Limit switch (metal / plastic) spring lever LK\167

Limit switch LK\167 is a reliable device used for precise position detection and control of electrical circuits. The design combines the durability of a metal housing with the practicality of plastic, ensuring resistance to harsh industrial conditions. This double-pole limit switch, equipped with a snap-action contact, finds application in a wide range of applications – from industrial automation to safety systems.

Features and application

This switch is characterized by its compact dimensions (29 x 64 x 26.9 mm) and IP65 protection rating, which guarantees its dust and water tightness. Designed to operate at temperatures from -10 to 70°C, it will perform well even in demanding environments. Made of metal and plastic, it offers good mechanical durability and resistance to damage. Thanks to the PG cable gland, installation and electrical connection are simple and convenient.

The device is particularly useful where precision and reliability are required, e.g. in automatically controlled machines and equipment, transport systems or production lines. Its versatility allows it to be used in both new and modernized installations.

User parameters and construction

The LK\167 switch has two switching contacts – one normally open and one normally closed – allowing for flexible configuration of control circuits. The rated operating current is 5A for AC-15 at 24V and 0.2A for DC-13 at 230V. The rated current for DC-13 at 125V is 0.4A and for AC-15 at 125V and 230V – also 5A. The actuating element is a spring-loaded rod, ensuring reliable operation of the switching mechanism.

The construction of the switch is based on a stable arrangement of movable contacts, which automatically return to the initial position after the force acting on the pusher is released – this ensures safety and reliability of operation. The built-in spring mechanism increases the mechanical durability of the device and ensures smooth operation for a long time. Mounting holes facilitate cable installation, and the compact size allows for installation in tight spaces.
