Safety Precautions
Be sure to read the precautions and information common to all Snap Action and Detection Switches, contained in the Technical User’s Guide,
“Snap Action Switches, Technical Information” for correct use.
Precautions for Safe Use
Terminal Connection
When soldering lead wires to the Switch, make sure that the capacity
of the soldering iron is 60 W maximum. Do not take more than 5 s to
solder any part of the Switch. The characteristics of the Switch will
deteriorate if a soldering iron with a capacity of more than 60 W is
applied to any part of the Switch for 5 s or more.
Operation

damage the Switch soon. If the switching frequency is too high,
the contact may not catch up with the speed.
The rated permissible switching speed and frequency indicate the
switching reliability of the Switch.
The life of a Switch is determined at the specified switching
speed. The life varies with the switching speed and frequency
even when they are within the permissible ranges. In order to
determine the life of a Switch model to be applied to a particular
use, it is best to conduct an appropriate durability test on some
samples of the model under actual conditions.

Mounting
Always make sure that the power is turned OFF before mounting,
removing, or wiring the Switch, or performing maintenance.
Electric shock or burning may occur.
Selecting Models
We recommend using Drip-proof Models (protection equivalent to
IP62) in locations subject to floating dirt and dust. Other models do
not have a protective structure.
Wiring
For wiring, use a wire size that is appropriate for the applied voltage
and the supplied current. When soldering the Switch, make sure that
the capacity of the soldering iron is 60 W maximum. Do not take
more than 5 s to solder any part of the Switch. Using the Switch with
incomplete soldering may result in errors and heat, which may cause
burning. The characteristics of the Switch will deteriorate if a
soldering iron with a capacity of more than 60 W is used or if any part
of the Switch is soldered for 6 s or longer.

The permissible ambient temperature depends on the model.
(Refer to the specifications in this catalog.) Sudden thermal
changes may cause thermal shock to distort the switch and result
in faults.

contact failure or faulty operation due to abrasion powder and in
reduced durability. Excessive vibration or shock will cause the
contacts to operate malfunction or become damaged. Mount the
switch in a location that is not subject to vibration or shock and in a
direction that does not subject the switch to resonance.
