APPLICATIONS · AUTOMATED PARKING
Engineered limit switches for automated parking systems—providing reliable position confirmation across high-frequency daily cycles and semi-outdoor weather exposure.
THE DEMANDS
Drive bays sit in rain, humidity, and seasonal temperature swings. Sealing is chosen by exposure: IP65 housings for covered bays, IP67 models with sealed cable entries for positions the weather reaches.
Parking systems run unattended, and the traffic keeps coming until late. The switch has to answer at the same point in the evening as in the morning rush.
Cars in a parking system wait on each other. A failed position switch stops the queue, and the entrance fills up while the operator takes calls.
SWITCH POSITIONS
POSITION
Switches confirm the platform reaches the level before a car or pallet crosses onto it. Semi-outdoor installations use IP67 models at these positions.
TZ-8 Series
TZ-3 Series (IP67)
LIMIT
Frames and slides run to a stop at the end of each move. Metal-housed switches take the contact and the outdoor conditions at these stops.
WL Series
TSA Series
LOW CLEARANCE
Compact horizontal housings fit tight mechanical clearances between lift beams and transfer shuttles where vertical switches cannot clear.
TZ-8 Series
TZ-7 Series

WHAT MATTERS
The New York platform started with a sample that came back from a wet site. The second recommendation moved to IP67 with a sealed entry, guided by that site's feedback.
Metal housings serve the structure positions, and reinforced plastic covers the bays and boxes. The material follows the position.
Mounting arms adjust to the frame geometry found on site and fit the structure at hand.
Covered or exposed, the plan comes back with the right protection level for each point.
MAINTENANCE
Parking systems get serviced between traffic peaks. The switch checks below take the same visit.
NEXT STEP
Tell us about the site: covered or exposed, the system layout, and the positions that need confirming. Samples go out for site trials.
Download catalogues with ratings and drawings, and ask 3D files for the system design.
