Burgess CT2D2-A2-UL Pushbutton Switch Plunger Actuator

The Burgess CT2D2-A2-UL is a compact snap-action microswitch with a plunger-style actuator, part of the Burgess/Saia‑Burgess line used for end-travel sensing and basic control tasks in machinery and appliances. It carries a 15 A current rating and supports voltages up to 125/250/480 VAC, with horsepower ratings of 1/8 HP at 125 VAC and 1/4 HP at 250 VAC, guiding its suitability for motors, solenoids, and resistive loads in small equipment or control panels. The plunger actuator provides direct mechanical actuation for straightforward interfaces, while the snap-action design promotes fast, reliable switching with minimal arcing. The CT2D2-A2-UL designation identifies a specific configuration within Burgess’ microswitch family; according to catalog references, this model has been discontinued by the manufacturer, which may affect replacement availability and compatibility with existing wiring or mounting patterns. When evaluating a replacement, verify the exact contact arrangement and terminal type against the original part to ensure a proper fit for your circuitry and enclosure.
