Stonel™ Eclipse™

Compact and modular limit switch with solid state reliability

EC-limit-switch.jpg

The Stonel Eclipse limit switch features dual solid state sensors with optional communication. Electronics are neatly integrated into a sealed module. The function module and trigger/indicator are in an ultra compact housing that attaches quickly and conveniently to standard VDI/VDE 3845 (NAMUR) actuator accessory mounting pads. It is suitable for general purpose, nonincendive and intrinsically safe applications and available with optional wireless capabilities.

Compact design reduces space and in tight process areas

LEDs indicate electronic switch status to confirm electrical operation

Bold visual indication enables easy confirmation of valve position

No moving mating parts assure long life and trouble-free operation

Features

  • Compact, corrosion-resistant design allows minimal clearance and long life
  • Wireless capabilities option improves safety and reduces installation time
  • Flush mounts to VDI/VDE 3845 actuators (kits sold separately)
  • High-intensity red/green LEDs clearly show switch status
  • Touch pad sensor settings enable fast commissioning and remain locked even when power removed
  • Fully sealed for high-pressure washdowns, protecting against corrosion, debris, and water
  • Power outputs support external solenoids
  • Patented auto-detection of PNP/NPN input cards simplifies installation
  • Universal voltage locks position settings, retaining them even after power loss
