Description

The EGS80 limit switch is suitable for a multitude of measuring requirements. It is used universally in combination with force transducers of all types or load cells. It is used in force or weight monitoring in conveyor systems, cranes, hoists etc. This limit switch allows galvanic isolation between field circuits and control circuits and can also be used as a galvanic isolator.

It is operated via the control panel on the front of the instrument or via the free PC software. The software enables easy and fast parameterisation. A file with the setting parameters can be created, saved and loaded into any model EGS80 limit switch. If several instruments must be parameterised identically, the time required is significantly reduced. An adapter cable for the PC connection with “SUB-D9/25 to audio plug” or “USB type A to audio plug” can be supplied as an option.
