Furnace Lid open switch
Furnace Lid open switch
(OP)
Hello,
Does anybody have ideas of how I can instrument this furnace to get a confirmation that the lid is open to a PLC.
The lid lifts up & turns to the right it is acuated by a hydraulic cylinder.
The furnace can also tilt forward.

If swung out you can tag a bracket onto the box surrounding the hinge and use an inductive proximity sensor to detect the bolt that is visible on the side of the hinge.
