High performance and excellentcharacteristics.An AH7 snap action switch is used in theswitch body and since the installationframe is made of molded plastic,dimensional accuracy is now on a newlevel.2. Two series: push type and lock typeLock type also available that locks whenrotated.3. Six push-button colorsYou can use colors in accordance withsequence functions.4. The switch body uses an AH7 snapaction switch (O.F. 3.92 N max. type).Also, if dirt and water resistantproperties are required of the internalswitch, a V type turquoise switch(sealed type snap action switch) canbe built in. Please inquire.PRECAUTIONS WHENUSING CADMIUM-FREECONTACT TYPEModels with cadmium-free contacts havebeen introduced in order to reduceenvironmentally harmful substances. (“F”is affixed to the end of the part number.)We ask customers who are currentlyusing products with cadmium-containingcontacts (no “F” at the end of the partnumber) to please make the switch tomodels with cadmium-free contacts.When switching, operating life may differdepending on the load. Please be sure toverify this by conducting an evaluationusing actual equipment.Push type Lock type12 dia.RoHS Directive compatibility informationhttp://www.nais-e.com/All Rights Reserved © COPYRIGHT Matsushita Electric Works, Ltd.
