Square D 9007C68T5 Limit Switch Dpdt Nc Rotary Head IP66

Product Description

The SQUARE D 9007C68T5 is a general purpose industrial limit switch designed for position sensing and machine control applications. It features a double-pole, double-throw (DPDT) contact form with a normally closed (NC) configuration and a rotary head actuator mounted on the side of the metal body. Terminal connections are made via side screw terminals with a 1/2 in-14 NPT conduit entry. The switch carries an IP66 ingress protection rating, making it suitable for wet and dusty environments. It operates across a wide temperature range of -20 degrees F to 185 degrees F. Licensed electricians and industrial control technicians are the primary installers of this device.

This limit switch is used in industrial and commercial machine control systems where precise position detection is required. Typical applications include conveyor systems, material handling equipment, and automated machinery requiring reliable end-of-travel or door-position sensing. The rotary head actuator with side-entry conduit connection suits panel and machinery enclosure installations where conduit routing enters from the side. Its NEMA 1, 2, 4, 6, 6P, 12, and 13 ratings cover a broad range of indoor and outdoor industrial environments.

Key Features

• Metal body construction rated for NEMA 1, 2, 4, 6, 6P, 12, and 13 enclosure environments
• Wide operating temperature range from -20 degrees F to 185 degrees F
• RoHS compliant with UL Listed, CSA Certified, CE, and IEC certifications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct installation limit switch for industrial machine control systems requiring a DPDT NC rotary head side-actuator switch with 1/2 in-14 NPT conduit entry and NEMA 4 or IP66-rated protection.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with NFPA 70 (NEC) and applicable local codes. De-energize and lock out the machine control circuit before wiring or replacing the switch. Secure conduit connections at the 1/2 in-14 NPT entry to maintain the IP66 and NEMA ingress protection ratings. Verify actuator travel and contact operation before returning the machine to service.
