- New condition guarantees full mechanical integrity out of the box
12-inch rod lever actuator for E50 limit switches
The Eaton E50KL226 Cutler-Hammer rod lever actuator provides a 12-inch steel arm for E50-series limit switches. It is designed for industrial machinery where a long-reach rod actuator is required to trip the switch. The arm width measures 1.12 inches and the arm depth is 12 inches. This component suits maintenance engineers and OEMs fitting or replacing actuators on compatible E50 switch bodies.
Thermals noise and power draw
As a passive mechanical actuator, this rod lever generates no heat, draws no electrical power and produces no audible noise during operation. It transmits physical force to the limit switch mechanism without any active components. Thermal performance, acoustic signature and power consumption are therefore not applicable to this part.
Bundled accessories and software
The actuator is supplied as a single metal arm with no additional hardware, wiring, software or documentation included. It mounts directly to compatible E50 switch heads such as the E50AR16P or E50AR1. No configuration tools or firmware updates are required or provided. Buyers needing mounting brackets, alternative arm lengths or roller-tip variants must source those items separately.

Questions about this item
How do I install the 12 in steel arm on the E50AR16P limit switch, and what step is often missed?
Mount the rod lever actuator onto the E50AR16P switch body using the supplied hardware, ensuring the 1.12 in wide arm aligns with the operating head; the step often missed is verifying the 12 in arm depth clears surrounding machinery before final tightening.
What maintenance or replacement will the E50KL226 rod lever actuator need over time?
Inspect the steel arm periodically for bending or wear at the pivot point; replace the actuator if the 12 in arm shows deformation or if the mounting holes elongate, as no separate roller or bearing is present to service.
What is the first limit that appears when the 12 in rod lever actuator operates continuously?
The 12 in arm length and 1.12 in width create a fixed mechanical throw; under sustained cycling the pivot pin and mounting interface reach their fatigue limit before any electrical rating is exceeded.
