Eaton elevator control switch ES5T2R1GF1B - UL 98 Listed
Part Number: ES5T2R1GF1B
Quick Summary
Eaton elevator control switch is a high-capacity control device designed to manage elevator circuits in demanding industrial environments. Engineers often face bulky, poorly integrated panels and safety interfaces that slow commissioning and raise risk during maintenance. UL Listed (E182262) and UL 98 certifications support compliance, while the built-in fire-safety interface relay and 120 Vac coil monitor add critical protection for life-safety systems. Coupled with a rugged NEMA 1 enclosure and sizable main-lug wiring options, this unit delivers dependable operation in tight spaces and supports scalable control architectures. For procurement teams, the catalog details, warranty, and compliance traceability simplify vendor reviews and asset management.

FAQs
To install ES5T2R1GF1B, verify a suitable indoor NEMA 1 enclosure, prepare feeders sized to the main lug wiring specification, and follow Eaton documentation for mounting the control transformer and fire-safety interface relay. The unit supports large conductor sizes and requires careful routing of control wiring to minimize interference with motor circuits. Ensure the catalog notes are followed, including the option for a neutral lug if your feeder design requires it.
The device is rated for 400 A at 208 V. Main lug wiring accepts (2) #1/0-300 kcmil or (1) #1/0-750 kcmil aluminum or copper conductors. Plan for appropriate overcurrent protection and ensure the feeder materials match the conductor size to meet ampacity and voltage drop requirements. Use correct lugs and torque values per the catalog and local electrical codes.
Yes. The unit includes a 120 Vac coil fire-safety interface relay and a single-pole fire alarm voltage monitoring relay, plus a green pilot light for status indication. Its integrated safety features reduce external wiring complexity and help ensure compliance with fire-safety interface requirements while maintaining reliable elevator control operations.
The ES5T2R1GF1B is UL Listed (E182262) and UL 98 certified, providing building and safety compliance validation. These certifications simplify procurement audits, streamline acceptance testing, and support regulatory adherence for elevator control systems in industrial facilities, minimizing risk during commissioning and ongoing operation.
With a one-year warranty from installation (or 18 months from shipment), the ES5T2R1GF1B offers predictable lifecycle costs and reduced maintenance surprises. Its rugged NEMA 1 enclosure, integrated safety features, and support for large feeders translate to lower field wiring rework, faster commissioning, and improved uptime, contributing to a favorable total cost of ownership over the asset life.
