KW8 Small Limit Switch with Short Rod and Roller 16A
Compact limit switch with reversible contact, designed for automation systems, automatic doors, cabinets, and industrial applications. It supports up to 16A at 250V AC, providing precise control through mechanical actuation with a rod and movable roller. A reliable solution for quick integration into equipment and production facilities.
What you get with this product
- Reversible normally closed or open contact — you choose the configuration according to the application, without additional components
- Quick mounting through dedicated holes — stable fixation on metal or plastic surfaces, without special adapters
- Resistance to mechanical wear — the flame-retardant ABS plastic body and metal roller guarantee repeated actuation cycles
- Compatible with AC and DC voltages — works at both 250V AC and 125V DC, ideal for various installations
- Compact dimensions 38x28x10mm — easily integrates into confined spaces, perfect for cabinets, sliding doors, or automatic mechanisms
- 16A capacity — supports medium electrical loads without overheating, suitable for small motors and lighting systems
How it works and how to install it
The limit switch operates by mechanically actuating the rod with the roller: when the roller is pressed, the metal blade moves and changes the state of the electrical contact. Depending on how you connect the terminals, the circuit will open or close upon pressing. Mounting is done by screwing into the holes on the casing, followed by connecting the cables to the tinned terminals. Installation takes less than 10 minutes and does not require specialized tools — just a screwdriver and an optional crimping plier.
Frequently asked questions
Can I also use the limit switch for direct current?
Yes, it supports both AC 250V and DC 125V. For direct current, the capacity decreases to 0.3A.
What do normally closed and normally open contacts mean?
Normally closed means that the circuit conducts current at rest and breaks upon pressing. Normally open means that the circuit is interrupted at rest and conducts current when the rod is pressed. Configuration is done by choosing the terminals for connection.
How durable is the roller?
The 4.6mm metal roller is designed for thousands of actuation cycles. The flame-retardant ABS body protects the internal mechanism against shocks and dust.
