Industrial limit switch for position sensing

The Dayton 13F515 is a plunger-style limit switch designed for industrial electrical controls and automation. Its top-mounted actuator and SPDT contact form make it suitable for detecting mechanical position or end-of-travel in machinery and equipment. The switch mounts via stem or surface for flexible installation in control panels or on machine frames.

Rated 5 A at 240 V AC with NEMA 13 3 4 enclosure

The switch carries a 5 A contact rating at 240 V AC and has no DC rating, so it is limited to alternating-current control circuits. Its NEMA 13 3 4 rating provides protection against dust, spraying water and oil, allowing use in demanding indoor environments. The screw-terminal connections ensure secure wiring for reliable operation.

Compact micro body with no boot seal

The micro-style body measures 1.27 in high, 2.29 in wide and 0.71 in deep, fitting into tight spaces where larger switches cannot. The absence of a boot-sealed actuator means the plunger is exposed, so the switch is not suited for applications requiring a sealed actuator against heavy contamination. California Proposition 65 warnings apply for cancer and reproductive harm.

Questions about this item

Will the 5 A 240 V AC rating on this SPDT plunger switch match the load on my existing relay coil?

The switch is rated 5 A at 240 V AC only; it carries no DC rating, so verify your relay coil voltage and current against those limits before wiring it in series.

How can I confirm the plunger is actuating correctly once installed?

Operate the machine through its full travel; you should hear a crisp snap at the top-mounted plunger and measure continuity toggling between the common and each throw terminal.

Does the box include mounting hardware or must I supply my own stem-mount brackets?

The switch body is the only item supplied; stem-mount brackets, screws and wiring terminals are not included and must be sourced separately.
