Goal: Cut power to a motor when the switch is pressed.
One of the defining features of the XKJ7 series is its versatility in actuation. Depending on the specific sub-model, the XKJ7 switch can be configured with: xkj7 switch
In window and door contact sensors, the XKJ7 is used as a plunger switch. When a window is closed, it pushes the plunger in (activating the NC circuit, keeping the alarm "sleeping"). When the window opens, the plunger releases, the NC circuit breaks, and the alarm triggers. Goal: Cut power to a motor when the switch is pressed
The XKJ7 is frequently used as an . When the printer head or CNC gantry moves to its maximum X, Y, or Z axis, it physically hits the roller lever of the XKJ7. This instantly signals the controller to stop the stepper motor, preventing a "crash." Users prefer the XKJ7 over optical sensors because it is immune to dust and debris from wood or plastic cutting. When a window is closed, it pushes the
On factory assembly lines, the XKJ7 detects product flow. If a box on a conveyor presses the roller lever, it can trigger a barcode scanner or a robotic arm. If no box is detected, the system knows there is a jam.
