Pendant Control Station
The Dayton 20C812 is a hand-held pendant control station designed for industrial equipment operation. It provides two momentary push-button operators with an up/down legend for directional control. The unit is built for operators who need a durable, hand-grip mounted interface.
NEMA 1 3 3R 4 4X Enclosure
The plastic yellow enclosure carries NEMA ratings 1, 3, 3R, 4 and 4X for protection against dust, rain, sleet and hose-directed water. A mechanical interlock prevents simultaneous activation of both operators. The station mounts via a 1/2 inch NPT hub on a hand grip or hanger.
10A 600V AC Contact Rating
Each of the two normally open contacts is rated for 10 amperes at 600 volts AC and 5 amperes at 600 volts DC under the A600/P600 designation. This rating determines whether the station can safely switch the intended control circuit load. The product carries cULus certification.

Questions about this item
How do I mount the pendant station and wire the 1/2 in. -14 NPT hub?
Mount the station using the built-in hand grip or hanger. Feed cables through the 1/2 in. -14 NPT hub, strip conductors to the length specified by the terminal block, and secure each wire under the correct 2NO contact screw — the step often missed is tightening the gland nut after wiring to maintain the NEMA 4X seal.
Which parts will need replacement after extended use?
The momentary push-button operators and the internal 2NO contact blocks are the wear items; each is rated for 10 A at 600 V AC and 5 A at 600 V DC, so plan to replace them when the contacts show pitting or the button action becomes inconsistent.
What is the first limitation I will hit during continuous operation?
The contact rating of 10 A at 600 V AC (5 A at 600 V DC) is the limiting factor; sustained loads above this will cause the contacts to overheat and fail before the plastic enclosure or mechanical interlock reaches any limit.
