The Siemens 3SE5112-0CH80 is a SIRIUS 3SE5 series mechanical position / limit switch with a metal housing and adjustable rod lever actuator. It is designed for reliable position detection in industrial automation systems, providing clear switching signals for end-of-travel, safety, or process control applications. Its robust construction and high protection rating make it suitable for harsh industrial environments.
The Siemens 3SE5112-0CH80 is used for mechanical position detection in machinery and automation systems. Typical applications include end-of-travel detection on moving machine parts, door and guard interlocks, conveyor endpoints, position signalling in production lines, and general industrial limit switching applications where reliable mechanical feedback is required.
