EA700-56700

Product Description:

Danaher manufactures the EA700-56700. A precisely manufactured electromechanical device, the Danaher EA700-56700 Snaplock Limit Switch is designed to operate with great dependability in industrial settings. Zinc, a metal known for its high density and advantageous tensile properties, is used to make its exterior housing, providing a mechanically robust casing. In environments where structural integrity is crucial, such as high-vibration and impact-prone environments, this construction option is very beneficial. In addition to providing a mechanical barrier, the zinc shell acts as a barrier against dust, moisture, and particulate matter, among other environmental pollutants. The housing is essential to preserving the long-term operational integrity of the internal switching parts, which are often vulnerable to mechanical deterioration and environmental stresses, by preventing the entry of these potentially harmful components.

A torque requirement that is properly calibrated at 33 inch-pounds lies at the core of the switch's actuation mechanism, guaranteeing responsive and intentional mechanical engagement. The threshold rotational force needed to move the actuation lever and activate the internal contact mechanisms is defined by this value. By transforming applied force into rotational motion, torque plays a crucial role in mechanical systems and directly controls the switch's capacity to operate under dynamic loading situations. By designing such a precise torque profile, automated systems can reduce the possibility of erroneous activation or non-actuation and guarantee consistent switch responsiveness. This metric is crucial in applications where system throughput is directly impacted by mechanical dependability, particularly in automated safety interlocks or coordinated robotic systems where exact mechanical reaction times are unavoidable.

Deployment across a range of industrial temperature settings is made possible by the EA700-56700's ability to endure operating extremes and function within a thermal envelope that spans from -20°C to +90°C. All of the component materials—from the internal conductive and dielectric components to the metallic housing—must retain their structural and functional stability across a range of thermal stresses in order to meet this wide temperature tolerance. While the switch must withstand softening, dielectric breakdown, or thermal wear of conducting parts at high temperatures, it must also withstand material embrittlement and preserve actuator fluidity at sub-zero temperatures. The switch's electrical performance is characterized by tiered continuous current ratings at numerous voltage levels, which enable 20A at 125V AC down to 5A at 600V AC. This complements the switch's mechanical and thermal resistance. These ratings show how well the switch can manage a continuous electrical load without going above the internal contacts' temperature limitations, guaranteeing steady and secure functioning in power-distribution situations. The flexibility and resilience of the EA700-56700 in high-performance industrial automation systems are highlighted by its electrical and mechanical diversity as well as its adjustable mounting options.
