Industrial Limit Switch
The Dayton 12T961 is a miniature rotary limit switch with a roller lever actuator designed for industrial electrical control and automation systems. It mounts on the side of equipment to detect mechanical position or movement in machinery and conveyor applications. The switch body measures 2.41 in high by 1.12 in wide by 1.01 in deep and carries a NEMA 1 rating for indoor use.
SPDT Contact Capacity
A single-pole double-throw contact arrangement rated at 10A and 250V for both AC and DC circuits provides reliable switching for control panels, motor starters and safety interlocks. The screw terminals accept standard wiring for secure connections. This rating suits typical pilot-duty and low-power loads but does not support high-current motor direct switching.
Roller Lever Actuation
The side-mounted rotary roller lever converts linear or rotary motion into switch operation without a boot seal, making it suitable for clean, dry environments where debris ingress is not a concern. Buyers needing sealed actuators for wash-down or outdoor exposure should select a different switch style.

Questions about this item
Will the 10 A 250 V contacts handle the same load as my existing 10 A relay?
Yes, the SPDT contacts are rated for 10 A at 250 V AC and 10 A at 250 V DC, matching that relay rating.
How can I verify the switch actuates correctly after wiring the screw terminals?
Operate the roller lever by hand; the internal contacts should snap over with a distinct click at the same travel point each time.
Does the box include mounting hardware or only the switch body?
Only the limit switch body is supplied; mounting screws and any wiring ferrules must be purchased separately.
