LX918 Marine limit switch Series

LX918 series limit switches are used in circuits with AC 50-60Hz, voltage up to 500V and DC voltage up to 440V to limit the travel of various mechanisms. They can also be used directly as limit switches for 5.5kw three-phase squirrel cage asynchronous motors (two-phase fire of the main source is cut off).

    Advantage

    All products of the company can be customized for production according to user usage scenarios.

    Structure and working principle

    The shell of the limit switch is made of cast iron, which has good mechanical strength and good corrosion resistance. The performance of the material will not deteriorate under the environmental conditions of marine ships. The shell type is protective, and the protection level can reach IP67. Due to the action of the spring, it can automatically reset. Operating position: 5°→0°-45° The opening and closing of the limit switch contacts are determined by the cam position.

    The agreed heating current of the limit switch is 16A; the rated insulation voltage is 500V; the rated working voltage (Uc) and the rated working current (le) correspond to the figure on the right:

    The rated working voltage of the DC controlled 5.5Kw three-phase squirrel cage asynchronous motor is below 440V and the rated working current is 12A.

    Working conditions

    1. Altitude The altitude of the installation location does not exceed 2,000 meters;

    2. Medium temperature: The ambient air medium temperature is not higher than +75℃ and not lower than -25℃;

    3. Relative humidity: The average relative air humidity in the wettest month of the installation location is not greater than 90% (the average minimum temperature in the month is not greater than +25°C);

    4. Pollution level of environmental conditions: The pollution level of environmental conditions is Level III;

    5. Installation category The installation category is Category I;

    6. Types of limit switches: Structural types are divided according to structural types: The structure of this product is rotary type, and the speed ratios are: 80:1, 40:1, and 20:1. Control loops are divided according to control loops: this limit switch can be equipped with up to 8 control loops.

    Overall and installation dimensions

    Snipaste_2025-07-04_16-42-50
    A contact group (2) is installed in the travel switch housing, and the moving contact and the stationary contact thereof drive the cam on the switch shaft (4) to open and close the contacts as the operating arm (3) rotates. The positioning of the operating arm is achieved by means of a positioning member (5), a positioning spring (6), a positioning lever (7) and a roller (8).
