The EGT1/4A5000 is a single-hole fixing limit switch from Euchner using a reed contact switching principle, fitted with a ball plunger (short) actuating element and a 5 m PUR two-core cable. It provides one normally open contact and mounts via an M14 x 1 threaded section in stainless steel, with a plastic sleeve and rhodium contact material. With a degree of protection of IP68 and a cable ambient temperature range of -25 to +80°C, it suits position sensing tasks on machinery and equipment installed in harsh or washdown environments, and can be mounted in any orientation.
