Overview
The Micro Switch LSZ51A is a replacement lever arm actuator designed for heavy-duty industrial limit switch applications. As a front-mount fixed rotary lever with nylon roller, it is designed for use with the Micro-switch HDLS series limit and enclosed switches. This component provides reliable position sensing and control in machinery, conveyors, packaging equipment, and process automation where limit switches must detect equipment position or travel limits.
Key Features
- 1.50 inch (38.1 mm) long roller lever with 0.32 inch (8.1 mm) wide by 0.75 inch (19mm) diameter nylon roller
- Front-mount fixed rotary design for direct compatibility with HDLS series limit switches
- Nylon roller material resists corrosion and wear in demanding industrial environments
- Standard replacement for existing HDLS installations
- Robust cast zinc/nylon construction rated for continuous industrial duty
