One-Way Actuation Switch – SN2170 series SN2170-SL1 SUNS

Possible Applications

The SN2170-SL1 is engineered for directional position sensing in automated material handling systems, such as conveyor belts and sorting lines, where an object must trigger a signal only when moving in one specific direction. Its slow-action contact configuration makes it ideal for precision limit detection in packaging machinery and CNC tool changers, where the switch must reliably register the presence of a component without being tripped by reverse-travel movement. Because the unit lacks an automatic reset, it is frequently integrated into safety interlock circuits for heavy-duty industrial gates or machine guards that require manual intervention or a controlled reset sequence after an actuation event. This robust metal construction ensures consistent performance in harsh manufacturing environments where mechanical durability and precise directional sensing are critical for operational sequencing.
