New Safety Limit Switches Available With Plastic Or Die-Cast Housings

Fremont, CA - Scientific Technologies, Inc. introduces the SL (Safety Limit) Series interlock switch. The SL Series offers a large selection of actuator configurations with either plastic or die-cast housings to satisfy most application requirements. A rotatable head provides four actuator mounting positions for versatile installation. A NEMA 4 enclosure allows these switches to withstand water washdown cleaning.

Additionally, contact configurations are available ranging from two to four sets of contacts with snap action, break before make, and make before break operating versions. All contacts are force guided for positive operation by the actuator, and all models are engineered to provide long life with a minimum of one million actuations.
