Honeywell MICRO SWITCH limit switches are designed to withstand the toughest of industrial applications.
Honeywell's heavy-duty switches offer a rugged, die-cast body — epoxy-coated — with multiple mounting and actuator options. Low- and high-temp construction and factory- sealed, pre-wired versions are also available. The HDLS Series' modular construction allows for a wide variety of actuator styles, operating heads, and electrical circuitry options. The plug-in versions greatly reduce downtime on production lines with high actuation rates as replacement of the switch is accomplished in seconds. The base receptacle contains all the wiring and conduit connection while the switching component with operating head easily assembles to the base and is attached with two screws.
Applications include food and beverage machinery, shipboard and dockside, caustic waste handling, power generating plants, pulp and paper, welding, automotive machine tools and conveyors.

HoneywellLS and 200LS limit switchesfeature plug-in and non-plug-in body styles. These switches have a long record of successful performance in industrial applications. TheMICRO SWITCH LSfits in many places too small for any other fully adjustable limit switch. TheMICRO SWITCH 200LSswitches are the original plug-in concept for reducing downtime by making changeover simple and fast.MICRO SWITCH SZL-WL Serieslimit switches are cost effective switches that may be used in a wide range of applications from general purpose conveyors to heavy-duty machinery.
Compact Precision Limit Switches
Honeywell'sfeature a small metal or plastic package size. Applications include material handling, printing machinery, machine tools, agricultural equipment, overhead cranes and hoists, packaging and earth-moving, stamping, conveyors, surface transportation and textile, and printing machinery.</strong
MICRO SWITCH E6/V6/E7/V7/E9 Serieslimit switches incorporates the BZ switch element which has the reliable snap-spring mechanism with more than 60 years of proven service. Typical applications include equipment for commercial, industrial, transportation, and agriculture industries. The electrostatic applied epoxy coating to the zinc housings enhance the durability of the product in most environments. The SPDT (Single Pole Double Throw) E7/E7S/V7/E9 Series of catalog listings are certified to CE and CSA for world-wide applications. While the DPDT (Double Pole Double Throw) E7/E7S/V7/E9 Series of catalog listings are certified to CE for many applications.
Honeywell'sBZG/BZH switcheshave a neoprene seal gasket between the housing halves, elastomer boot actuators, sealed conduit connectors, and die cast aluminum housing. Mounting holes are located outside the switch cavity and accept No. 10 screws. A neon pilot light can be added to switches having two conduit openings to indicate contact status.
Miniature Limit Switches
Honeywell miniature limit switchesfeature six switch series - each with unique housing and operational characteristics. Designed for modern industrial OEMs, the miniature and compact package sizes fit in applications where space is limited. The mounting pattern meets most globally accepted mounting standards. These Series offer the user many options including a variety of different actuator and connection styles. Design flexibility is further enhanced with the availability of both slow action and snap action circuitry. Direct acting contacts are designed to open the NC contact when actuated.
Specialty Limit Switches
Honeywell offers a variety of specialty limit switches with unique characteristics for special applications.
The elastomer boot on theBAF1 Seriessealed actuator versions protects the actuating mechanism and the internal basic switch from contaminants. There is a seal gasket between the cover plate and the enclosures on all versions. The cover plate is removed for ease of wiring and switch replacement without demounting the switch.
BF Series plastic enclosed basic switchesare available with a wide variety of operators, and are designed for easy mounting and wiring. BF switches mount utilizing two (2) #6 screws installed through the two diametrically opposite mounting holes in the switch housing (2.312 in x 1.375 in spacing). The BF switches are designed to allow mounting with the cover either towards or away from the mounting surface. Switches with lever type actuators are adjustable in two directions. The entire actuator can be rotated around its mounting bushing, and the angle of the lever can also be changed.
LN switchesare designed to withstand rapid hammer-blow actuation. Impact on the actuating plunger cannot reach the precision switch unit inside. Individual seals around each lead wire and cover plate protect switch cavity from condensate, oil and dust.
OP enclosed switchesare precision snap-action switches sealed in rugged cast aluminum housings. Cover and shaft seals keep out moisture and other contaminants on rotary operated switches. The plungers in the Q-plunger version are not sealed.
