Emergency cable pull switch
The Appleton Century Crofts emergency cable pull switch is a maintained-function safety device rated for 15 A across AC voltages from 120 V to 600 V. It suits industrial environments needing a robust, NEMA 12, 3, 4 and 4X rated switch with dual cable connection points.
Sustained load behaviour
Under continuous operation the switch carries its full 15 A thermal rating without derating, and the maintained contact stays latched until the actuator is deliberately reset. The 15 lb operating force and 200 ft maximum cable span remain consistent over repeated cycles.
Pre-order checks
Verify that the 16.7 in length, 11.0 in width and 7.7 in depth fit your enclosure and that the left-and-right cable entry matches your pull-cable routing. Confirm the 1NO/1NC contact form and 0.4 A at 230 V DC or 0.8 A at 115 V DC ratings meet your control-circuit requirements.

Questions about this item
How much heat or noise does the AFU0333-55 produce during continuous operation?
The switch is a passive mechanical device with no fan or active electronics, so it generates no audible noise and negligible heat under its 15 A thermal rating.
What wiring and mounting hardware must I already have to install this double-end cable pull switch?
You need a compatible cable up to 200 ft span, left and right connection points rated for 15 A at up to 600 V AC, and a NEMA 12/3/4/4X enclosure opening for the 16.7 × 11.0 × 7.7 in body.
Will the AFU0333-55 work alongside an older 120 V control circuit I want to keep?
Yes, the contacts are rated 15 A @ 120 V AC and 0.8 A @ 115 V DC, so they can switch the legacy circuit directly within those limits.
