Pilot light status indication improves fault visibility and troubleshooting speed, reducing downtime and alarm response times in critical lines. The 15A, 120V AC rating supports common industrial loads, enabling fewer relays and simplified wiring in panel assemblies. Copper-free aluminum housing delivers excellent corrosion resistance while keeping weight low, easing installation and reducing handling risk in crowded control rooms. The flush mounting style allows tighter front-panel designs, improving enclosure aesthetics and safeguarding wiring connections in compact panels. Single-pole operation with an integrated pilot light minimizes component count, lowers BOM costs, and delivers clear operation status for operators. Rated for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations, this switch fits standard plant environments without overengineering for hazardous-area requirements.

FAQs
Install the 2716AF using the specified flush-mount cutout in the panel front. Wire the single-pole input and the pilot light per Eaton's installation instructions, ensuring correct voltage at 120 Vac. The copper-free aluminum housing keeps weight down and accelerates handling, while the compact 2.75 inch depth fits tight spaces.
The switch is rated for 15A at 120Vac, single-pole, with an integrated pilot light. It uses a copper-free aluminum housing and is intended for ordinary/non-hazardous locations, making it suitable for standard industrial control panels without special hazardous-area protections.
Yes. The 2716AF is specified for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations, which makes it appropriate for typical plant interiors where standard control panels operate under normal electrical codes and safety practices.
Key differentiators include a built-in pilot light for immediate status indication, a copper-free aluminum housing for corrosion resistance and lighter weight, and a flush-mount design that supports compact panel integration while simplifying wiring and assembly.
The copper-free housing and integrated pilot light reduce maintenance needs and component counts, accelerating installation and commissioning. The lightweight design and durable construction contribute to longer service life, lower replacement costs, and improved uptime in standard industrial facilities.
