Why Choose the Lovato Electric KBL1A11 Limit Switch?
The Lovato Electric KBL1A11 is a robust K series industrial limit switch with adjustable rod lever designed for reliable position detection in machinery and automation systems. Its polymer thermoplastic housing and adjustable aluminium-zinc alloy rod provide a practical electromechanical switching solution for industrial applications requiring flexible mechanical actuation.
The KBL1A11 incorporates 1 normally open and 1 normally closed (1NO+1NC) slow-action make-before-break contact and has a conventional thermal current rating of 10 A. Its electrical characteristics include an A600 Q600 IEC/EN 60947-5-1 designation, a rated insulation voltage of 690 V and a rated impulse withstand voltage of 6 kV.
Designed with dimensions compatible with EN 50047, the KBL1A11 features a bottom M20 cable entry and self-releasing screw terminals for practical industrial installation. Its body housing provides IP65 protection, while the adjustable rod lever allows the actuator position to be configured to suit the movement and geometry of the machinery.

Reliable Position Detection for Industrial Machinery
Industrial limit switches provide electromechanical position detection by changing contact state when their actuator is physically operated by a moving machine component. This allows control systems to detect travel limits, component positions and mechanical movements within automated machinery and production equipment.
The Lovato Electric KBL1A11 combines an adjustable rod lever with 1NO+1NC slow-action make-before-break contacts. Its adjustable actuator provides flexibility when matching the switch to machine movement, while its thermoplastic construction, industrial electrical ratings and IP65 body housing protection support reliable operation in professional automation applications.
Typical Applications
- Industrial machinery position detection.
- Machine travel and end-position monitoring.
