Limit switches with a plunger plus roller actuator activate when an object depresses the plunger; the roller is useful for contour following or to allow objects to pass easily. They are available in types ranging from micro-sized to heavy-duty IEC and NEMA-rated switches.
Limit Switches with a Plunger Plus Roller Style Actuator
Category Selection
Limit switches with a plunger plus roller-style actuator contain electromechanical switches that are open/closed when an object depresses the metal plunger. The roller attached to the plunger, available in metal, plastic, or nylon, is typically used for contour following and allows objects to pass freely. These limit switches are available in a variety of styles and sizes, ranging from economical micro switches to rugged heavy-duty IEC and NEMA-rated devices.
