OMRON ZC-D55

Enclosed Switch
ZC-j55
Small, High-precision Enclosed Switch
Employs a modified version of Z Basic Switch as
built-in switch.
Same mounting pitch as Z Basic Switch.
A number of switch units may be ganged for
application.
Pre-wired molded terminal models are available.
Requires less operating force than conventional
limit switches.
Long life expectancy and economical.

Molded Terminal Model
The molded-terminal model is available with right-hand, left-hand
and underside leads and is recommended for use where the switch
is exposed to dust, oil or moisture.
The molded-terminal model is not approved by UL and CSA.

Ordering Information
Note:
When placing your order for the switch, specify the required
length of V.S.F. or V.C.T. cable in addition to the model number of the switch.
Example:
Standard type:
ZC-Q2155
Location of lead output: Underside
Location of lead output
Pre-wired terminals:
COM and NO
Length of lead:
1 m (V.C.T. lead)
When placing your order for the above switch, specify the model
number as ZC-Q2155-MD3 (VCT 1 m).

Operation Indicator Equipped Model
All the models can be equipped upon request with a operation indicator to facilitate maintenance and inspection.
Because the indicator is incorporated in the terminal protective cover, the dimensions of the limit switch are not affected. In this model,
the lead wire is to be connected to the screw terminal. (A connecting
washer is provided on the tip of the lead wire).
The lead wire can be connected to either the NC or NO terminal.
Operating characteristics are the same as the standard model from
which the operation indicator equipped model is fabricated.

AC Operation
The operating voltage range is from 90 to 250 VAC.
The dimensions are the same as the standard type. The top of the
terminal protective cover is transparent to allow checking the operation easily.
When placing your order for the indicator equipped, AC-operated
model, add suffix “L” to the end of the model number.
Example:
Standard type:
ZC-Q2255
Indicator equipped type: ZC-Q2255-L

DC Operation
The DC-operated is provided with an LED indicator.
Since a rectifier stack is incorporated into the unit to permit reversing the polarity, this type can also operate on AC power source.
The LED projects from the housing for easy visibility.
When placing your order, add suffix “L2” to “L5” to the model number
of the standard type.
