Rockwell Automation has added to
its Allen-Bradley 440P limit switch
family. The 22mm compact metal
440P limit switches offer economical
international-style solutions for both
safety and standard sensing
applications and are suitable for a
variety of applications.
They feature positive openingaction contacts for safety applications and slotted 20 - 25mm mounting holes to allow for various mounting options. The limit switches are also suitable for Category 3 or 4 systems when used with a safety monitoring relay or safety controller.
The expansion of the range consists of 14 new part numbers with a selection of operator types, including dome, roller and cross roller plunger, as well as short lever.
All except the level model, are available with panel mount threading.
Two cable configurations are offered to optimise fit in tight spaces, in bottom cable style and side cable style options.
The 440P limit switch family now comprises four different body styles - 30mm metal, 22mm metal, 22mm plastic and 15mm plastic.
The models also include a broad selection of operator types, circuit arrangements and connection options, which make the range suitable for a wide variety of applications.
