Overview
The Allen-Bradley 802T-BAP is a metal plug-in oiltight limit switch designed for rugged industrial automation and material handling applications. Features include 10 A standard energy rating, adjustable top push rod, 2-circuit design with 1 NO and 1 NC contacts, snap-acting mechanism, and 1/2″ NPT thread conduit entry. The Bulletin 802T provides heavy-duty pilot ratings, small size, and NEMA Type 13 oiltight construction. Plug-in limit switches have a head and switch body that can be replaced while leaving the wiring chamber base in place, reducing downtime by eliminating rewiring upon switch replacement.
