    3 - Limit and Reed Switches

    Uploaded by

    Azliana Mohd Taib
    Limit switches are contact sensors that require actuation to provide a signal output. They have a switching capacity of 24V DC at 6A, accuracy of 0.01-0.1mm, and can operate at frequencies up to 400 operations per minute. Limit switches have a service life of 10 million switching cycles and protection class of IP00 to IP67. Magnetic proximity switches, also called reed switches, react to magnetic fields and have glass tubes filled with inert gas containing ferromagnetic contact blades. When a magnetic field approaches, the blades are drawn together to make electrical contact.

    They React to the Magnetic Fields of
    Permanent
    Magnets

    Electromagnets.
    Contact
    Blades
    are
    made
    of
    Ferromagnetic Material (Fe-Ni Alloy,
    Fe=iron, Ni=nickel) Sealed in a Small
    Glass Tube.
    The Tube is Filled with an Inert Gas i.e.
    Nitrogen (Inert Gas Means a NonActive, Non-Combustible Gas). SP1125 -

    If a Magnetic Field Approaches the Reed


    Proximity Sensor, the Blades are Drawn
    Together by Magnetism, and an Electrical
    Contact is Made.
