Applications / Use Case

The Allen Bradley 802T-W12A limit switch lever serves critical functions in automated machinery and industrial control systems where precise position detection is required. Common applications include conveyor systems where the roller detects package presence or position along the material handling path. Manufacturing assembly lines utilize this lever for part verification, ensuring components are correctly positioned before automated operations proceed. In packaging equipment, the 802T-W12A monitors gate positions, carriage locations, and product flow. Process industries deploy these levers in valve position indication and actuator feedback systems. The roller design proves particularly valuable in applications involving continuous or frequent contact with moving machinery components, as it reduces mechanical stress compared to fixed-contact levers. The compact dimensions allow integration into space-constrained machine designs while maintaining accurate actuation. Machine tool applications benefit from the lever's reliability in detecting workpiece presence, tool positioning, and safety guard status. The four-position mounting capability enables engineers to optimize switch orientation for specific machine geometries, simplifying installation and maintenance procedures across diverse industrial automation platforms.
