📋 Core Technical Specifications

📌 Product Features

1. Modular construction: Composed of base housing, contact module, rotary actuator head and adjustable lever. Components can be replaced individually. Part numbers: Base 3SE5112-0CA00, actuator head 3SE5000-0AH00, lever 3SE5000-0AA50, contact block 3SE5000-0CA00
2. Bidirectional reversal: Rotary head can be switched left or right to adapt to forward/reverse stroke triggering of equipment
3. Adjustable lever length, convenient for fine-tuning trigger position on site
4. Impact-resistant metal housing, suitable for machine tools, conveyor lines and automation sites
5. ⚠️ Важное примечание: No positive opening function. NOT permitted for safety protection circuits (например. safety gate interlock). Only for general position detection, travel limit and home position feedback signals.

🛠️ Typical Application Scenarios

Conveyor travel limit, machine tool stroke limit, automation frame position detection, mechanical trigger for silo material level, general position feedback of doors (non-safety interlock)

🔁 Substitute & Справочник по выбору

Same series alternative (different actuator): 3SE5112-0CH01 (fixed-length lever)

Внутренняя альтернативная ссылка: Вкусный, Чинт, Omron WL series roller lever limit switches (verify contact capacity, mounting dimensions and protection rating)

Model for safety applications: 3SE53xx series (positive-opening safety switches)

⚠️ Installation & Примечания по техническому обслуживанию

1. Mounting holes comply with EN50041 standard; reserve buffer stroke for the lever to prevent roller damage from impact
2. Properly seal the M20 cable gland to maintain IP67 protection
3. Snap-action contacts are not suitable for high-frequency low-level signals; intended for power-type switching signals
4. Periodically inspect lever wear and screw tightness; worn rollers allow replacement of actuator assembly alone, full switch replacement unnecessary

1. Jigs & fixtures: Clamp closed/open position feedback
2. Servo slides, cylinder-driven mechanisms: Mechanical end limit and home position confirmation
3. Tooling around robots: Silo baffle and discharge mechanism position detection

Преимущество: 0~100mm adjustable lever length, reversible actuator head for easy on-site fine-tuning of trigger position

1. Material Storage & Silo Applications
2. Silo gates, flap valves: Full-open / full-closed position feedback
3. Warehouse mechanical level detection: Material push plate in-position detection
4. Лифтинг, Дверь & Строительная техника (General Position Signals)
5. Overhead cranes, small hoists: General travel limit for cross/longitudinal carriages (safety ultimate limit must use safety-type switches)
6. Factory motorized sliding doors, roller shutters: Full-open / full-closed position feedback (non-safety interlock)
7. Гидравлический / pneumatic actuators: Cylinder end position detection
8. Other General Industrial Applications

Печать & текстильное оборудование: Roller frame and moving frame stroke detection

Очистка воды & environmental equipment: Baffle and discharge mechanism position signals

General position indication for equipment access doors (⚠️ NOT for safety interlock door switches; safety gates require 3SE53xx positive-opening safety switches)

✅ Selection Checklist (Избежание ловушек)

1. Adjustable metal lever + φ19 plastic roller, suitable for lateral impact from moving stop blocks; long lever preferred where installation space is ample and trigger position fine adjustment is required
2. 1NO+1NC snap-action contacts for PLC DI position signals, AC15/DC13 24V 3A
3. Экологическая пригодность: -25℃~+85℃, IP67, impact-resistant metal housing, ideal for dusty and humid workshops
4. ❌ Forbidden applications: Safety gate interlock, emergency stop safety circuits, ISO13849 safety-related circuits (use 3SE53xx positive-opening safety position switches for these cases)
