Rotary Limit Switches
Start or stop equipment after a set number of rotations to avoid over-rotation. For example, if attached to a crane spool, these switches will stop winding or unwinding cable after a certain number of rotations, preventing damage to equipment. Use their shaft to attach them to rotational equipment. They open and close circuits as fast as snap-acting switches.
Gear speed ratio determines when these switches actuate. A gear speed ratio of 5:1 means they actuate after 5 rotations.
