Ordering Information
Actuators (Sold Separately)
Actuators are supplementary components used when operating the Switch using cams or dogs or when transmitting mechanical movements that are not in alignment with the switch plunger.
The VAL models are suitable for cases where a Switch is operated by a rotary cam or sliding devices with relatively low operation frequency.
The VAM models are designed to operate in reverse movements and have high shock and vibration resistance. Since the Overtravel (OT) of these models is rather large, they can be used for automatic control or door switches of machining tools.
The VAV models can be used where a small Operating Force (OF) is required.
Separator (Sold Separately)
To ensure a secure insulation distance, or if there are other metal parts or copper wire installed too close to the Switch, use a separator purchased separately to keep the insulation distance.
