Quick Summary
The Eaton 2102A snap switch provides rugged, surface-mounted control for Pauluhn 2100-series panels. Too often, downtime and mismatched specifications stall assemblies, increasing risk and project costs. Its IP66 protection, Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations area rating, and copper-free aluminum housing ensure durability in environments where exposure to dust and water is common. As a cost-efficient, plug-in solution for surface-mounted two-pole control, it supports reliable operation while simplifying procurement for industrial plants. For Pauluhn 2100-series applications, its single-gang footprint and 15A at 277 Vac rating deliver robust performance with a lower total cost of ownership. This combination also helps maintenance teams standardize parts across panels, reducing stocking complexity.
