VL (AZ8) Series Limit Switches
Compact Size Limit Switch
Key features
- Compact design approximately 1/3 of the AZ5 limit switches
- Au-clad contacts that can even use low level circuit and little chattering and bouncing The built-in switch has Au-clad contacts with excellent contact reliability and uses a crossbar contact method, and moreover, has a dual cutoff circuit (1 Form A 1 Form B contact) with little chattering and bouncing due to computer-operated analysis.
- Easy wiring with full-open terminals When the cover is removed, the terminals are open as far as the flank, so the necessity to insert your fingers into a case to complete the wiring has been removed. Moreover, the wiring space is large despite the compact size, and the terminals are spread in a tiered array, so that wiring work can be completed very easily. The cable can either be screwed in directly, or can use U-shaped and circular pressure terminals.
- Mounting are possible to both front and back
- Type with a lamp that can be used with a wide range of voltages • With neon lamp Compatible with: 100 and 200V AC ; Even at 100V AC, sufficient luminosity is achieved through the diamond-cut lens. Also with a long lifespan of more than 20 thousand hours. • With LED lamp Covers 6 to 48V DC and comes in three types, 6V DC , 12V DC , 24 to 48V DC. Uses two highly luminescent LEDs and in addition, sufficient luminosity is achieved through the diamond-cut lens.
- Lamp connection can be either spring type or lead wire type • Spring type (wiring unnecessary) (With neon or LED lamp type) Wiring is unnecessary because the lamp is directly connected to the terminals. By simply changing the direction of the lamp holder attachment, it is possible to display both lights during inoperability and during operation (however, if both N.O. and N.C. loads are connected, only the inoperability lamp can be displayed.)
- Construction permits lamp attachment method to be changed. • Lead wiring type
(LED lamp type only) Because the wiring can be made parallel to the load, current leakage from the lamp can be reduced to 0. Even with a slight leak, the electronic circuit incurring the leak can be used safely. - Dust-proof, waterproof, oil resistant construction The main unit and the cover are sealed with rubber packing, and the cord runner is doubly sealed by the cord vent. The actuator is sealed by both a rubber cap and an O ring in all models. Also, the lens and cover are formed simultaneously with the lamp type, and moreover, a nameplate is affixed to the upper surface, thereby improving the already excellent waterproof capabilities. (Note: Applications directly involving the cord entrance and the locations which are always wet and oily, or submersion in water or oil, cannot be used.)
Typical applications
Ideal for general plant facilities such as engineering machinery, conveyer machinery, and assembly lines LED lamp type is also compatible with low-voltage DC control circuits such as in PCs and computers.
