Mechanical limit switch
The technical specifications for limit switches can be found in the catalogue. Ensure that the
wiring is safely laid out during installation. Avoid damage to the wiring, for example by having
radii that are too small, as this can lead to failure of the system. The wiring must not be in the path
travelled by the linear unit.
The limit switch is installed via a track that can be fastened to the linear unit's end elements using
fixing elements. The limit switches can be axially moved on and affixed to the rails.
