Honeywell BZE6 Series Limit Switch, 250V Switching DC Voltage, Die Cast Zinc Housing - BZE6-2RQ8
This limit switch provides a Compact electromechanical detection solution for industrial control and automation tasks, using a plunger actuator to register mechanical movement and send a switching signal. It is intended for side-mounted installations in machinery and control panels where a quick-response switching element with snap action is required.
Features and Benefits:
• Snap-action contact for fast, decisive switching
• SPDT contact arrangement for single-circuit changeover capability
• Rated switching voltage supports 250V DC applications
• Die-cast zinc housing offers enhanced mechanical robustness
• Operating force of 3.61N ensures consistent actuation response
• Meets multiple international standards for broad specification compliance
• SPDT contact arrangement for single-circuit changeover capability
• Rated switching voltage supports 250V DC applications
• Die-cast zinc housing offers enhanced mechanical robustness
