Eaton LS-XLS Short Roller Lever Actuator Head 290177

In automated production lines and conveyor systems, limit switches detect the position of moving machine parts. The Eaton 290177 is a short roller lever actuator head for the LS-XLS series limit switches, translating mechanical motion into an electrical signal for precise position detection.

Key specifications

• Actuator type: roller lever, short
• Compatibility: Eaton LS-XLS series limit switches
• Operating principle: rotary
• Roller diameter: 18 mm
• Roller material: thermoplastic
• Lever material: metal
• Mounting: screw-on to switch body
• Protection rating: IP66 / IP67 when mounted on compatible switch body

Why choose it

The short roller lever design suits applications with limited space or where the actuating cam travels a short distance. The thermoplastic roller ensures smooth operation and reduced wear on the actuating surface.

Ideal use cases

• Conveyor belt end-of-travel detection
• Machine guard position monitoring
• Automated assembly line component positioning

Good to know

This actuator head is a component of the LS-XLS modular limit switch system, allowing quick replacement without rewiring. It is intended for use with compatible Eaton switch bodies.
