General-purpose Basic Switch
X
CSM_X_DS_E_4_3
Direct Current Switch with
Built-in Magnetic Blowout
• Incorporates a small permanent magnet in the contact
mechanism to deflect the arc to effectively extinguish
it.
• Same shape and mounting procedures as the Z Basic
Switches.
Be sure to read Safety Precautions on page 9 and Safety
Precautions for All Basic Switches.

Accessories (Order separately)
A Terminal Protective Cover, Actuators, and a Separator are available.
Terminal Covers (Sold Separately)
Separator (Sold Separately)
The Terminal Covers can be attached to Z, A, X, and DZ Switches.
The Terminal Cover is secured with mounting screws and protects the casing and terminal wires
from dust, vibration, or fingers, thus preventing terminal short-circuiting, ground faults, wire
disconnection or improper connection, and electric shock accidents.
Terminal Covers made of phenol resin have five or six thin wall sections. These sections can be
torn open for providing holes for lead cables at desired points.
A terminal cover can’t be used in the case of using an actuator sold separately.
Use a Separator when it is difficult to
provide a sufficient insulation distance or
when using the Switch near metal parts or
copper wires.

Safety Precautions
Refer to Safety Precautions for All Basic Switches.
• Mount a cover if the switch is to be installed in a location where
worker inattention could result in incorrect operation or accidents.
Precautions for Safe Use
Terminal Connection
Operation
• Make sure that the switching frequency or speed is within the
specified range.
1.If the switching speed is extremely slow, the contact may not be
switched smoothly, which may result in a contact failure or
contact welding.
2.If the switching speed is extremely fast, switching shock may
damage the Switch soon. If the switching frequency is too high,
the contact may not catch up with the speed.
The rated permissible switching speed and frequency indicate the
switching reliability of the Switch.
The life of a Switch is determined at the specified switching speed.
The life varies with the switching speed and frequency even when
they are within the permissible ranges. In order to determine the
life of a Switch model to be applied to a particular use, it is best to
conduct an appropriate durability test on some samples of the
model under actual conditions.
• Make sure that the actuator travel does not exceed the permissible OT
position. The operating stroke must be set to 70% to 100% of the rated OT.
Mounting Location
• Do not use the switch alone in atmospheres such as flammable or
explosive gases. Arcing and heat generation associated with
switching may cause fires or explosions.
• Switches are generally not constructed with resistance against
water. Use a protective cover to prevent direct spraying if the switch
is used in locations subject to splashing or spurting oil or water, dust
adhering.
Incorrect
Correct
Terminal box
• Install the switch in a location that is not directly subject to debris
and dust from cutting. The actuator and the switch body must be
protected from accumulated cutting debris and dirt.
Incorrect
(preventing malfunctions)
• Subjecting the switch to continuous vibration or shock may result in
contact failure or faulty operation due to abrasion powder and in
reduced durability. Excessive vibration or shock will cause the
contacts to operate malfunction or become damaged. Mount the
switch in a location that is not subject to vibration or shock and in a
direction that does not subject the switch to resonance.
• If silver contacts are used with relatively low frequency for a long
time or are used with microloads, the sulfide coating produced on
the contact surface will not be broken down and contact faults will
result. Use a microload switch that uses gold contacts.
• Do not use the switch in atmospheres with high humidity or heat or in
harmful gases, such as sulfide gas (H2S, SO2), ammonia gas (NH3),
nitric acid gas (HNO3), or chlorine gas (Cl2). Doing so may impair
functionality, such as with damage due to contacting faults or corrosion.
• The switch includes contacts. If the switch is used in an atmosphere
with silicon gas, arc energy may cause silicon oxide (SiO2) to
accumulate on the contacts and result in contact failure. If there is
silicon oil, silicon filling, silicon wiring, or other silicon products in the
vicinity of the switch, use a contact protection circuit to limit arcing
and remove the source of the silicon gas.
Handling
Precautions for Correct Use
Terminal box
Correct
Incorrect
When soldering lead wires to the Switch, make sure that the capacity
of the soldering iron is 60 W maximum. Do not take more than 5 s to
solder any part of the Switch. The characteristics of the Switch will
deteriorate if a soldering iron with a capacity of more than 60 W is
applied to any part of the Switch for 5 s or more.
Correct
• Set the common (COM) terminal to the positive terminal. If it is set
to the negative terminal, the Switch will not turn OFF.
• When using the Switch under an inductive load, the arc
suppression capability varies depending on current. If the current
becomes 0.6 to 1.2 A or of the time constant L/R exceeds 7 ms, be
sure to provide an arc suppressor.
• Since the Switch incorporates a permanent magnet, attention must
be paid to the following points:
(a) Avoid mounting the Switch directly onto a magnetic substance.
(b) Do not subject the Switch to severe shocks.
(c) Avoid placing the Switch in a strong magnetic field.
(d) Be sure to prevent iron dust or iron chips from adhering to the
built-in magnet or the magnetic blowout function of the Switch
will be adversely affected.
(e) Do not apply thermal shock to the Switch, or the magnetic flux
will be diminished.
• Since a ventilation hole is provided to avoid abnormal corrosion due
to operating conditions, provide a dustproofing device in locations
where the Switch is exposed to dust.
• Do not change operating positions for the actuator. Changing the
position may cause malfunction.
Wiring
• Do not use the switch in locations subject to hot water (greater than
60°C) or in water vapor.
• Do not use the switch outside the specified temperature and atmospheric conditions.
The permissible ambient temperature depends on the model. (Refer to the
specifications in this catalog.) Sudden thermal changes may cause thermal
shock to distort the switch and result in faults.
Incorrect
Correct
Separate the
installation location from
heat sources.
• Use wire sizes that are suitable to the applied voltage and carried current.
• If you use a soldering iron to solder the wires, do not allow the tip of
the soldering iron to exceed 380°C. If a Switch is used with
insufficient soldering, abnormal heat and burning may occur.
• Solder for no more than 5 s at 350°C and for no more than 3 s at
380°C. If heat is applied for too long, the case may melt, the lead
wire coverings may be scorched, and other characteristics of the
Switch may deteriorate.
Panel-mounted Model (X-10GQ@)
• To side-mount the panel-mount Switch to the panel with screws,
remove the hexagonal nut from the actuator.
• Too large a dog angle and too fast operating speed may damage
the Switch when the Switch is side-mounted on the panel.
• Too fast operating speed and too long overtravel of the roller
plunger Switch may result in damage to the Switch.
