LXW20-11/M Micro Limit Switch 16A 1NO 1NC Silver Contact

LXW20-11/M Micro Limit Switch – 16A, 1NO 1NC, Silver Alloy Contact

The LXW20-11/M Micro Limit Switch is a high-sensitivity, industrial-grade travel switch designed for precise circuit control in automation equipment, home appliances, access control systems, and more. With a silver alloy contact, flame-retardant ABS housing, and wide load compatibility, this compact switch delivers reliable, repeatable performance in demanding environments. Made in Mainland China.

Key Features

• Ultra-Sensitive Trigger Response: High-purity silver alloy conductive contact combined with a low contact resistance structure enables millisecond-level circuit switching, reducing false triggering and improving overall equipment stability.
• Flame-Retardant Impact-Resistant Shell: Constructed from high-grade flame-retardant ABS engineering plastic with excellent insulation and corrosion resistance — built to withstand harsh industrial and everyday environments for extended service life.
• Wide Load Compatibility: Thickened pure copper internal conductive components support up to AC 380V 16A and DC 250V 5A, covering a broad range of circuit control applications without additional parameter adjustments.
• Stable, Easy-to-Install Design: Pre-drilled standard mounting holes with reinforced edges ensure tight, firm installation — eliminating displacement or poor contact after long-term use and simplifying the assembly process.
• Laser-Engraved Parameter Markings: Permanent, non-fading circuit diagram and rated load labels on the housing allow for quick identification, accurate wiring, and minimized installation errors.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What does 1NO 1NC mean on the LXW20-11/M limit switch?

A: 1NO 1NC refers to the contact configuration — 1 Normally Open (NO) and 1 Normally Closed (NC) contact. In its default (unactuated) state, the NO contact is open (circuit off) and the NC contact is closed (circuit on). When the plunger is pressed, the contacts switch states, allowing the switch to both open and close circuits in a single unit.

Q: What is the maximum load this micro limit switch supports?

A: The LXW20-11/M micro limit switch supports up to AC 380V at 16A and DC 250V at 5A, making it compatible with a wide range of industrial and household circuit control applications.

Q: How is the LXW20-11/M micro limit switch mounted?

A: The switch features pre-drilled, standard-size mounting holes with reinforced edges for easy and secure installation. Simply align the holes with your mounting surface and fasten with standard screws — no special tools or brackets required.

Q: Is this limit switch suitable for outdoor or harsh environments?

A: The flame-retardant ABS housing offers good insulation and corrosion resistance, making it suitable for many industrial environments. However, for fully outdoor or high-moisture applications, please verify the IP rating requirements of your installation before use.
