About Honeywell Limit Switch 14CE2-1
Honeywell Limit Switch 14CE2-1 Series compact enclosed switches incorporate fluorocarbon diaphragm sealing to provide reliable protection, meeting IP65, IP66, IP67, and IP68 as well as NEMA 1, 2, 3, 3R, 4, 6, 6P, and 13 requirements. Honeywell Limit Switch 14CE2-1 Versions with a boot seal also meet NEMA 12 requirements (dust, falling dirt, liquid media with solid contaminates). The cable or connector and basic switch terminals are encapsulated in an epoxy sealant, offering excellent resistance in harsh environments. For low temperature applications (down to -40 C, -40 F), CE Series switches can be supplied with low temperature seals and lubricant.
