FAQs
The 833F-C1 employs a flush-mount design with through-feed entry and a 1/2" trade size, allowing straightforward wiring through panel walls. This facilitates clean panel layouts, minimizes gasket gaps, and reduces field fabrication time, especially in tight or retrofitted control enclosures used in industrial automation and marine applications.
Yes. The 833F-C1 features IP66 ingress protection, protecting against dust and powerful water jets, making it suitable for harsh environments. It is intended for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations, aligning with common industrial safety requirements while enabling reliable operation in non-classified areas.
Absolutely. The switch is a two-pole device rated at 15A for 120 VAC, designed to control line and load circuits in industrial control panels. This rating supports direct switching of standard automation loads without auxiliary devices, improving efficiency and reducing panel complexity.
Key considerations include using the flush-mount with through-feed entry to minimize ingress paths, selecting brass construction for corrosion resistance, and verifying that wiring fits the 1/2" trade size. Also ensure enclosure seals meet IP66 requirements and that the device operates within Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations to maintain compliance.
