Precautions

Cautions
Handling
Be careful not to drop the Switch. Doing so may cause damage to
the Switch's internal components because it is designed for a small
load.
Correct Use
Mounting
Use M3 mounting screws with plane washers or spring washers to
securely mount the Switch. Tighten the screws to a torque of 0.39 to
0.59 N S m {4 to 6 kgf S cm}.
Mounting Direction
For a Switch with an actuator, mount the Switch in a direction where
the actuator weight will not be applied to the Switch.
Since the Switch is designed for a small load, its resetting force is
small. Therefore, resetting failure may occur if unnecessary load is
applied to the Switch.
ALL DIMENSIONS SHOWN ARE IN MILLIMETERS.
To convert millimeters into inches, multiply by 0.03937. To convert grams into ounces, multiply by 0.03527.

Using Micro Loads
Using a model for ordinary loads to open or close the contact of a
micro load circuit may result in faulty contact. Use models that oper-
ate in the following range. However, even when using micro load
models within the operating range shown below, if inrush current oc-
curs when the contact is opened or closed, it may increase contact
wear and so decrease durability. Therefore, insert a contact protec-
tion circuit where necessary.
The minimum applicable load is the N-level reference value. This
value indicates the malfunction reference level for the reliability lev-
el of 60% (λ 60). The equation, λ 60 = 0.5 10
cates that the estimated malfunction rate is less than 1/2,000,000
operations with a reliability level of 60%.
