These switches actuate with the slightest push for a high degree of accuracy. They’re often used for determining manufacturing tolerances and detecting minute expansions and contractions.

Sealed actuators prevent these switches from jamming, even when exposed to oil, sand, mud, or ice. They send a signal to your circuit when an object hits the actuator—for instance, a box on a conveyor runs into the switch, stopping the conveyor. They open and close circuits as fast as snap-acting switches, but they have a bigger actuator for large objects. To actuate, they require a push, similar to a button. Rated IP68, they’re protected against dust and temporary submersion.

Switches with a stainless steel housing stand up better to wear and tear and corrosion better than switches with a zinc-plated steel housing.

Secure these switches into panels using mounting nuts. They have a slim body so they can also be stacked together or fit into tight spaces. They're rated IP67 for protection from temporary submersion. 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 on conveyor systems and elevators. All have a 4-pole micro M12 plug that connects to cables with a socket (sold separately), allowing you to quickly connect and disconnect the switch.
