Actuators for rotary switches such as
WLCA-TS roller lever and WLCL-TS rod
lever switches can be positioned within a
360° range. Loosen the Allen-head set bolt
on the side of the actuator, position the
actuator, then tighten in place.
Actuator lever
can be installed
at any angle in
360°.
ROTARY ACTUATOR POSITIONING
The operating head of many switches can
be set to four 90° positions to match
installation requirements. Loosen the four
Phillips head screws on the operating
head, and lift the head off. Then, position
with the shaft in the desired direction.
Replace the four screws to fasten the
operating head. Applicable switches
include those with roller levers (WLCA-
TS), rod levers (WLCL-TS), horizontal
plungers (WLSD-TS) and roller plungers
(WLD2-TS and WLD28-TS).

horizontal plunger switches
Head
Loosen the screws
Example of roller plunger switches
Rotary actuator switches can be set for
clockwise (CW), counterclockwise (CCW) or
operation both ways (CW+CCW). To change
the operating direction, loosen the four
screws on the switch head. Then, lift off the
head. The plunger marker inside is set
parallel with the face plate, as shown at right.
Turn the plunger so the marking faces left for
CW or right for CCW as shown. Replace the
actuator head in the direction suitable for the
installation and tighten the four screws.

or use the more typical installation with the
roller lever facing away from the body. To
change the actuator position, loosen the
Allen-head set bolt, pull the actuator off,
and reposition it on the shaft. Then, tighten
the set bolt at the desired angle.

Overtravel Type
Standard Limit Switches Overtravel Limit Switches
Overtravel type limit switches offer a longer
overtravel (OT) to accommodate different
cam shapes. The key difference between
"standard" and "overtravel" is in the angle
of operation: overtravel types can operate
at 90° on either side of the center point.
Standard types are recommended for
operation at 45° on either side of the center
point. However, overtravel type switches
cannot be expected to provide 90°
operation on only one side.

WLCA2-2TS Short Roller Lever Overtravel Switch
WLCA12-2TS Adjustable Roller Lever Overtravel Switch
Note:
Levers for WLCAL4-2-TS and WLCAL5-2-TS have a large tare, so positioning the actuator with the bottom up will reduce chattering.
Operating characteristics of WLCA12-2-TS are measured at arm length of 38 mm (1.29 in).
Operating characteristics of WLCL-2-TS are at arm length of 140 mm (5.51 in)
Operating characteristics of WLCAL4-2-TS are measured at rod length of 380 mm (1.25 ft)
Operating characteristics of WLCAL5-2-TS are measured at rod length of 412.5 mm (1.35 ft)
Legend: OF = Operating Force (max.); RF = Reset Force (min.); OT = Overtravel (min.); PT = Pretravel

WLGCA2-TS Short Roller Lever High Precision Switch
The key differences between "high-
precision" and "standard" limit switches
are in the pretravel (PT) ratings and the
repeat accuracy. High-precision
switches have a pretravel (PT) of 5°
compared to 20° for standard switches.
The repeat accuracy is best compared by
referring to the graph at right. High-
precision switches are ideal for position-
ing control in machine tools and other
applications.
