    Build-Your-Own Limit Switches

    Combine an actuator and a switch to assemble the exact limit switch you need. These switches have the rapid-closing action of a snap-acting switch, but have a larger actuator for large objects. When an object in motion comes into contact with the actuator, it sends a signal to open or close a circuit. They’re often used for conveyor systems and elevators. Each actuator style is compatible with all housing styles and vice versa.

    Polypropylene Housing—Switches with a polypropylene housing are lighter in weight than metal switches.
    Zinc Housing—Switches with a zinc alloy housing are more durable than those with a plastic housing.
    LED Power Indicator and LED Status Indicator—Switches with an LED power indicator and LED status indicator show you the status of the line and load phases. They give you extra assurance that your switch is connected and wired correctly.
    4-Pole M12 Connection—Switches with a 4-pole M12 plug quickly connect and disconnect from your setup. Use cords (sold separately) to wire your switch connection to your setup.
    IP66 Enclosure Rating—IP66 switches protect against dust and washdowns.
    IP67 Enclosure Rating—IP67 switches protect against dust and temporary submersion.
