Ametek Gemco 2006 Series Rotary Limit Switch

Gemco 2006 controls the intermediate and end limits of linear or rotary motion for instance on cranes, hoists, packaging machinery, conveyor, doors, or material handling equipment preventing these from exceeding the intended working area.

The Gemco 2006 rotary limit switch also prevents overtravel by cutting power to the motor or device that is driving the machine. This secures the equipment, the goods, the workflow and most importantly, the personnel.Gemco 2006 Series is rated for more than 15 million operations. The all-metal gearing and the shaft tested to up to 2000 RPM works both clockwise and counter-clockwise. The 2006 Series is manufactured with electrical switches that are UL recognized.

The simplicity of the rotary limit switch is the key to its success. The limit switch is easy to set up, very simple to wire and will work flawlessly with no maintenance due to the self-lubricating bearings.

Many cranes need to work in freezing temperatures, or in the hot summer sun. This will not lower the safety as Gemco 2006 rotary limit switch works unaffected from -40 to 82°C (-40 to 180°F).
