The L8-S series micro linear actuator is a compact axial device with built-in end-of-stroke limit switches that disable power when the actuator reaches within 0.8mm of full extension or retraction. It operates on 6VDC or 12VDC, with maximum stroke lengths of 10mm to 100mm and gear ratios of 50:1, 100:1, or 210:1. The unit has a closed length ranging from 62mm to 152mm depending on stroke, weighs 19g to 34g, and operates between -10°C and +50°C. It features IP-54 ingress protection, a maximum duty cycle of 20%, and a mechanical backlash of less than 0.3mm. The actuator is supplied with mounting brackets and M3 hardware, and a 300mm cable with a 0.1" pitch female socket connector.
L8-S Linear Actuator with Limit Switches
The L8-S series micro linear actuator is our smallest compact limit switch actuator to date. It is a significant step down in size from the L12 while maintaining high standards for performance.
