Heavy-Duty Limit Switches detect and control the object existence. The switch is an electrical device used to break the circuit. The limit switch is basically a switch that can be driven by another object other than a human trigger. Mechanic limit switch use a physical connection to detect an object, while solid state devices using a proximity sensor, light sensor, or electric switch. It can be used as a controller for normal engine operation or emergency switch.
Heavy-Duty Limit Switches is a device that can be used to solve many problems in packaging, manufacturing, motor control, security, and consumer applications. In these applications, they can be used to detect the presence / absence, position, speed, range of motion, travel limitation, as well as to calculate a separate object or event and break the circle.

Heavy Duty Limit Switches Products
Allen Bradley Heavy-Duty Limit Switches are ideal for applications that require heavy-duty pilot ratings, small size, and high levels of flexibility. Allen Bradley offers a wide range of operating heads and operating levers. There are some products you can choose; some of them are stated bellow:
1. General Purpose Heavy-Duty Limit Switches
This type of Limit Switch is ideal purpose for a wide range of applications. Many places are available, as well as good slow connections and sudden process of contact mechanism. Pick up action limit keys have high strength when the mechanism is snap through required distance of the trip. The feature of this product is suitable for a wide range of applications for 0 ... 40 ° C (32 ... 104 ° F).
2. Corrosion Resistant Heavy-Duty Limit Switches
This type of limit switch is pre-wired and factory sealed to provide corrosion protection in damp or dry places. These keys provide tremendous defense against environmental contaminants using a polymer cage and type 316 stainless steel exposed metal parts. They meet the requirements for NEMA 1, 4X, 6P and 13 cages. The features of this product are submersible, anti-corrosion, and pre-wired and factory sealed.
3. NEMA Style Safety Heavy-Duty Limit Switches
This product is designed for safety applications in ISO 14119. These limit keys have the same mounting dimensions as the NEMA other style limit keys. Rugged metal constructions and components in the body are designed for use in harsh industrial environments. Direct opening procedures ensure that contacts are usually closed when they open a key limit.
4. Factory Sealed Heavy-Duty Limit Switches
This type of limit switch meets the requirements 1, 4, 6P and 13 cages. These transformers are ideal for damp environments and applications to wash down. We offer a wide range of operating heads and operating levers. This product is available with and without rollers
