WARNING:
To avoid electrical shock and/or unintended operation of equipment, disconnect all power to the limit
switch and the controlled equipment before proceeding with any repair or adjustment of the limit
switch.
Overview
Limit switches are used in electrical control systems to sense
position. They are actuated by the predetermined motion of a
cam, machine component, or piece part. This mechanical
motion is then converted to an electrical signal through the
actuation of a set of contacts. These signals can be used in
the control circuits of solenoids, control relays, and motor
starters to control the operation of conveyors, hoists,
elevators, machine tools, etc. They are not to be used to
directly control a motor.

Mounting
Units should be mounted using the mounting holes provided.
These mounting holes are located on the sides of the side
mounted limit switches and on the flange of the flange
mounted limit switches. All side mounted limit switches come
with two #6 mounting screw hardware provided. To ensure
proper sealing around the mounting screws, always use the
O-rings and washers provided.
