Product Description:

The EA700-86000 Switch is built with durable materials and modular design by Danaher and ensures precise operation and long lasting performance in industrial automation systems. This Snaplock Limit Switches series model offers quality, safety and versatile control solutions.

The EA700-86000 switch can safely break and make circuits across a wide voltage range (both AC and DC) which makes it versatile for many applications. It is rated to carry current reliably and matches the voltage specs which is important for pilot duty. It is created to handle real power loads not just light ones with 75-100% power factor performance which means it is solid even under inductive loads like motors or transformers. Its robust and break capability and high voltage support indicates it is durable under frequent switching, even in high load scenarios. The module lever is very flexible for setting precise actuation points as it can be adjusted every 7°30’ through a full 360° rotation. This model is modular, reliable and customizable which makes the maintenance or configuration for different machines easier. It comes with silver alloy butt contacts which are excellent for conductivity and wear resistance. Also, this limit switch NEMA form Z provides increased reliability and faster circuit interruption.

The EA700-86000 switch is manufactured from zinc and offers protection from dust, water and oil. It is able to use standard, wide or long mounting plates, which gives the installation flexibility in different machine layouts. The module is able to work with both AC and DC circuits which aids versatility. It is a solid and industrial grade build with a weight of 3.56 lbs. It meets standards established by NEMA that acknowledges its suitability in a demanding environment.
