B-LINE E50KL556 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is the B-Line E50KL556 limit switch operator used with?
The E50KL556 is a spring rod actuator for E50 series side rotary limit switches. It replaces or adds the operating lever on a side rotary switch body, so it is the actuating arm rather than the switch itself. If the switch you are working on is a plunger or top-push style, this spring rod won't mount to it.
2) Can the E50 spring rod limit switch operator be used in a washdown or outdoor location?
Yes. The E50KL556 operator carries NEMA 1, 3, 3S, 4, 4X, 6, 6P, 13 and IP67 environmental ratings, which covers outdoor, hosedown, corrosive-duty and temporary-submersion locations. The 4X rating is the one that matters in food processing and chemical areas.
3) Does the B-Line E50KL556 include the limit switch itself?
No. The E50KL556 is an operator only, the spring rod arm that mounts to an E50 series side rotary switch. You need the switch body and its contact block separately if you are building a new station rather than replacing a broken rod.
4) Is the B-Line E50KL556 operator metal or plastic?
Nylon. That is what makes it a good pick where a metal rod would corrode or where you want the actuator to flex and return rather than bend permanently on an overtravel hit. It is also why it is not the choice for high-impact contact against steel carriers.
