Product Overview
Reliability Nibs
Eaton’s contact blocks
feature enclosed silver
contacts with pointed
“reliability nibs” for reliable
performance from logic level
up to 600V. To ensure reliable
switching, nibs bite through
oxide which can form on silver
contacts, eliminating the
need for expensive logic level
blocks for most applications.
Reliability Nibs
Reliability nibs improve
performance in dry circuit,
corrosive, fine dust and other
contaminated atmospheres.
Under normal environmental
conditions, the minimum
operational voltage is 5V and
the minimum operational
current is 1 mA, AC/DC. For
operation under a wider range
of environmental conditions,
logic level contact blocks with
inert palladium tipped
contacts are recommended.
Grounding Nibs
10250T line operators have
“grounding nibs”—four
metal points on the operator
casting designed to bite
through most paints and
other coatings on metal
panels to enhance the ground
connection when the operator
is securely tightened.

Liquid Drainage
Eaton’s pushbutton operators
offer front of panel drainage
via holes in the operator
bushing. Hidden from view by
the mounting nut, these
holes prevent buildup of liquid
inside the operator, which
can prevent operation in
freezing environments.
The holes also provide a route
for escaping liquid in high
pressure washdowns,
effectively relieving pressure
from the internal diaphragm
seal, ensuring reliable sealing
in applications even beyond
NEMA 4.
