AutomationDirect GCX1251-120 Maintained Selector Switch

GCX1251-120 is AutomationDirect’s 22 mm metal selector switch, a maintained two-position device with incandescent illumination and a red operator. Designed for panel mounting, it features a metal base and bezel, a round 30 mm plastic knob, and a 22 mm barrel that fits standard 22 mm openings. The switch provides a single normally open contact and is rated for 120 VAC or 120 VDC at full voltage, with incandescent illumination to indicate when the switch is in the active position. It carries an IP65 protection rating for dust and water ingress when installed, making it suitable for harsh industrial environments. This GCX1251-120 assembly is typically paired with an ECX1040-2 contact block and ships with an indicator; it is part of AutomationDirect’s GCX 22 mm metal illuminated selector switches family. Compliance notes include UL Recognized (E189258), RoHS compliance, and CE declarations, with origin listed as Italy. The compact form factor, robust metal construction, and clear red indication help operators reliably signal the switch state in control panels and machines where visibility and durability matter.
