Molded Terminal Models
■Model Number Legend
Molded Terminal Models
Items 1 (Actuator) and 2 (Rated Current) are the same as those in Standard Models.
3. Operation Indicator
None: Not provided
L: Neon Lamp: 90 to 250 VAC
L2: LED: 12 V
L3: LED: 24 V
L4: LED: 24 V
L5: LED: 48 V
4. Location of Lead Outlet
R: Right-hand
L: Left-hand
D: Underside
Use of the molded terminal model is recommended in locations subject to excessive dust, oil drips, or moisture.
All types of SHL Switches can be fabricated into a molded terminal version. In this case, the molded terminal model will have the same dimensions
an operating characteristics as the basic model from which the molded terminal model is fabricated.
Suffix by Location of Lead Outlet
Note: Three leads (COM, NO, and NC) are provided for terminal con-
nections.
Example:
Basic type: SHL-Q2255
Location of lead outlet: Right-hand
When placing your order for the above Switch specify the model
number as SHL-Q2255-MR
Lead Supplies
■Operation Indicator-equipped Models
UL, CSA and/or EN (IEC) approved models are available.
The molded terminal model may be equipped with an operation indicator (neon lamp or LED) upon request to facilitate maintenance and inspection.
The operation indicator is designed to illuminate when the Switch is not operating. (Because of the molded terminal model, any change to the
Switch wiring cannot be made.)
AC Operation
A neon lamp indicator is provided.
The operating voltage is 90 to 250 VAC.
Operating characteristics are the same as the basic model from
which the operation indicator equipped model is fabricated.
Dimension are the same as the standard model.
Example:
Basic type: SHL-Q2255-01MR
When placing your order for the molded terminal model with an neon
lamp operation indicator, specify the model number as SHL-Q2255-
01LMR.

DC Operation
LED indicator is provided.
As a rectifier stack is incorporated, into the unit and no directionality
exists for connection of + and –, this type can also be operated on
AC.
Voltage ratings of LED indicators are as shown in the table below.
The Switch case has a protrusion to facilitate visual confirmation of
LED indicator.
Example:
Basic type: SHL-Q2255-01MR
When placing your order for the molded terminal with an LED indica-
tor rated at 12 V, specify the model number as SHL-Q2255-01L2MR.
Contact Circuit
Precautions
■Correct Use
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 under the EN ratings, use a gI or gG 10-A fuse
that conforms to IEC260.
Handling
When detaching the Terminal Protective Cover, insert a screwdriver
and apply a force in the opening direction. Do not use excess force to
remove the cover. Doing so may cause deformation in the fitting sec-
tion and reduce the holding force.
When mounting the Terminal Protective Cover to the case, align the
cover on the case and then press the cover down to mount it firmly. If
the cover is pressed down in an inclined position, rubber packing will
deform and thus affect the sealing capability.
Mounting
Secure the Switch with two M4 screws and washers. The tightening
torque applied to each terminal must be 1.18 to 1.37 N·m. Tighten
the screws to the specified torque. An excessive tightening torque
may damage the Switch and cause a malfunction.
When mounting the panel mount-type Switch with screws on a side
surface, remove the hexagonal nuts from the actuator.
Mounting Holes
When mounting the panel mount type (SHL-Q55, SHL-Q2255, or
SHL-Q2155) on a panel, tighten the hexagonal nuts of the actuator to
a torque less than 7.84 N·m.
Tightening Torque
A loose screw may result in a malfunction. Be sure to tighten each
screw to the proper tightening torque as shown below.
When wiring, use M3 round solderless terminals and apply insulation
shielding to the connections. Tighten the terminals screws to 0.24 to
0.44 N·m.
Operating Stroke
Ensure that the operating stroke for roller plunger models is within
the set position display.

Switches
Micro Load Applicable Ranges
When using a Limit Switch for opening or closing micro-load circuit
(zones 1 through 3), contact failure may occur if a Limit Switch with
ordinary contact specifications is used. Therefore, when using Limit
Switches in the micro-load range, use ones with contact specifica-
tions that are suited to each zone.
Use the SHL-@-01 micro-load models within the zones (1 through 3)
shown in the following diagram.
The above diagram is for standard conditions (5°C to 35°C, 40% to
70%). Since the values vary depending on the operating environ-
ment conditions, contact your OMRON representative for further
details.
Others
The standard seal rubber for the lead wire outlet is one that allows 6-
to 8-dia. cables. The appropriate nominal cross-section of the lead
wire is 0.75 mm2. (When the sealing capability is required over a long
period of time, use mold specifications.)
