Description Technical Data Precision, rugged duty snap action switches, extremely accurate cam adjustments with a heavy duty shaft, rugged case and lifetime sealed ball bearings, have been combined by GEMCO to provide the most versatile and dependable Rotating Cam Limit Switch available. • The maximum temperature with full electrical load is 185°F. The minimum operating temperature is 50°F minimum cam adjusting temperature is -10°F.
Electrical Switches Description The GEMCO Precision Snap Switches are designed for industrial duty applications where compact size, complete reliability and millions of trouble free operations are required. The switches are individually mounted and can be readily replaced without the need of adjustment or alignment. All switches have binder head terminal screws which are accessible for wiring with either stripped or wire lug connections.
