Eaton 10316H1097 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is the difference between the complete switch and the actuator-only version of the Eaton 10316 limit switch?
Two of the five actuator choices are roller lever, top right: 10316H119 is the complete switch, and 10316H145 is the actuator only. Order the complete switch if you are installing a new device. Order the actuator only if you already have the switch body in the panel and are replacing a damaged or wrong-style lever.
2) Which actuator styles can I get on the Eaton Type 10316 precision switch?
Five actuator styles: cross roller plunger (10316H1097), roller plunger (10316H1098), roller lever top right as a complete switch (10316H119), the same roller lever as actuator only (10316H145), and the cabinet door interlock actuator (10316H150). Plungers suit a cam or panel edge striking straight down the axis; the roller lever suits a door swinging past it; the interlock actuator is the one for cabinet door and enclosure panel interlock duty.
3) Can this Eaton limit switch break a 120V AC load directly, or do I need a relay?
It switches 120 Vac directly at 40 A make and 15 A break, so a contactor coil, solenoid, or small motor control circuit can land straight on the contacts. On DC it is far weaker: 0.5 A make and 0.5 A break at 120 Vdc. Any DC load above half an amp needs an interposing relay.
4) Does the Eaton 10316 have both normally open and normally closed contacts?
It carries a 1 NO-1 NC contact block, so you can run a closed-loop safety or interlock circuit off the NC side and a status or indicator feed off the NO side from the same switch.
5) How does the Eaton cabinet door interlock switch wire up, and does it take field wiring?
Terminations are screw terminals, so it is field wireable with standard stranded control wire and a screwdriver. No connector body or pigtail to match.
6) How much room do I need in the panel for the Eaton Type 10316 switch?
The switch measures .97 in wide, 2.19 in in length/depth, and 2.81 in in height. Allow clearance beyond that for the actuator travel on the roller lever versions, since the lever sweeps outside the body footprint.
7) What does the top right switch type mean when I order the roller lever version?
Top right describes the mounting orientation the lever is configured for, so the roller sits at the upper right of the body as installed. If your door or cam approaches from another direction, one of the plunger styles (cross roller plunger 10316H1097 or roller plunger 10316H1098) is the more direct fit, since a plunger takes the strike straight on rather than depending on lever orientation.
8) Will this switch hold up inside an industrial enclosure?
The actuator and housing are zinc-plated steel, which is the usual corrosion-resistant choice for panel interior and machine-guarding duty. It is a control-panel and enclosure-interior device, not a washdown or outdoor-rated one.
