NOTES
1.Regarding fastening of switch body
In fastening the switch body, use flat filis-
ter head M2.3 screws, with tightening
torque of not more than 3 kg-cm.To pre-
vent loosening of the screws, it is recom-
mended that spring washers be used with
the screws and adhesive be applied to
lock the screws.
After mounting the s witch and making wir-
ing connectors, the insulation distance
between ground and each terminal
should be confirmed as sufficient.
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 condi-
tion.For a pushbutton, the force from the
pushbutton should be applied in a perpen-
dicular direction.
In setting the movement after operation,
the ov er-trav el should be set not less than
70% as a standard.Setting the mov ement
at less than 70% of O.T.may cause trou-
bles such as mis-contact and welding due
to small contact force of the switch.

2.Soldering operation

soldering completed within 3 seconds; do
not apply force to the terminals.
For automatic soldering tank: 250

pleted within 3 seconds.
Terminal portions must not be moved in
min.1 minutes after soldering.Also no ten-
sile strength of lead wires should be ap-
plied to terminals.
3.Regarding connector connections
(.110 quick connect terminals)
For making connections, a dedicated re-
ceptacle f or .110 quic k connect terminals
should be used, and the terminals should
be inserted parallel to the receptacle.Con-
sideration should be giv en to mounting so
that no tensile load is applied to the lead
wires.
4.In making the switch selection
Consideration should be giv en to provide
for no interference up to +20% v ariation of
the standard characteristics values.
5.Environment
Locations where corrosive gases having
a bad influence on contacts are present,
and locations where there is an excessive
amount of siliceous or other abrasive dust
should be avoided.
6.Cautions regarding use
This subminiatures switch has been de-
signed as a dedicated switch for AC use,
but it can be used for low capacity DC cir-
cuits.
Please select gold-clad contact types
when loads are in the low-level area of
1mA up to 100mA and 5V up to 30V.
For switching of inductive loads (relays,
solenoids, buzzers, etc.), in order to pre-
vent damage to contacts due to the occur-
rence of arcing, an arc absorbing circuit
should be applied
7.Quality check under Actual Loading
Condition
To assure reliability, check the switch un-
der actual loading conditions.Avoid any
situation that ma y adv ersely aff ect s witch-
ing 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 direc-
tion.
