Bulletin 802X

The Allen-Bradley Bulletin 802X is a family of watertight, hazardous-location limit switches designed for demanding industrial and process environments where reliable mechanical position sensing is required. The catalog number breaks down as follows: the prefix 802X designates the watertight/hazardous-location series; the letter(s) immediately following identify the actuator or head type — for example, A for rotary lever arm, B for wobble stick, C, H, K, L, and NP for various head configurations; the trailing numeric characters specify the contact arrangement and electrical rating; and an optional suffix such as W1 or W2 denotes wiring or conduit entry variations. Notable in-stock models include the 802X-A27, a rotary lever arm variant rated for low-limit operation down to −46 °C, and the 802X-H7W1 and 802X-AM7W2, which offer alternative conduit entry options for hazardous-location installations. With 37 configurations available, the 802X family covers a broad range of actuator styles and electrical specifications for position-sensing applications in wash-down, outdoor, and classified-area installations.
