Product Description
The Cutler-Hammer® HT800 Series
from Eaton’s electrical business is a
family of 30.5 mm pushbutton devices
which includes momentary, illuminated and mushroomhead pushbuttons, selector switches, indicating
lights and push-pull switches. The
HT800 devices have a familiar appearance found in most industrial applications and are suitable for replacement
of several other manufacturers’ 30.5
mm pushbutton devices.
