ROTARY ACTUATOR POSITIONING 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. OPERATING HEAD 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 (WLCATS), rod levers (WLCL-TS), horizontal plungers (WLSD-TS) and roller plungers (WLD2-TS and WLD28-TS). Example of roller lever, rod lever and horizontal plunger switches Example of roller plunger switches Head Loosen the screws OPERATING DIRECTION OF STANDARD 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. Operates Operates CW+CCW (both ways operation) CW 90 operation to right ROLLER LEVER ACTUATOR POSITIONING The roller(s) on roller lever actuators may be faced inward toward the operating head 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. Operates Loosen the Allen-head set bolt FORK ROLLER LEVER ACTUATORS The illustration at right indicates the differences among the fork lever actuators. All may be reversed as shown above. 12 Operates CCW 90 operation to left WL WL ADJUSTING LEVER AND ROD LENGTH Switches with adjustable lever and rod actuators can be set to desired length by loosening the Allen-head set screw, setting the length. Then tighten the set screw. Rod lever switch Adjustable roller lever switch STATUS INDICATOR EQUIPPED SWITCH OPERATION WL switches are available with neon lamp (WL-TS-LE) or LED (WL-TSLD) status indicators for easy monitoring and troubleshooting. They come factoryset for Normally Open operation ON. It is easy to change the status to Normally Closed operation ON. See the Installation section for details. Indicator lights when NC contacts release (when actuator rotates or is pushed down) Indicator is lit while actuator is free, then goes off when NO contacts close: when actuator rotates or is pushed down When connecting a limit switch to a programmable controller, select the neon lamp or LED with the smallest leakage current. Refer to the table at right. To change operation to Normally Closed ON, remove the cover from the switch body, and rotate lamp holder 180. Then, replace the unit in the housing.

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.

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. Highprecision switches are ideal for positioning control in machine tools and other applications.
