Running with 5 circuits, 10 Amps, and a maximum of 150 RPM, the 803-B5X stands out in the product line rotating Cam Limit Switches. Manufactured by Allen Bradley, its 1 NO/1 NC contact snap action and 2 to 12 Independent cam Operators are useful features. The 803-B5X has an estimated weight of 27 pounds, allowing normal functioning without impeding the application’s efficiency. The 803-B5X safely combines the need for sturdiness with the need for efficiency in this powerful limit switch. The 803-B5X belongs to the style “B” modification of rotating Cam Limit Switch; just like the others in this category, the 803-B5X is functional by the principle of mounting a cam onto a shaft, which rotates. As the shaft rotates, the mounted cams are able to actuate the contacts.
The 803-B5X contains a left shaft extension, although there are options for this module to contain a Double shaft extension instead. This module also has a cam duration with a minimum of 14 degrees and maximum 346 degrees. The 803-B5X may be paired with a number of enclosures, which are the general purpose Types 1, 4, and 13. All three of these enclosures would provide adequate protection for the 803-B5X, shielding it from dust and water. This top-rated 803-B5X is designed for durability and efficiency. Like others in its class, the 803-B5X has a heavy duty base and is protected with a rugged iron at its sides. The overall result is a solid 803-B5X. The 803-B5X has options for modifications, including an external adjustment Sprocket that is similar to some other styles. The 803-B5X requires a complete catalog number and a separate cam code. The cam code is used to identify style, shaft extensions, and cam code designators.
