Operating characteristics
Operating Force (OF) Standard value 0.05 N Max. (X-Y direction)
Pre-Travel (PT) Reference value 14 mm (X-Y direction)
Total Travel (TT) Reference value 30 mm (X-Y direction)
Permissible Operating Force Standard value 0.49 N Max.

Precautions for correct use:
Do not apply an excessive force to the actuator. Keep the force less than 0.49 N when the switch is operated repeatedly. In case of wire-spring type, an excessive stroke may cause the breakage of the wire-spring. Therefore, Total Travel (TT) should be the reference value or less.
