Issue:
Are the 2510K Manual switches suitable to be used on 50Hz applications?
Product Line:
NEMA and Definite Purpose Contactors and Starters
Environment:
NEMA Manual Starters and Switches
Resolution:
All testing and evaluation of these devices are performed at 60HZ. The device has no control coil so there is no problem in this area. In consideration of the load the power contacts would see, they are horsepower rated and follow the tables in UL 508 for determination of current at specific horsepower and voltage levels. As long as the horsepower rating and/or maximum continuous current rating (30 amps) is not exceeded, the devices should function acceptably.
