TURQUOISE STROKE SWITCHES Long Stroke and Sliding Contact Construction Sealed Switches 13.3 5.4 10.1 (Unit: mm) RoHS compliant FEATURES TYPICAL APPLICATIONS • For pin plunger type, it maintains a long stroke OT (Over Travel) with over 2.2 mm on the NO side and over 2.5 mm on the NC side. • Since contact force does not depend on the operation stroke, the range of possible use over the entire stroke is greatly increased. • High contact reliability to support low level switching loads • Highly effective sealing for resistance against adverse environments • Silent operation with sliding contact • Automobiles (detection of door opening and closing and shift lever position, etc.) • Household appliances (vacuum cleaners, air conditioners, washing machines, etc.) ORDERING INFORMATION ASQ1 Size of mounting hole 0: Mounting hole 3 mm standard type 1: Mounting hole 3 mm without boss type 4: Right side pin type (solder terminal only) 5: Left side pin type (solder terminal only) 6: Right 2 boss type (solder terminal only) 7: Left 2 boss type (solder terminal only) Terminal 2: Wire leads right side type (SPST-NC and SPST-NO only) 3: Wire leads left side type (SPST-NC and SPST-NO only) Contact form 1: SPDT 2: SPST-NC 3: SPST-NO (wire lead type only) (wire lead type only) COM NO 4: Solder terminal 5: PC board terminal 7: PC board right angle terminal NC COM NC COM NO Actuator 0: Pin plunger 7: Leaf lever 8: Simulated leaf lever 6: Wire leads bottom type 8: PC board left angle terminal Note: Not every combination is available.

Therefore, be sure to keep within the conditions given below. Manual soldering: use soldering irons (max. 350°C, within 3 seconds at each terminal) capable of temperature adjustment. This is to prevent deterioration due to soldering heat. Care should be taken not to apply force to the terminals during soldering. (More than one second interval is required to apply heat at each terminal.) ■ Mounting Please avoid use in which load would be applied to the sides (hatch part (both sides) shown below) of the switch in the direction indicated by the arrows. This could cause erroneous operation. Also, when using a metal installation board, please make allowance for burr direction designation and burr suppressing, etc., so that the burr side will not be on the switch installation side. 1) To secure the switch, please use an M3 small screw on a flat surface and tighten using a maximum torque of 0.29 N·m. It is recommended that both flat metal washer and spring washers be used with the screws and adhesive be applied to lock the screws to prevent loosening of the screws. Please make sure not to apply adhesive onto the moving parts. 2) Be sure to maintain adequate insulating clearance between each terminal and ground. 3) Although it is possible to directly operate the pin plunger type from the lateral direction, please consult us if doing so. 4) After mounting please make sure no tensile load will be applied to the switch terminals. 5) Range of possible use: Please set the operation position to within the ranges in the following table so that there is sufficient insulation distance and to maintain contact reliability. Actuator Pin plunger Leaf lever Simulated leaf lever Actuator Pin plunger Leaf lever Simulated leaf lever Plunger/lever free From mounting From standoff boss and hole center line >9.2 mm >13.4 mm >10.7 mm >14.9 mm >13.5 mm ■ Environment 1) Although continuous operation of the switch is possible within the range of ambient temperature (humidity), as the humidity range differs depending on the ambient temperature, the humidity range indicated below should be used. Continuous use near the limit of the range should be avoided. 2) This humidity range does not guarantee permanent performance. >17.7 mm Humidity, %R.H. Plunger/Lever pushed From mounting From standoff boss and hole center line 7.8 to 5.9 mm 12.0 to 10.1 mm 8.4 to 6.2 mm 12.6 to 10.4 mm 11.1 to 8.7 mm 15.3 to 12.9 mm 6) PC board terminal type should be used if the products are to be soldered on the PC board. Solder terminal type is not for soldering on PC board. ■ Cautions regarding the circuit 1) In order to prevent malfunction in set devices caused by bounce and chattering during the ON-OFF switch operation, please verify the validity of the circuit under actual operating conditions and temperature range. 2) When switching inductive loads (relays, solenoids, buzzers, etc.), an arc absorbing circuit is recommended to protect the contacts. ■ Please verify under actual conditions. Please be sure to conduct quality verification under actual operating conditions in order to increase reliability during actual use. ■ Selection of switch Please make your selection so that there will be no problems even if the operating characteristics vary up to ±20% from the standard values. ■ Oil-proof and chemical-proof characteristics The rubber cap swells when exposed to oil and chemicals. The extent of swelling will vary widely depending on the type and amount of oil and chemicals. Check with the actual oil or chemicals used. In particular, be aware that solvents such as freon, chlorine, and toluene cannot be used. –9– 95 Acceptable range 50 (Avoid freezing when (Avoid used at temperatures condensation when lower than 0°C) used at temperatures higher than 0°C) 5 –40 0 Temperature, °C +85 ■ Other 1) Please remember that this switch cannot be used under water. Also, please be warned that switching and sudden temperature changes with the presence of water droplets can cause seepage into the switch. 2) Keep away from environments where silicon based adhesives, oil or grease are present as faulty contacts may result from silicon oxide. Do not use in areas where flammable or explosive gases from gasoline and thinner, etc., may be present. 3) When using the lever type, please be careful not to apply unreasonable load from the reverse or lateral directions of operation. 4) Do not exceed the total travel position (TTP) and press the actuator. This could cause operation failure. Also, when switching at high speed or under shock even within the operation limit, the working life may decrease. Therefore, please be sure to verify the quality under actual conditions of use. 5) Please make considerations so that the switch does not become the stopper for the moving part. 6) Please do not pull wire leads constantly.
