Product description

The Allen Bradley 802T-WS is an oiltight limit switch characterized by its "cat whiskers" or flexible spring-wire actuator. It typically includes a 1NO/1NC (SPDT) contact configuration, suitable for detecting objects or positions with a gentle touch.

This type of actuator is ideal for applications where objects may approach the switch from various angles or where a light actuation force is required. Common uses include conveyor systems, packaging equipment, and machine tools where precise, yet flexible, position sensing is needed.
