£72.17
The Lovato Electric KBH1L12 is a robust K series industrial limit switch with ceramic rod lever designed for position detection and machine control applications. Its polymer thermoplastic housing and ceramic operating rod provide a durable solution for machinery, automation equipment and industrial control systems requiring dependable mechanical position sensing.
The KBH1L12 incorporates 1 normally open and 2 normally closed (1NO+2NC) slow-action contacts and has a conventional thermal current rating of 10 A. Its electrical characteristics include an A600 Q600 IEC/EN 60947-5-1 designation, 690 V rated insulation voltage and 6 kV rated impulse withstand voltage.
With its polymer thermoplastic housing, ceramic rod actuator and bottom M20 cable entry, the KBH1L12 is designed for professional industrial installation. The body housing provides IP65 protection, while self-releasing screw terminals and a locking bayonet operating-head fixing support practical installation and maintenance.
Industrial limit switches provide electromechanical position detection by changing contact state when their actuator is physically operated by a moving machine component. This makes them suitable for detecting travel limits, component positions and mechanical movements within automated machinery and production equipment.
The Lovato Electric KBH1L12 combines a ceramic rod lever with one normally open and two normally closed slow-action contacts. Its robust thermoplastic construction, industrial electrical ratings and IP65 body housing protection make it suitable for professional machine-building, maintenance and automation applications.
