MICRO SWITCH Compact Precision Limit Switches 4CE Series Datasheet
MICRO SWITCH 4CE Series Compact Precision Limit Switches All MICRO SWITCH 4CE Series compact enclosed switches incorporate fluorocarbon diaphragm sealing to provide reliable protection, meeting IP65, IP66, IP67, and IP68, as well as NEMA,, 3, 3R, 4, 6, 6P, and 3 requirements. Versions with a boot seal also meet NEMA requirements (dust, falling dirt, liquid media with solid contaminates). The cable or connector and basic switch terminals are encapsulated in an epoxy sealant, offering excellent resistance in harsh environments. For low temperature applications (down to -40 C, -40 F), CE Series switches can be supplied with low temperature seals and lubricant. The CE Series switches are rugged and versatile switches which can be applied indoors in many harsh factory floor applications, as well as on outdoor equipment in extreme temperatures. A full range of actuators are available, including plain plungers, roller plungers, side rotary, multi-directional wire, and manually operated. The switches are also available with the industry standard, M micro-change 4-pin connector. MICRO SWITCH 4CE products meet worldwide CE requirements. What makes our switches better? Compact construction for minimal real estate on equipment Gang mounting capability to provide a multi-plunger limit switch Rugged, die-cast zinc housing for demanding environments Variety of cable length options and choice of side or bottom exit cable/connector for design flexibility Functionality over a wide temperature range with factory sealed connectors or wiring Big performance in a little package. sensing.honeywell.com CUSTOMIZATION COMPACT HIGH PERFORMING DURABILITY
Features and Benefits RUGGED, COMPACT CONSTRUCTION MICRO SWITCH 4CE Series limit switches compact construction requires minimal real estate on equipment. Consistent performance is delivered in many demanding environments where petroleum, synthetic or water based fluids are present. Its die-cast zinc housing and fluorocarbon diaphragm seal maintain a tightly sealed, IP65/66/67/68 and NEMA,, 3, 3R, 4, 6, 6P, (boot seal), 3 rugged package. Gang-mounting option CUSTOMIZATION Switches are pre-leaded (harmonized CENELEC cable) or supplied with a M four-pin connector to decrease installation time. 4CE Series wide selection of actuators minimize installation or time issues. length variations are available for equipment requiring different cable lengths with side and bottom exit cable/connector options for equipment flexibility. COMPACT DESIGN Rugged, compact switch designed with the common 5 mm mounting centers. The 4CE Series is engineered with MICRO SWITCH SM switches for consistent, precise actuation. High performance switch for small spaces LONG LIFE Mechanical life up to five million cycles for wobble actuators, and up to ten million cycles for all other actuators delivers long-lasting performance. DESIGN FLEXIBILITY Gang mounting capability provides a multi-plunger limit switch option. Low temperature variants are available for indoor and outdoor applications. GLOBAL APPLICATIONS MICRO SWITCH 4CE limit switches have CE approval for world-wide use. sensing.honeywell.com 3
