Features/Applications
The following NEMA 12/13 switches are hand operated, key lockable, control circuit devices, rated ‘Heavy Duty’ normally for use with electromagnetic equipment. The body and some of the plunger heads are painted with a dry powder paint, and made from die-cast zinc. The plastic plunger heads (see chart below) are solid colors throughout. Each captive terminal will accept (2) #14 AWG stranded wires and the contacts are gold plated to eliminate high resistance tarnishing. Each switch is supplied with mounting hardware and a solid neoprene rubber gasket which provides an oil tight seal upon installation. The mechanical life of these devices is 500,000 operations. These switches can be found on a variety of machines such as punch presses and press brakes as “RUN”, “START” or “STOP” buttons. The switches marked BY-PASS are designed with the normal operation of one NO and one NC, when the switch is “Locked Out” BOTH sets of contacts are closed, producing an electrical by-pass condition. This switch is normally found on multiple operator presses. The red plunger “Positive Break” styles comply with all standards for ‘emergency stop’ applications. The rugged construction and long term reliability of these switches makes them extremely well suited to function within various industrial /commercial environments.
