Siemens Roller bar with central attachment

Accessory variant: Actuation head
For use with: Limit switch 3SE5

The limit switch actuating elements 3SE5 are a series of switch heads designed for use with the SIRIUS limit switch series 3SE5. Due to their plug connection and standardized interface, these switch heads can be easily exchanged. They are compatible with both modular switching units and complete switch units.

Rounded plungers and roller plungers allow operation in the direction of the plunger axis or with the rod at a right angle to the plunger axis. These have an additional follow-up path and therefore a greater operating distance. For lateral actuation and a relatively long follow-up path, the roller plunger is recommended.

Roller levers and angled roller levers are available. Depending on the output direction (left or right), different approach angles (α = 30°) and follow-up angles (γ = 45°) are possible. Actuating elements made of finely ground steel in the form of cams, straight edges, or cam discs are also available.

Rotary levers and rod actuating elements offer a high starting speed (v = 1.5 m/s) and a selection of starting options. They are resistant to oil, grinding dust, ice, and coarse-grained materials. With the rotary lever, the maximum approach angle is always equal to the maximum follow-up angle.

The plunger actuating element can be used when no actuating element with approach and follow-up angle is possible. A 10° adjustment of the rotary lever is possible. Spring rods can be used for undefined actuations and changing starting conditions, with starting from any direction.

Roller plungers for central mounting with a thread of M18 x 1 allow for quick assembly and easy adjustment. Fork levers can be switched in two directions and provide a latching actuating element for alternating movements.
