Eaton 10316H700 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can this Eaton 10316H limit switch be used in a Class I Division 1 hazardous area?
Yes. The Eaton 10316H hazardous location limit switch carries NEMA 7 Division I Class I Groups B, C and D and NEMA 9 Division I Class II Groups E, F and G ratings, so it covers both flammable gas and combustible dust areas. It is also NEMA 1, 4 and 13 rated, which is why the same switch works on a washdown or oily machine in a general-purpose area. It is UL Listed and CE Marked.
2) Can I wire two separate circuits through this limit switch's NO and NC contacts?
Only if both circuits are the same polarity. The switch has a 1 N.O.-1 N.C. contact configuration, and when both circuits are used they must share polarity. Wiring is by screw terminal, so it lands standard field conductors without special tooling.
3) Do I have to order a clockwise or counterclockwise version of this Eaton rotary limit switch?
No. The side rotary mechanism is field convertible to CW or CCW operation, so one part covers either direction of travel and you can set it at the machine instead of stocking two switches.
4) Does the Eaton 10316H limit switch come with a lever arm?
The switch body is what ships; the actuating lever is a separate selection. For explosion-proof limit switches Eaton recommends Nylatron levers, so specify the lever arm and roller to match your travel and mounting when you order the switch.
5) Will this limit switch survive an outdoor conveyor in winter or a hot process area?
It is rated -20 F to 200 F, which covers most unheated plant and outdoor material handling work as well as hot process areas near ovens or steam lines. The die-cast aluminum enclosure plus NEMA 4 rating handles washdown and wet locations.
6) How much room do I need to mount the Eaton 10316H limit switch on a machine frame?
Allow for a body 3.08 in wide, 3 in deep and 5.35 in high, plus clearance for the lever swing and for the conduit entry and screw terminal wiring space.
7) What is the difference between the Eaton 10316H700 and the other 10316H limit switches?
The 10316H700 uses a die-cast zinc enclosure, while models such as 10316H2176 use die-cast aluminum. Other catalog numbers in the family, including 10316H1002, 10316H1004, 10316H1194 and 10316H2200, are separate configurations of the same side rotary switch, so order by the exact number that matches your original.
