Honeywell 2TL1-1

Honeywell Series TL Toggle Switch, 17mm Actuator Length, DPDT Contact Configuration - 2TL1-1

This toggle switch provides a compact, manually operated solution for controlling electrical circuits in industrial and commercial equipment. It offers a three-position on–off–on mechanism and is built for panel mounting via a bushing, making it suitable for installations where straightforward selection between two Active positions and a NEUTRAL off state is required. It is designed to function across a wide ambient temperature range and meets recognised safety approvals for professional use.

Features and Benefits:

• Double-pole double-throw contacts enable switching of two circuits simultaneously
  Rated for use up to 277V AC to handle higher-voltage control circuits
  Multiple contact current ratings support varied load requirements
  Screw terminals allow secure conductor connections for repeated servicing
  Long actuator provides tactile operation for gloved use
  Approved to industry standards for acceptance in regulated systems

Applications

• Suitable for control panels requiring dual-circuit selection
  Ideal for switching between alternate power sources in machinery
  Used with motor control circuits needing an off-centre position
  Can be used for test rigs that require frequent manual switching
  Suitable for retrofitting into industrial control enclosures

What mounting provision does it require for panel installation?

It installs through a 12.4mm panel cut-out and secures via its panel bushing for a flush fit.

How does it cope with temperature extremes in plant environments?

The switch is specified to operate across a range from −65°C up to 71°C to suit cold stores and warm machinery rooms.

Which Terminal style is provided for wiring connections?

Termination is by screw-type terminals to permit firm clamping of conductors and straightforward field maintenance.

How many poles and throws are present and what does that mean functionally?

It is a DPDT device, allowing two independent circuits to be toggled between two outputs with a central off position.

What physical width should be allowed for panel spacing considerations?

The switch has an overall width of 33.5mm which should be considered when laying out adjacent components.
