FG200P2: Long-Travel Limit Switch with 1:200 Gear Ratio
Introduction: Model FG200P2
The Model FG200P2 is a 2-contact rotary limit switch specifically designed with a **high gear ratio of 1:200**. This feature makes it the perfect choice for machinery that involves a large number of rotations or covers a very long travel distance before reaching its end limits, ensuring reliable and accurate stopping.
Working Principle of FG200P2
The FG200P2 functions using a worm drive mechanism. The **1:200 gear ratio** is key to its operation: for every 200 rotations of the equipment's input shaft, the internal cams of the limit switch complete one full circle. This allows the switch to monitor a very large number of rotations before triggering the stop command.
The two adjustable cams are used to set the upper and lower limits, providing a simple but highly effective safety system for long-range machinery.
Applications for FG200P2 (1:200 Ratio)
This high-ratio model is essential for equipment with extensive travel paths:
-
Long-Span Gantry & Goliath Cranes: For managing end-to-end travel limits on very long runways.
-
Extensive Conveyor Belt Systems: For monitoring the full travel of long belts or activating stops.
-
High-Lift Hoists: In applications like high-rise construction or deep mine shafts where the hoisting rope has many rotations.
-
Rolling Shutters for Large Openings: Such as aircraft hangars or large industrial doors.
