Overview
The Honeywell LSJ1A-7A is a MICRO SWITCH HDLS series heavy-duty limit switch engineered for demanding industrial environments. This snap action limit switch features a plug-in modular design with a wobble plastic rod actuator, making it ideal for equipment subjected to shock, vibration, temperature extremes, dust, coolant splashing, and washdown conditions. The modular construction allows for quick actuator and head replacement without removing the wiring base, reducing production line downtime.
Key Features
- Plug-in modular design with two-screw assembly for fast replacement and reduced downtime
- Wobble actuator (plastic rod) with rotatable head for flexible mounting and field adjustability for CW/CCW operation
- SPDT snap action contact form (1NC/1NO) for reliable switching
- Boss-and-socket head design for secure retention and interchangeability with other HDLS and competitive switches
- All-metal drive train for consistent operation at high temperature and longer service life
- Self-lifting pressure plate terminals and easily identified grounding terminal for OSHA compliance
