Notes for Turquoise Switches (BJ, BS, BV type)
CAUTIONS FOR USE (Common for BJ, BS and BV types)
■
Fastening of the switch body
1) Fasten the switch body onto a smooth surface using the
correct screw as shown in the chart below and tighten it with the
prescribed torque.
The switch case may deform depending on the type of screw
(screw head diameter, etc.), the size of the washer, and the use
or non-use of a washer. Therefore, please confirm the
appropriate torque of actual conditions. Also, it is recommended
that adhesive be applied to lock the screws to prevent loosening
of the screws. When doing so, please be careful not let any
adhesive get inside the switch.

Not more than 0.49N·m
■
Selection of the switch
Allow for up to
±20%
variation of the specified characteristics
values to compensate for long term operational wear of the
switch in your design.
■
Cautions regarding use
1) When switching inductive loads (relays, solenoids, buzzers,
etc.), an arc absorbing circuit is recommended to protect the
contacts.
2) If switching of the contact is synchronized with the phase of
the AC power, reduced electrical life or welded contact may
occur. Therefore, test the switch while it is operating under actual
loads for this condition. If found, you may wish to take corrective
action in your design.
3) In the slow or high speed operating condition, the electrical
life might be greatly reduced depending upon the switching load.
Please consult us before use.
4) Using lever type in do not condition, there is the concern that
the flexible part may be impeded and return movement may not
be possible. In this situation take the following precautions:
• Select a product of higher OF or use a leaf type lever.
• Attach a protective cover to the lever.
5) If the leaf lever type switch is excessively pushed (pushed
further than the operational limit position) or switching is done at
high speed or is accompanied by the impact, the lever will break.
Please be careful. Also, be careful with the short roller lever type
ABV (BV) switch as improper return may result from pressing
too much.
■
Protection from dust, water and corrosive gas
1) The pin button and the space around the body cap Turquoise
switches are sealed with elastic material, the terminal portion is
integrally molded. This prevents dust entry and protects the
switch against corrosive gases. Wireleaded types are
recommended for applications subject to water or oil splash.
However, avoid soaking these immersion protected types in oil
or water, because those types are not of completely oil tight
construction.
2) Switch operation or rapid temperature change while water
droplets are on the switch may cause the water invasion inside
the switch because of breathing action on condensation.
Especially do not use switch in a bath.
If sources of silicon gas are existing in the vicinity of the switch
(silicon rubber, silicon oil, silicon coating, and silicon filler, etc.),
silicon gas (low molecular siloxane, etc.) will be emitted and it
will get into the product due to the permeability of the plastic.
If the switch is used or stored in such an environment, silicon
compound might generate on the contacts, cause the and faulty
contacting. Therefore, please do not use sources that can emit
silicon gas in the vicinity of the switch.
Do not use in areas where flammable or explosive gases from
gasoline and thinner, etc., may be present.
2) Fixed pin type
To secure the switch unit, thermally crimp or press-fit the
mounting pins. If the pins are to be press-fitted, install a guide on
the opposite surface to the mounting pins to prevent them from
slipping out of position and developing play.
3) Be sure to maintain adequate insulating clearance between
each terminal and ground.
4) The positioning of the switch should be such that direct force
is not applied to the pushbutton or actuator in its free position.
The operating force to the pushbutton should only be applied in
a perpendicular direction.
5) The standard value of overtravel used should be within the
range of 70% to 100% of the rated OT value.
6) When soldering the BV type turquoise switch or the
immersion protected type of the BJ and BS type switches, the
sealing material sometimes forms a lump or bulge at the base of
the terminal or lead. Be sure to allow enough space for this
when attaching the switch.
■
Soldering operations
1) Manual soldering: Perform soldering in less than 3 seconds
with maximum 350°C iron. Care should be taken not to apply
force to the terminals during soldering. We recommend a
soldering iron with temperature adjustment in order to prevent
poor quality soldering.
Please consult us if you intend to use a soldering iron of 60 W or
higher.
2) Terminal portions should not be moved within 1 minute after
soldering.
