FEATURES
TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
• Miniaturization achieved with
changing from 1 Form C to 1 Form A
or 1 Form B contacts.
(For the terminal type, volume has
been cut 45% compared to our
previous product.)
• Lever installation possible while
being miniature.
Operation possible in various moving
parts such as metal cams.
• Contact pressure does not depend
on the operation stroke.
• High contact reliability to support
low level switching loads.
• Highly effective sealing for resistance against adverse environments.
(IP67)
• Silent operation with sliding contact.
• Automobiles (detection of door
opening and closing, shift lever
position, etc.)
• Household appliances (vacuum
cleaners, air conditioners, washing
machines, etc.)

CAUTIONS FOR USE
1. Soldering conditions
• The application of excessive heat upon
the switch when soldering can cause
degradation of switch operation.
Therefore, be sure to keep within the
conditions given below.
• Manual soldering: Use soldering irons
(max. 350°C, within 3 seconds) 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.)
2. Mounting
• To secure the wire leads type switch,
please use M3 small screws on a flat
surface and tighten using a maximum
torque of 0.29 N·m.
Be sure to verify the quality under actual
conditions of use because the switch
plastic might be deformed according to
that the kind of the screw (size of screw
head etc.), the diameter of the washer
and the presence of washer. And use of
adhesive lock is recommended to prevent
loosening of the screws. When using an
adhesive, care should be taken not to
invade the adhesive into the switches.

• Be sure to maintain adequate insulating
clearance between each terminal and
ground.
• The positioning of the switch should be
such that direct force is not applied to the
plunger or actuator in its free position.
The operating force to the plunger should
only be applied in a perpendicular
direction.
• Although it is possible to directly
operate the pin plunger type from the
lateral direction, please consult us if
doing so.
• After mounting please make sure no
pulling load will be applied to the switch
terminals.

3. Cautions regarding the circuit
• 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.
• When switching inductive loads (relays,
solenoids, buzzers, etc.), an arc
absorbing circuit is recommended to
protect the contacts.
4. Please verify under actual
conditions.
• Please be sure to conduct quality
verification under actual operating
conditions in order to increase reliability
during actual use.
5. Switch selection
• Please make your selection so that
there will be no problems even if the
operating characteristics vary up to ±20%
from the standard values.
7. Operation environment
• 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.
This temperature-humidity range does
not guarantee permanent performance.

6. 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.
Please contact ..........
8. Others
• Please remember that this switch
cannot be used under water. Also,
pleased be warned that switching and
sudden temperature changes with the
presence of water droplets can cause
seepage into the unit.
• 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.
• When using the lever type, please be
careful not to apply unreasonable load
from the reverse or lateral directions of
operation.
• Do not exceed the total travel position
(T.T.P.) 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.
• Please make considerations so that the
switch does not become the stopper for
the moving part.
• Please do not constantly apply a tensile
load to wire leads when fixing them.
