Product Description
The Allen-Bradley 803-P8WX is a versatile, heavy-duty Style P rotating cam limit switch designed for machines with repetitive cycles and correlated motion. Featuring 8 circuits, a double shaft extension, and a Type 1 enclosure, it offers adjustable internal dwell and timing settings (configurable only when stopped) via an external adjustment sprocket that modifies the shaft/drive mechanism relationship. Its spring-loaded cam-roller assembly is mounted to the contact base, and the switch can be mounted on any plane. Key specifications include 25 Amp normally closed double break contacts, a maximum shaft speed of 400 RPM, a cam duration of 11-349 degrees, bidirectional rotation, shaft torques ranging from 0.5 to 7 inch-pounds depending on cam roller position, storage temperatures from -30 to 93C, operating temperatures from -30 to 66C, and a weight of approximately 30 pounds (13.6 kg).
Is Your Device Showing These Signs?
Allen Bradley 803-P8WX pushbuttons commonly exhibit issues such as contact degradation leading to signal failures, spring fatigue causing operational inconsistencies, and enclosure breaches resulting in environmental contamination. Operators report problems with the selector switch mechanism due to wear and tear, hindering proper circuit actuation. Terminal block corrosion is a frequent problem, disrupting electrical continuity and requiring immediate attention. Replacement of the entire unit becomes necessary when components reach end-of-life or suffer irreparable damage.

Our Repair Process for the
803-P8WX
Our repair process for Allen Bradley 803-P8WX pushbuttons begins with a comprehensive diagnostic assessment to pinpoint contact degradation, spring fatigue, enclosure breaches, selector switch malfunctions, and terminal block corrosion. Signal failures are addressed through meticulous contact cleaning, resurfacing, or component replacement, ensuring reliable signal transmission. Spring fatigue is rectified by replacing worn springs, restoring consistent operational performance. Enclosure breaches necessitate immediate sealing or enclosure replacement to prevent environmental contamination. Selector switch mechanisms are disassembled, cleaned, and repaired or replaced to guarantee proper circuit actuation. Terminal block corrosion is eliminated through thorough cleaning, terminal replacement, or wiring repair to re-establish electrical continuity. Units with end-of-life components or irreparable damage undergo complete replacement with new, fully tested Allen Bradley 803-P8WX pushbuttons.
