The TLS171 is a compact limit switch that functions as a microswitch or travel switch to provide precise endoftravel sensing in industrial equipment. It is designed to signal position changes to control systems and to help protect machinery by stopping or starting actions when a movable component reaches a defined point. The TLS171 model offers a reliable, easy to install solution for position sensing in tight spaces. Key benefits Reliable position sensing to improve automation accuracy and safety. Simple integration with standard control circuits and mounting patterns. Compact form factor suitable for tight spaces on guides, slides, and small actuators. Durable construction for use in typical industrial environments. Quick installation or replacement to minimize downtime. Key attributes Functionality: endoftravel sensing provided by a microswitch travel switch. Compatibility: suitable for use with standard control wiring and common mounting arrangements. Size: compact design appropriate for limited space installations. Material: rugged housing built for industrial use. Performance: designed for dependable switching and reliable operation when actuated by moving parts. Applications and use cases Endoftravel detection on conveyors, presses, and small automation stages. Safety interlock or guard door sensing on automated equipment to ensure machine safety. Limit sensing for CNC machines, robotic systems, or packaging lines to control motion and prevent overtravel. Note: For exact electrical ratings, mounting dimensions, actuation options, and other specifications, refer to the TLS171 datasheet. This description reflects the model, its intended use, and its role in endoftravel sensing without altering the core specifications.
