TERMINATION
Termination is specified in the order
guides. Leadwires are generally six feet
long, and of the gage and Military Specifi-
cations noted in the order guides.
MOUNTING
Plunger actuator switches mount through
5
⁄
8
inch or
15
⁄
32
inch diameter holes. Lock
washer, keyed washer, and wire lock hex-
agon mounting nuts lock the switches in
their mounting holes.
Rotary actuator switches mount through
15/32 inch diameter holes. A lock washer
wire lock hexagon nut and locating pins
on the top of the housing prevent switch
rotation.
OPERATION
Plunger Actuators
For in-line actuation. An ice scraper ring
cleans the actuator with each operation.
Roller Plunger Actuators
For cam and slide actuation not to exceed
20° rise. Roller adjusts laterally in 45° in-
crements. An ice scraper ring cleans the
actuator with each operation.
EN Series
Rotary Roller Lever Actuator
For cam and slide actuation with more
than a 30° rise. A spring returned mecha-
nism, this actuator is available in clock-
wise and counterclockwise operation de-
signs. The actuator adjusts laterally to
any position through 360°. The roller is
laminated phenolic.
Ball Bearing Plunger Actuator
For random direction operation. An ice
scraper ring cleans the actuator with each
operation. For further information, con-
tact your nearest MICRO SWITCH Sales
Office.
Rotary Linkage Lever Actuator
A threaded rod attaches to the rotary lever
for positive actuation. The rotary lever op-
erates in either direction and adjusts lat-
erally to any position through 360°. The
threaded rod pivots in two planes. The ac-
tuator has no spring return, but is con-
trolled directly by the movement of the ac-
tuating device.
