Structure and Nomenclature
Structure
Movable Plunger
Built-in Switch
· Switch cover ensures high insulation between the terminals
and die-cast. Double insulation means that grounding is
unnecessary. Meets EN standards.
· Prevents the movable piece from being pushed in too far, and
thereby contributes to a longer service life.
Die-cast Case
· Zinc die-cast case is anti-corrosive and tough.
Rubber cap (Material combining
HNBR and fluororubber)
· Improved oil resistance.
Wiring Ease
· Wiring made easier using
plug-in connectors.
Terminal Protection Cover
Degree of Protection
The D4ER-@N uses rubber seals to provide a protective structure for the charged parts to achieve an IP rating of IP67G* (JIS C 0920).
The charged parts in the switching section are sealed with the two rubber seals shown in figure 1. The charged parts in the terminal section are
sealed with the two rubber seals shown in figure 2.
Material combining HNBR and fluororubber with excellent resistance to oil is used for the rubber seals.

Safety Precautions
Refer to Safety Precautions for All Limit Switches on your OMRON website for general precautions.
Warning Indications
Precautions for
Safe Use
Supplementary comments on what to
do or avoid doing, to use the product
safely.
Precautions for
Correct Use
Supplementary comments on what to
do or avoid doing, to prevent failure to
operate, malfunction or undesirable
effect on product performance.
Precautions for Safe Use
• Protective structure
Do not use the product with degrade protective structure such as
swelling and crack in housing and/or sealing components.
Otherwise cutting oil or other substance may enter the product,
resulting in a risk of corruption or burning.
• Do not disassemble or remodel the switch in any case, or the switch
will not operate normally.
• The durability of the Switch greatly varies with switching conditions.
Before using the Switch, be sure to test the Switch under actual
conditions. Make sure that the number of switching operations is
within the permissible range.
• If an actuator is kept pressed for an extended period of time, the
actuator will deteriorate quickly and faulty reset of the Switch may
occur. Check the Switch periodically and replace it when
necessary.
Precautions for Correct Use
• The following conditions shall be observed if you use the product
under an environment using cutting oil that may affect product's life
and/or performance.
• Usage under the cutting oil condition designated by the
specification
• Usage under the cutting oil dilution ration recommended by its
manufacturer
• Usage in oil or water is prohibited
Impact on the product life may differ depending on the oil you use.
Before using the cutting oil, make sure that it should not cause
deterioration or degradation of sealing components.
• The D4ER-@@@@N-DTK1EJ can be used in conditions of cutting
oil use described in the specifications.
The oil resistance may not be ensured when the products are not
mated to XS5@R Connectors, so use the products correctly.
• When mating the products to XS2 or other M12 Connectors, tighten
the lock to a torque of 0.39 to 0.49 N-m.
• To protect the Switch from damage due to short-circuits, be sure to
connect a quick-response fuse with a breaking current 1.5 to 2
times larger than the rated current in series with the Switch.
• Do not connect lead wires directly to the terminals. Use crimp
terminals and attached them securely.
• The switch is intended for indoor use only.
Do not use the switch outdoor, or the switch will malfunction.
• Do not use the switch in the atmosphere of hazardous gases (H2S,
SO2, NH3, HNO3, Cl2, etc.) or high temperature and humidity, or it
will cause the imperfect closing of the contacts or the breakage
thereof stemming from corrosion.
• When storing the Switch, do not subject it to hazardous gases
(H2S, SO2, NH3, HNO3, Cl2, etc.), dust, dirt, high temperature,
or high humidity.
• Do not use the switch under any of the conditions mentioned
below.
• Locations subject to severe temperature changes
• Locations where the interior of a protective door may come
into direct contact with cutting chips, metal filings, or chemicals
• Locations subject to high humidity or condensation
• Locations subject to severe vibration
• Locations subject to detergents, thinners, or other solvents
• Locations where flammable or explosive gases are present
• If the Switch is not turned ON and OFF for an extended period of
time, contact oxidation may reduce the contact reliability. Continuity
failure may result in an accident.
• Do not drop the Switch. Doing so may prevent it from functioning to
its full capacity.
• Do not place an excessive load on the Switch.
• Be sure to keep the load current less than the rated value.
• Do not supply electric power when wiring. Otherwise electric shock
may result.
• Setting the stroke close to the operating position (OP) or releasing
position (RP) will cause unstable contact. If the full stroke is set to
the total travel position (TTP), the actuator or Switch may be
damaged due to the inertia of the dog. Therefore, adjust the stroke
with the mounting panel or the dog.
• The body of the Switch is protected from the ingress of dirt, water,
and other foreign matter, but the head is not protected from water
or fine foreign matter. You must take measures to prevent water
and fine foreign matter from entering the head. Not providing
sufficient protection may result in accelerated wear or damage.
• Perform inspections and tests to confirm the operating
characteristics, insulation resistance, dielectric strength, and
contact resistance of the Switch if it is left in a location that does not
meet the storage conditions, if it is subjected to condensation, if it
is dropped, or if it is stored for more than one year.
• The user of the system must not attempt to perform maintenance
and repairs. Contact the manufacturer of the system concerning
maintenance and repairs.

• Make sure that the dog does not strike the actuator of the Switch at
an angle. If a load is placed on the actuator at an angle, the actuator
may be deformed or damaged or the rotary shaft may be deformed
or damaged.
• Do not normally leave the Switch in oil or water. Water or oil may
enter the Switch.
• Perform scheduled, periodic inspections.
Handling
• Be sure to connect a fuse with a breaking current 1.5 to 2 times the
rated current to the Limit Switch in series in order to protect the
Limit Switch from damage due to short-circuiting. When using the
Limit Switch under the EN ratings, use a gI or gG 10-A fuse that
conforms to IEC 60269.
Mounting
• Use M4 screws to mount the Switch. Use washers or other means
to prevent the screws from becoming loose and tighten the screws
to a torque of 1.18 to 1.37 N·m.
Mounting Holes
Two, 4.3 dia. or M4 holes
33 ±0.15
Mounting pitch
• When mounting the panel mount-type Switch with screws on a side
surface, remove the hexagonal nuts from the actuator.
• When mounting the panel mount type on a panel, tighten the
hexagonal nuts of the actuator to a torque less than 7.85 N·m.
The two nuts can be attached at the top or bottom and from either
side.
Mounting Hole
14.5±0.2 dia.
• Operating method, shape of cam or dog, operating frequency, and
the overtravel (OT) have significant effect on the service life and
precision of the Limit Switch. Make sure that the shape of the cam
or dog is smooth enough.
• If the Limit Switch is used in a normally open condition (NO),
sufficiently press the actuator to 70% to 100% of the value specified
for the OT.
• Do not change the operating position by remodeling the actuator.
• Do not bend the cable to a radius that is smaller than 25 mm.
