Selector switch for 30 mm panel cut-out
The Dayton 30G297 is a non-illuminated selector switch designed for a standard 30 mm mounting hole. It provides two maintained positions with a lever operator finished in black plastic and a silver bezel. The unit carries NEMA 13, 4 and 4X ratings plus IP65 ingress protection, making it suitable for industrial control panels and machinery interfaces.
Maintained two-position action with Cam E switching
Both switch positions are maintained, so the lever stays where it is moved until deliberately changed. The internal Cam E mechanism delivers an XO contact state in position A and an OX state in position B, giving a clean break-before-make sequence for the single normally-open and normally-closed contact block. This behaviour supports reliable changeover control in sustained-operation scenarios such as motor starters or process-select panels.
Rated 10 A at 600 V AC with sealed construction
The contact block is rated for 10 A at 600 V AC and 2.5 A at 600 V DC under NEMA A600/Q600 designation. The all-plastic operator head and bezel, combined with the IP65 seal, resist dust, oil and water jets without additional enclosures. No moving parts are exposed, so the switch runs silently and draws no power of its own, leaving thermal load entirely to the downstream circuit it controls.

Questions about this item
Does the 30 mm selector switch generate noticeable heat or noise when powered continuously at 10 A?
The switch is a passive electromechanical device with no moving parts that produce sound; it dissipates minimal heat at its rated 10 A @ 600 V AC.
What mounting cut-out and panel thickness are required to install this 30 mm operator?
It fits a standard 30 mm panel cut-out; the plastic bezel and body secure with a lock nut for typical industrial panel thicknesses.
Will the A600/Q600 contact rating work with legacy 600 V DC control circuits rated at 2.5 A?
Yes, the NEMA Q600 designation covers 2.5 A at 600 V DC, matching older DC control gear directly.
