NOTES

1.Regarding fastening of switch body

In fastening the switch body, use ???at ???lister head M2.3 screws, with tightening torque of not more than 0.29N??m.To prevent loosening of the screws, it is recommended that spring washers be used with the screws and adhesive be applied to lock the screws.

After mounting the switch and making wiring connections, the insulation distance between ground and each terminal should be con???rmed as suf???cient.

The positioning of the switch should be such that the pushbutton or actuator for the switch should not directly apply force to the operating section in the free condition.For a pushbutton, the force from the pushbutton should be applied in a perpendicular direction.

In setting the movement after operation, the over-travel should be set not less than 70% as a standard.Setting the movement at less than 70% of O.T.may cause troubles such as mis-contact and welding due to small contact force of the switch.

2.Soldering operation

For manual soldering: 60W soldering iron, soldering completed within 3 seconds; do not apply force to the terminals.

For automatic soldering tank: 250??C immersion, completed within 6 seconds, 350??C immersion, completed within 3 seconds.

Terminal portions must not be moved in min.1 minute after soldering.Also no tensile strength of lead wires should be applied to terminals.

3.Regarding connector connections (.110 quick connect terminals)

For making connections, a dedicated receptacle for .110 quick connect terminals should be used, and the terminals should be inserted parallel to the receptacle.Consideration should be given to mounting so that no tensile load is applied to the lead wires.

4.In making the switch selection

Consideration should be given to provide for no interference up to +20% variation of the standard characteristics values.

5.Environment

6.Cautions regarding use

This subminiature switch has been designed as a dedicated switch for AC use, but it can be used for low capacity DC circuits.

Please select gold-clad contact types when loads are in the low-level area of 1mA up to 100mA and 5V up to 30V.

(Reference only)

For switching of inductive loads (relays, solenoids, buzzers, etc.), in order to prevent damage to contacts due to the occurrence of arcing, an arc absorbing circuit should be applied

7.Quality check under Actual Loading Condition

Locations where corrosive gases having a bad in???uence on contacts are present, and locations where there is an excessive amount of siliceous or other abrasive dust should be avoided.

To assure reliability, check the switch under actual loading conditions.Avoid any situation that may adversely affect switching performance.

8.When using lever type switch, care should be taken not to apply undue force on the body from the opposite side or side ways to its operating direction.
