  • This signal can be in the form of a switch closure, a change in voltage, or a digital signal.

Frequently Asked Questions

How can I determine the correct position switch for my application?

The correct position switch for your application will depend on several factors, including the type of moving object or machine component, the environment in which the switch will be used and the electrical & mechanical requirements of the system.

Can these position switches be connected to PLC?

Yes, position switches can be connected to a programmable logic controller (PLC) to provide an input signal for controlling other equipment or sending an alarm.

What is the difference between a normally open and a normally closed position switch?

A normally open position switch is one that is open (not making contact) when the moving object or machine component is in a certain position. A normally closed position switch is one that is closed (making contact) when the moving object or machine component is in a certain position.

What is the difference between a single-pole and a double-pole position switch?

A single-pole position switch has one set of contacts, while a double-pole position switch has two sets of contacts.

Can position switches be used for monitoring the level of a liquid?

Yes, position switches can be used to monitor the level of a liquid by installing them on a float switch or a level sensor. These devices float on the surface of the liquid and send an electrical signal when the level of the liquid reaches a certain point.
