Product Overview
GE CR2940UB200B - 3-Position Oil-Tight Selector Switch, Cam #2
Condition
This GE CR2940UB200B selector switch is new and unused, still in its original General Electric box. The box itself is rough from age: the top has been opened for these photos, one flap is torn, and a light ring stain marks one side panel. That kind of packaging wear is normal on surplus stock of this age and does not change the condition of the switch inside. The switch's mounting flange and center terminal screw show some surface discoloration. A factory poly bag inside the box holds the printed panel drilling and mounting instructions along with a locknut and a positioning ring.

Product Overview
The CR2940UB200B is a 3-position oil-tight selector switch from General Electric's CR2940 series, built for panel-mounted machine control where an operator needs a clear, tactile way to select between three positions. It uses a Cam #2 contact arrangement and mounts through a round two-hole flange secured by a knurled locknut, with a black knob operator and a bright metal lever visible through the bezel opening. The housing is oil-tight and heavy-duty, intended for industrial control panels exposed to coolant and oil mist. This is the switch operator itself, without separate contact blocks attached; the included poly bag holds the factory panel drilling and mounting instructions plus a locknut and positioning ring for installation.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's included with this GE CR2940UB200B?
You get exactly what's photographed: the CR2940UB200B switch operator with its black knob, the original GE box, and the factory poly bag holding the panel drilling and mounting instructions, a locknut, and a positioning ring. No separate contact blocks are included.
What does Cam #2 mean on this switch?
Cam #2 refers to the internal cam profile GE assigned to this switch's 3-position detent pattern. Not confirmed against a GE datasheet - verify cam timing against GE's CR2940 series documentation before use in a control scheme.
Is mounting hardware included?
Yes. The poly bag in the box holds a locknut and a positioning ring along with GE's printed panel drilling and mounting instructions, so you have what's needed to mount the switch into a panel cutout.
Does the rough box mean anything is wrong with the switch?
No. The switch is new and unused; the torn flap and ring stain are age on the cardboard, which is ordinary for surplus that has been sitting a long time. We photograph the box as it is so there are no surprises when it lands on your bench.
Why buy this one instead of a surplus lot?
This is a single, individually photographed CR2940UB200B, not a mixed pallet of unknown switches - what you see in the box is what ships. This item clears the free-shipping line on its own, and orders leave the Idaho warehouse the same or next business day.
General Electric built the CR2940 series oil-tight, for panels that took a splash of coolant and kept working. Wire this Cam #2 switch into your build and hand your machine that same three-position certainty.
