ...91 or ..19.. of the pressure gauges.


Applications:


      Model S:


 
for small breaking capacities

for shock and vibration free applications only


      Model M:



suits for numerous kinds of conditions,
also when vibrations occur

for higher breaking capacities

Rated Voltage

up to 250 V (AC or DC)
Breaking Capacity up to 10 W or 18 VA (model S) or
up to 30 W or 50 VA (model M;
at filled instruments max. 20 W / 20 VA)

Model

I Inductive limit switches with slot initiators are proximity switches in two-wire technique according to DIN60947-5-6 resp. NAMUR. They are intrinsically safe, EEx ib IIC T6 classified and approved for applications in potentially explosion hazardous locations zone 1 and 2 by using an appropriate relay unit. Depending on the model and size of the measuring instrument, single, double or threefold limit switches are available (compare data sheets with end number ...90, ...91 or ..19.. of the pressure gauges.), and fourfold limit switches upon request.


Applications:



These proximity switches with high switching  precision and long service life suit for almost any kind of industrial application

also for filled measuring instruments

also for temporary explosion hazardous atmospheres by using the appropriate relay unit

Model

P Pneumatic limit switches model P are provided with pneumatic slot proximity switches applying the air-flow interrupting principle. A preamplifier transfers the low pressure signal into a standard signal of 1.4 bar (P/P converter) resp. an electronic signal (P/E converter). Pneumatic limit switches are suitable for potentially explosion hazardous locations zone 0. They show a high switching precision and are relatively resistant against vibration, but because of their working principle they cannot be used for liquid filled instruments. Single and double switches are part of our supply program, but only for instruments with nominal case sizes 100 (4"), 160 (6"), 96x96 (3.78"X3.78") or 144x144 (5.67"X5.67"),  compare data sheets with end number ...90, ...91 or ..19.. of the pressure gauges.


Applications:



for air-flow using facilities

for applications where no electric current is allowed or available

for applications at locations with the highest classification of explosion hazard (zone 0)
Operating Air Pressure
(Auxiliary Energy):

1.4 bar +/- 0.1 
(20 psi +/- 2.8 psi)

Admission Pressure

approx. 0.1 bar

Output Pressure

approx 40 mbar

Air Consumption

resp. PP converter 40 Nl/h
