bar-miniswitch

Introducing the bar-miniswitch 

The Compact, Self-Setting Position Indicator for Fast, Reliable Installation on Manual Valves and pneumatic actuators. 

The bar-miniswitch is a compact optical/electrical position indicator designed specifically for installations where space, speed, and reliability matter. Featuring self-setting switching points, it automatically adjusts both end positions during installation—eliminating manual calibration and reducing installation time. 

With its sealed IP67 housing, plug-and-play electrical connections, and flexible mounting options, the bar-miniswitch provides a dependable, installer-friendly solution for modern valve automation. 

Special Features 

Self-Setting End Positions 

Automatic adjustment of both end positions ensures switching points are always correctly set—without opening the housing or performing manual calibration. 

Fast, Safe Installation 

Plug-and-play M12 electrical connections and a sealed housing enable quick installation and replacement, even without specialised electrical personnel. 

Compact Design for Tight Spaces 

Its small footprint and direct-mount construction minimise installation space and weight, making it ideal for compact actuators and retrofit projects. 

Clear Optical Position Indication 

Highly visible position indication provides immediate confirmation of valve status for both 2/2-way and 3/2-way valves. 

IP67 Protection 

Designed for demanding environments, the bar-miniswitch offers robust protection against dust and moisture. 

Flexible Configuration Options 

Available with mechanical microswitches or inductive switches, multiple mounting dimensions, shaft extensions, and optional mounting bridges to suit a wide range of actuator sizes
