Allen Bradley X-379482 — Allen Bradley, Limit Switch Assembly, Screw

The X-379482 is a limit switch assembly manufactured by Allen Bradley. This assembly consists of a screw and a limit switch. The purpose of this assembly is to provide a mechanical means of limiting the movement of a machine or equipment to a specific position.

The screw in the X-379482 assembly is a threaded cylindrical rod that can be turned using an appropriate tool. It is made of a durable material such as stainless steel to ensure longevity and resistance to wear and tear. The screw is designed to fit into a threaded hole on the equipment or machine being controlled. By turning this screw, the limit switch assembly can adjust the position at which the machine is allowed to stop or change direction.

The limit switch is an electrical device that is connected to the screw mechanism. It is designed to detect the position of the screw by sensing the physical contact or proximity of the moving parts. The limit switch is equipped with a set of electrical contacts that can open or close based on the position of the screw. When the machine reaches the desired position set by the screw, the limit switch opens or closes the electrical contacts, sending a signal to the machine's control system to stop or change direction.
