Industrial Limit Switch Head
The Eaton E50DS1 Cutler-Hammer limit switch head provides side-mounted plunger actuation for industrial control circuits. It is built for machinery builders and maintenance teams who need reliable position sensing in tough environments.
Replaces Worn Plunger Heads
This head fits E50SA switch bodies to restore function on existing installations without rewiring. The upgrade is worth it when the original actuator is damaged or when the application demands the listed NEMA and IP environmental ratings.
Practical Limits of Plunger Actuation
The 0.06 in actuator length and 0.065 in operating travel restrict use to short-stroke applications. CW and CCW movement with 2.2 N operating force suits light mechanical loads, while the 14 to 200 °F temperature range and IP67 sealing define the environmental envelope.

Questions about this item
What mounting style and actuator length does the E50DS1 limit switch head use?
The head mounts on the side with a plunger actuator that extends 0.06 in from the body.
How is the E50DS1 wired and what travel setting is critical?
Connect the switch to a compatible E50SA body; set the operating travel to 0.065 in so the contacts change state at the correct plunger depth.
Which seals and temperature range determine when to replace the E50DS1 head?
The IP67 and NEMA 1, 2, 4, 4X, 6P, 12, 13 ratings plus the 14 to 200 °F operating range define the sealing and thermal limits; replace the head if seals degrade or the plunger exceeds 0.25 in total travel.
