AJ8R POWER ROCKER SWITCH 2. Improved feel of switch operation. These switches provide the same comfortable operation of our conventional AJ8 switches. Comparison of force through operating stroke Force Conventional type Upgraded type RoHS Directive compatibility information http://www.nais-e.com/ AJ8 SWITCHES WITH TRIP FUNCTION UPGRADED TYPE 4. Prolonged electrical service life. Coil operation provides an electrical life of at least 50,000 switching operations. 5. Assures excellent ability to withstand inrush current when used to turn a power supply on/off. The switch uses our own proprietary mechanism that provides an excellent ability to withstand inrush current. Inrush current rating (IEC61058-1): 160A (normally 16A at 125V AC), 10,000 times 6. Approved under major international safety standards. UL, cUL, TUV and SEMKO approved. Stroke FEATURES 1. Power switches with an electromagnetic reset function which meet the need for energy savings in equipment and for safety. Applications for these switches include promoting energy savings in equipment (by reducing power consumption when OA equipment is in standby mode, for example), preventing fires caused by overheating of a heater inside equipment, preventing electrical leaks, and automatically turning off the power if the unit tips over or is shaken. These switches feature a built-in electromagnetic reset function that shuts off the main power supply in response to a signal that is received from an external sensor. 3. CT terminals adopted for coil terminals These switches can be used with AMP's CT connectors, which are widely used for wiring connections in OA equipment, making it possible to achieve greater efficiency in wiring work. Receptacle socket for AMP's CT connector PRECAUTIONS WHEN USING CADMIUM-FREE CONTACT TYPE Models with cadmium-free contacts have been introduced in order to reduce environmentally harmful substances. ("F" is affixed to the end of the part number.) We ask customers who are currently using products with cadmium-containing contacts (no "F" at the end of the part number) to please make the switch to models with cadmium-free contacts. When switching, operating life may differ depending on the load. Please be sure to verify this by conducting an evaluation using actual equipment.

All Rights Reserved (c) COPYRIGHT Matsushita Electric Works, Ltd. AJ8R NOTES 1. Operating voltage application time If the rated voltage is applied to the coil for more than 10 seconds or the maximum voltage is applied for more than 1 second, coil performance may deteriorate. 2. The shape of the mounting panel should be as recommended in the dimensions diagram. Contact us if you are considering using a panel of other than the recommended size and shape. 3. The mounting panel should be made of SPCC. If a different material is used, its adhesion to the switch unit may not be as strong. Check this on site if necessary. 4. Note that the actuator could pop out of the switch housing if 19.6N (2kgf) or more of force is applied to the side of the actuator. 5. Regarding fastening lead wires to terminals (1) When connecting the .250 Quickconnect terminals, use a .250 receptacle and insert the terminals straight in. If you insert them at an angle, the terminals could catch on the opening and will require greater insertion force. (2) The coil terminals have specific polarities. Make sure you connect them correctly. (3) Use a receptacle that is compliant with JIS C 2809. In addition, there is some deviation regarding the insertion force depending on the model used from different manufacturers, so the insertion force should be checked under realistic conditions. (4) Use AMP's CT connector for the coil terminals. 6. Because special receptacle terminals are used for the contact terminals and the common terminals, do not attempt to solder them. Doing so could melt plastic components and otherwise harm the performance of the switch 7. The terminals should be connected in such a way that they are not under constant stress from the connecting wires. 8. Take care not to drop the product as it may impair performance. 9. Resistance to chemicals To clean the switch unit, use a neutral detergent diluted with water. Do not use acidic or alkaline solvents as they may damage the switch. Furthermore, be careful not to get any of the detergent solution inside of the switch while cleaning it. 10. This product is not hermetically sealed, so its performance could deteriorate under certain ambient conditions. Avoid using and storing these switches in a location where they will be exposed to corrosive gases, silicon, or high dust levels, all of which can have an adverse effect on the contacts. In addition, because these switches contain permanent magnets, avoid using and storing these switches in a location where metallic dust, etc., is present. 11. When these switches are used with weak currents of 500mA or less, a layer of material on the surface of the contacts may cause contact instability. Check and evaluate this possibility before using these switches under such conditions. 12. When using an ON-OFF type switch with no (I O) indication on the actuator, the "OFF" position should be indicated on the set in which the switch is installed. 13. To assure reliability, check the switch under actual loading conditions. Avoid any situation that may adversely affect switching performance. COIL TERMINAL CONNECTOR Because CT terminals are used for the coil terminals, AMP's CT connector can be used. AMP's CT connector Remark: We do not sell this type of connector. Questions concerning this connector should be directed to the manufacturer. receptacle socket Pressure welding type: 173977-2: for AWG26, 28 2-179694-2: for AWG24 Crimping type: 179228-2 All Rights Reserved (c) COPYRIGHT Matsushita Electric Works, Ltd.
