Quiet operation translates to real business value by reducing audible disturbances in busy control rooms and panel enclosures. The 2001CH uses a refined mechanism to minimize start-up chatter and relay chatter during load transitions, lowering operator fatigue and extending component life. This makes it ideal for motor-control panels, HVAC systems, and lighting circuits where dependable actuation matters. In addition, the quiet switch design supports longer relay life and less nuisance arcing, which translates to lower maintenance costs over time. Flush-mount design saves panel space and simplifies installation. The compact footprint enables flush mounting in tight enclosures, speeding wiring and improving panel aesthetics. It is well suited for new builds and retrofits in manufacturing lines where space is at a premium and backbox configurations vary. The flush-mount approach also reduces bending and wear on wires by keeping connections neatly aligned behind the faceplate. UL-listed safety certification provides a clear compliance baseline for electrical protection devices. This assurance supports procurement workflows and regulatory reviews in regulated facilities. The 2001CH accepts #14-10 AWG wires and carries a 14 lbf-in torque rating to ensure secure, repeatable field connections while maintaining consistent actuation torque across cycles. Four-pole configuration supports independent control of multi-load circuits. This arrangement enables handling MLV, LED, CFL, Halogen, Incandescent, and motor-control loads with a single switch, reducing parts count and wiring complexity. Operates at 120/208 V, aligning with common plant distributions and minimizing the need for additional control hardware. The robust mounting and insulation characteristics further mitigate cross-talk and unintended energization. Broad compatibility and straightforward procurement add value by reducing inventory complexity. With UL listing, quiet operation, and a proven torque spec, the 2001CH can streamline wiring sequences, shorten commissioning times, and improve reliability in panel assemblies across industrial automation environments. Integrators will appreciate consistent dimming and load-type compatibility, as the device supports multiple lighting technologies and motor-control scenarios with a single, conventional form factor.

FAQs
The 2001CH is designed for flush mounting in standard electrical panels. Use appropriate faceplates, secure the device to match the panel thickness, and wire with #14-10 AWG conductors, keeping within the 14 lbf-in torque rating to ensure reliable actuation and long-term stability.
Yes. The switch is rated for 120/208 V and supports a broad load profile including motor-control, LED, CFL, incandescent, and other lighting technologies, making it versatile for panels that manage mixed electrical loads.
The device accepts #14-10 AWG wiring. Use the specified torque of 14 lbf-in to ensure a secure, repeatable connection and to minimize contact resistance over repeated actuation cycles.
The 2001CH is UL-listed, providing a verified safety standard for electrical control devices. This certification supports compliance workflows and procurement processes in regulated facilities, reducing risk during audits and inspections.
Quiet operation minimizes audible disturbance during actuation, reducing operator fatigue and interference with nearby equipment. This also lowers relay wear from arcing over time and contributes to lower maintenance costs in busy manufacturing or process environments.
