Characteristics
Note: The above figures are initial values.
*1. The values are calculated at an operating temperature of +5°C to +35°C, and an operating humidity of 40% to 70%RH. Contact your OMRON
sales representative for more detailed information on other operating environments.
*2. Except Switches with Flexible Rod Actuators.
*3. 500,000 operations min. for Weather-resistant models.
*4. In case of models without operation indicators.
*5. For low-temperature models this is -40°C to +40°C (with no icing). For heat-resistant models the range is +5°C to 120°C.
* Except models with operation indicators.
Circuit Configuration/Terminal Connection Diagram
Note: Leakage current from indicator circuit may cause load malfunction (i.e., the load may remain ON). Make sure that the load operating current
is higher than the leakage current.
For countermeasures, refer to technical support on your OMRON website.
* Light-ON when not operating means the operation indicator is lit when the actuator is free and is not lit when the actuator rotates or is pushed
down, and the Switch contacts contact to NO.
The above shows details of the switch interior. External wires (external resistances) are not shown. For details, refer to Operation on page 18.
