Features

802T Low Energy Switches

Since low energy loads do not arc or burn the contacts clean, contaminants may cause erratic switch behavior. Allen-Bradley® low energy limit switches from Rockwell Automation® are designed with welded gold and silver alloy contacts to provide a protective barrier against surface oxides.Features

Able to connect directly to PLC input
Components and design are optimized to provide long life for low energy use
Provides an alternative to glass enclosed reed switches or solid state devices
An economical alternative to oversized power contacts
Suitable for machine connectivity and low voltage circuits
