Safety Precautions
■ Precautions for Correct Use
Electrical Standards
Handling
All Use the Switch within the rated voltage and current ranges, otherwise the Switch may have a shortened life expectancy, radiate heat,
or burn out. This particularly applies to the instantaneous voltages
and currents when switching.
1. Usage Environment
Before installing the Switch, make sure that the area of installation is
not subject to corrosive gases emitted from surrounding parts.
Soldering
Do not use in areas subject to high temperatures, high humidity, or
toxic gases such as sulfuric gas (H2S, SO2), ammonia gas (NH3),
nitric gas (HNO3), or chlorine gas (CI2). It can cause
1. Soldering Precautions
• Before any kind of soldering, test to confirm that soldering can
be performed properly. Otherwise the Switch may be deformed
by the soldering heat depending on the type of PCB, pattern, or
lands of the PCB.
• Do not solder the Switch more than twice, including rectification
soldering. Wait for at least five minutes between the first and
second soldering to allow the temperature to return to normal.
Continuous soldering may cause the casing to melt or deteriorate the Switch characteristics.
2. Automatic Soldering Baths (Wave Soldering)
• Soldering temperature: 260°C max.
• Soldering time: 5 s max. for a 1.6-mm thick single-side PCB
• Preheating temperature: 100°C max. (ambient temperature)
• Preheating time: Within 60 s
• Precautions
Make sure that no flux will rise above the level of the PCB.
Also make sure that flux is not applied to the switch terminals or
to the mounting surface of the PCB. If flux overflows onto the
mounting surface of the PCB, it may enter the Switch and cause
a malfunction.
3. Manual Soldering
• Soldering temperature: 350°C max. at the tip of the soldering
iron
• Soldering time: 3 s max. for a 1.6-mm thick, single-side PCB
corrosive damage to the contacts and result in malfunction. If there is
silicon in the atmosphere, it may stop the contacts from functioning
properly.
If silicon products, such as silicon oil, silicon filler, or silicon wires, are
used in the surrounding area, install a contact protection circuit to
prevent arching or remove the silicon source.
The following situations may cause water to enter inside the Switch,
resulting in a malfunction due to contact failure or corrosion.
• Using the Switch in an outdoor environment where it is exposed
to water drops for an extended period of time.
• Using the Switch in an underwater setting where it is subject to
strong water pressure.
Do not use Switches that have been dropped. The mating section or
other internal parts may be damaged, resulting in malfunction.
Operation
Do not repeatedly operate the Switch with excessive force. Applying
excessive pressure or applying additional force after the plunger has
stopped may deform the disk spring of the Switch, resulting in malfunction.
Be sure to set up the Switch so that the plunger will operate in a
straight vertical line.
If the plunger is pressed off-center or from an angle it may cause
deformation or damage to some parts. This may result in deterioration of durability or malfunction.
• Precautions: Before soldering the Switch on a PCB, make sure
that there is no unnecessary space between the Switch and the
PCB.
Washing
Since Illumination part and actuation part are not sealed, switch cannot be washed. Doing so will cause the washing agent, together with
flux or dust particles on the PCB, to enter the Switch, resulting in
malfunction.
PCBs
The Switch is designed for a 1.6-mm thick, single-side PCB. Using
PCBs with a different thickness or using double-sided, through-hole
PCBs may result in loose mounting, improper insertion, or poor heat
resistance in soldering. These effects will occur, depending on the
type of holes and patterns of the PCB.
Therefore, it is recommended that a verification test is conducted

263
Removing the Cap - Text Film Installation
Dust Protection
1. Hold the cap at the side away from the mating section. Pull
straight up.
2. Do not remove the cap while the Switch is mounted. Doing so
will apply force to the soldered section and LEDs, resulting in
malfunction.
Although the switching mechanism is a sealed structure (IP64), illumination part and actuation part is not sealed. Ensure you have the
correct environmental conditions for installation. Use a protective
sheet or take other measures to protect against dust.
Sensitivity to Static Electricity
Switches with high-brightness green (HG) or blue (B) LEDs are susceptible to static electricity. Take care when handling switches with
these LEDs as the LEDs may be damaged.
Storage Precautions
Storage Environment
Correct
To prevent degradation, such as discoloration, of the terminals during
storage, do not store the Switch in locations that are subject to the
following conditions.
Incorrect
Placing the Cap on the Switch
Hold the Cap at the side away from the mating section. Push straight
down until the mating section meets.
1. High temperature or humidity
2. Corrosive gases
3. Direct sunlight
Storage condition
Store the Switches in the packaging box.
After the packaging box is opened, use the contents as quickly as
possible. When storing leftover parts, make sure that appropriate
measures are taken against humidity and corrosive gases.
Agreement of Product Use
Comply with the usage, storage, and disposal conditions specified by
OMRON as outlined in the precautions in the product datasheet and
specifications.
Correct
Be sure to read the precautions common to all Tactile Switches, contained in the Technical User’s Guide, “Tactile Switches, Technical
Information” for correct use
Incorrect
Removing the Cap
The Cap can be removed up to two times. Excessively removing the
Cap will cause the mating section to become weak, resulting the
operating section not mating completely or the Cap may fall off.
Film Dimensions
Dimensions of the film are shown below. The thickness is 0.2 mm.
