YAMATAKE 6LS3-JG limit switch electrician tool

Industrial limit switch for control circuits

The YAMATAKE 6LS3-JG is a red limit switch built for industrial control panels and machinery safety circuits. It functions as test equipment that detects physical position and opens or closes contacts accordingly. Electricians and maintenance technicians use it to automate stopping, starting or sequencing operations. The unit ships new in a single pack box.

Suits panel wiring and safety interlocks

This switch fits builders wiring conveyor stops, guard doors or machine end-of-travel detection where a mechanical actuator is required. It is not suited for applications needing non-contact sensing, wireless signalling or programmable logic functions. Buyers who need higher contact ratings or different actuator styles should look at other models.

Mechanical actuator defines switching action

The single specification that decides fit is the mechanical actuator type, which determines how the switch is triggered in your specific installation. Verify the actuator style matches the cam, lever or plunger geometry of your equipment before ordering. The red colour aids visual identification inside crowded enclosures.
