Limit Switches
HK244 and WK244
Momentary-contact limit switches
for low voltage circuit
HK244 and WK244
■ Description
HK244 and WK244 limit switches have
been developed for use in low voltage
and low current circuits. They will
operate effectively in 3 Volts AC or DC,
5mA circuits although they are
recommended that they are used in 48
Volts or 110 Volts circuits for best
results.

HK244 limit switches are provided with
pure silver contacts. The movable
contact carries out a scrubbing action
during make/break operation ensuring
good connections at all times.
The switch body is molded from a high
performance resin, and versions with
transparent plastic covers and with
aluminum die-cast housing are also
available.

The bifurcated contact is made of pure
silver and like the HK244 series they are
also suitable for use with low voltage
circuits. The dimensions and operating
strokes are similar to the standard type.
