Dayton SPDT Limit Switch Top Plunger
This Dayton limit switch uses a top-mounted plunger actuator in a miniature enclosed body rated IP60. It provides a single-pole double-throw contact form rated for 15A at 480V AC and DC. Screw terminals allow straightforward wiring for surface-mount installations. The switch suits industrial control circuits where a compact, sealed actuator is required.
Replaces worn miniature limit switches
It serves as a direct replacement for failed SPDT plunger switches with the same 15A 480V rating and screw-terminal wiring. The upgrade is worth it when the existing switch shows contact wear, actuator binding or lost sealing that lets debris into the mechanism. The IP60 enclosure resists dust ingress better than open-frame alternatives.
Sustained load behaviour
Under continuous 15A loading the contacts maintain rated performance without derating in the specified temperature range. The enclosed body and screw terminals dissipate heat from the current path during prolonged actuation cycles. IP60 sealing prevents dust accumulation that could increase contact resistance over time.

Questions about this item
What are the body dimensions and mounting style for the Dayton SPDT limit switch?
The switch body measures 1.76 in high, 3.39 in wide and 1.01 in deep and uses surface mounting.
How is the switch wired, and what is the common mistake?
Wire the screw terminals to match the SPDT contact form; the common mistake is reversing the normally open and normally closed contacts.
What maintenance does the IP60-rated plunger switch need?
Periodically inspect the top plunger for debris and verify the screw terminals remain tight, as the IP60 rating offers no water protection.
