Allen-Bradley HL Selector Switches Installation Instructions
Allen-Bradley HL Selector Switches are designed for use in NEMA Type 7 and 9 enclosures. They offer robust construction for demanding environments and are compatible with a range of panel sizes. The switches feature a locking screw for secure mounting and adjustable nut for precise positioning. They are suitable for both new installations and replacement applications.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 800HL-EMP POTENTIOMETER
FOR NEMA TYPE 7 [3/8" (9.5) TO 2-1/2" (50.8) PANELS]
AND TYPE 9 [7/32" (7.2) TO 2-1/2" (50.8) PANELS] Ä
Installation: See Figure 1 for illustrated assembly.
1. Place securing ring and/or adjusting nut as supplied on unit and thread unit into panel until bushing extends
approximately 11/32" (8.7) [4 to 5 threads], past front of panel - 9/32" (7.1) [3 to 4 threads] if a legend plate is not to be
used, see Figure 3.
2. To secure unit, rotate to a position which provides electrical clearance and tighten adjusting nut and/or locking screw.
Where two units are mounted adjacently, arrange securing rings to avoid interference.
4. Place legend plate, if to be used, over mounting bushing.
5. Assemble mounting ring adapter and tighten.
6. Rotate shaft counterclockwise to stop.
7. Position knob on shaft aligning white indexer on knob with "min." increment marking on legend plate.
8. Tighten the two set screws in the knob to 4 ± ½ lb.-in. with a 1/16" (1.6) hex wrench.
9. Install mounting ring and tighten. Allen-Bradley Catalog No. 800T-N3 wrench is available for this operation.
Replacing Potentiometer: See Figure 3 for illustrated assembly.
NOTE 1: Refer to nameplate on housing for original potentiometer resistance.
NOTE 2: Unit need not be removed from enclosure to replace potentiometer.Potentiometer Removal:
1. Remove the two screws on the rear of the housing and pull the housing (see Figure 3) from the bushing.
2. Disconnect the three wire leads from the potentiometer terminals.
3. Loosen the two set screws in the shaft adapter with a 1/16" (1.6) hex wrench and remove shaft adapter from
potentiometer shaft.
4. Remove nut, lockwasher and mounting plate.
Potentiometer Installation:
1. Remove mounting ring leaving mounting ring adapter in place. Allen-Bradley Catalog No. 800T-N3 wrench is available
for this operation.
2. Loosen the two set screws in the knob with a 1/16" (1.6) hex wrench and remove knob.
3. Rotate shaft so that it extends .40 ± .01 (10.2 ± .2) from bushing.
4. Before installing potentiometer bend the three terminals 80° -90° and remove nut and lockwasher from bushing (see
Figure 2).
5. Install mounting plate, printed side facing outward, over potentiometer shaft aligning locating tab on potentiometer
with slot in mounting plate.
6. Tighten nut and lockwasher on potentiometer shaft and bend locating tab to fit mounting plate.
7. Insert wire leads onto the potentiometer terminals making sure the leads identified as 1, 2 and 3 are attached to the
correspondingly identified potentiometer terminals. (See Figure 3 for terminal identification.) If the potentiometer
housing does not have wires with terminal lugs, cut and strip the wires and solder the wire end to the appropriate
potentiometer terminal.

Frequently Answers and Questions
What are the panel sizes compatible with this switch?
This switch is compatible with NEMA Type 7 panels ranging from 3/8” (9.5) to 2-1/2” (50.8) and Type 9 panels ranging from 7/32” (7.2) to 2-1/2” (50.8).
How to replace a potentiometer?
To replace a potentiometer, you need to follow a multi-step process, including removing the housing, disconnecting the wires, loosening set screws, and removing the shaft adapter. Then, install a new potentiometer, aligning the tabs, tightening the nut and lockwasher, connecting the wires, and reassembling the housing. You can find detailed instructions in the viewed document.
How to tighten the locking screw?
The locking screw should be tightened to 4 ± ½ lb.-in with a 1/16” (1.6) hex wrench.
