Limit switch LK-10 W0-59-351012

Limit switch – a reliable element of automation and safety

This LK-10 limit switch, manufactured by Promet, is a solid solution for controlling and monitoring the position of mechanical elements. Made with a metal housing, it provides durability and resistance to mechanical damage. Designed for use in automated drive systems, control, monitoring and measurement circuits for direct and alternating current. Its changeover contact operation makes it versatile in application.

Construction and application

The LK-10 switch is controlled by a drive element – a plunger. The position of the movable contacts and the switching time depend on the force acting on the plunger, allowing for precise detection of the position of the controlled element. This makes it useful in many industries where motion control and machine safety are required. It is ideal for protecting against exceeding permissible ranges of motion, automating processes and signaling the achievement of specific working points.

• Durable construction: Metal housing protects against mechanical damage and environmental influences.
• Versatility: Changeover contact arrangement allows for a wide range of applications in various electrical circuits.
• Precise operation: Plunger ensures accurate detection of the position of the controlled element.
• Application in automation: Ideal for automatic control and safety systems.
• Wide operating temperature range: From -25°C to +40°C allows operation in harsh industrial conditions.
• Protection class IP56: Provides protection against water jets and dust, increasing the reliability of the device in demanding environments.

Operating parameters and compliance with standards

The LK-10 switch is characterized by high technical parameters that guarantee its reliable operation. The rated insulation voltage is 500V, and the rated operating voltage is 500V AC or 220V DC. The continuous current Iu is 16A, and the switching currents Ie for AC-15 are 4A, and for DC-13 – 0.5A. The device also has a gG 16A fuse for protection against the effects of short circuits. It meets the requirements of the PN-EN 60947-5-1 standard, which confirms its safety and compliance with European standards. The mechanical durability is as high as 3 x 10⁶ cycles, which guarantees a long service life even with intensive use.
