GF4C Rotary limit switches

Features

• It consists of a gear motor that transfers movement to the cams and the other movement detection devices through a primary input reduction stage (worm gear and helical toothed gear) and one or more secondary output stages.
• Accurate adjustment of cams by means of screws.
• Positive opening NC contacts for safety functions.
• Mechanical life of switches: up to 1 million operations.
• IP protection degree: GF4C is classified IP 65.
• Extreme temperature resistance: -25°C to +70°C.
• It features transmission and gear driving shafts made of stainless steel, self-lubricating technopolymer gears and driving bushes and sintered bronze bushes moulded into the base of the limit switch to prevent rubbing against plastic material.
• All materials and components used are wear resistant and guarantee protection of the unit against water and dust.

Options

• Revolution ratios from 1:1 to 1:969, achieved by combining different secondary output stages.
• Each of the two outputs can be set to a different revolution ratio to enable diversified control of the machine when special requirements need to be met.
• Snap actions switches with 1NO+1NC contacts or slow action switches with 1NC contact.
• It can be equipped with 2 cam sets (with up to 7 switches), potentiometers and encoders (alone or on top of cam sets with up to 2 switches) and Yankee absolute encoders (on top of cam sets with up to 2 switches).
• Available with flanges, pinion gears and couplings.
