AEQ1 LOW LEVEL LOAD SWITCH (100 A at 3 VDC) RoHS compliant AEQ (EQ) SWITCHES FEATURES TYPICAL APPLICATIONS * Handles low level load 100 A at 3 VDC to 100 mA 30 VDC [Minimum switching capacity (reference value) 10 A at 1 VDC] * Ultra-long stroke. For pin plunger type, it maintains an ultra-long stroke O.T. (Over Travel) with over 2.2 mm on the NO side and over 2.5 mm on the NC side. * Since contact pressure does not depend on the operation stroke, the range of possible use over the entire stroke is greatly increased. * Silent operation * Household appliances (Cover detection of air conditioners and air purifiers for safety purpose. Cover destruction detection of crime prevention devices.)

This is to prevent deterioration due to soldering heat. Care should be taken not to apply force to the terminals during soldering. Terminal portion must not be moved within 1 minute after soldering. Mounting Please avoid use in which load would be applied to the sides [hatch part (both sides) shown below] of the switch in the direction indicated by the arrows. This could cause erroneous operation. Also, when using a metal installation board, please make allowance for burr direction designation and burr suppressing, etc., so that the burr side will not be on the switch installation side. 1) To secure the switch, please use an M3 small screw on a flat surface and tighten using a maximum torque of 0.29 N*m. It is recommended that spring washers be used with the screws and adhesive be applied to lock the screws to prevent loosening of the screws. Please make sure not to apply adhesive onto the moving parts. 2) Be sure to maintain adequate insulating clearance between each terminal and ground. 3) Although it is possible to directly operate the pin plunger type from the lateral direction, please consult us if doing so. 4) After mounting please make sure no tensile load will be applied to the switch terminals. AECTB14E 201201-T 5) Range of possible use: Please set the operation position to within the ranges in the following table so that there is sufficient insulation distance and to maintain contact reliability. Plunger/lever free From boss and From standoff hole center line Actuator Pin plunger >9.2 mm >13.4 mm Leaf lever >10.7 mm >14.9 mm Simulated leaf lever >13.5 mm >17.7 mm Plunger/Lever pushed From boss and From standoff hole center line Actuator Pin plunger 7.8 to 5.9 mm 12.0 to 10.1 mm Leaf lever 8.4 to 6.2 mm 12.6 to 10.4 mm Simulated leaf lever 11.1 to 8.7 mm 15.3 to 12.9 mm 6) PC board terminal type should be used if the products are to be soldered on the PC board. (Solder terminal type is not for soldering on PC board.) Cautions regarding the circuit 1) In order to prevent malfunction in set devices caused by bounce and chattering during the ON-OFF switch operation, please verify the validity of the circuit under actual operating conditions and temperature range. 2) When switching inductive loads (relays, solenoids, buzzers, etc.), an arc absorbing circuit is recommended to protect the contacts. Please verify under actual conditions. Please be sure to conduct quality verification under actual operating conditions in order to increase reliability during actual use. Panasonic Corporation Automation Controls Business Unit Switch selection Please make your selection so that there will be no problems even if the operating characteristics vary up to 20% from the standard values. Other 1) Keep away from environments where silicon based adhesives, oil or grease are present as faulty contacts may result from silicon oxide. Do not use in areas where flammable or explosive gases from gasoline and thinner, etc., may be present. 2) When using the lever type, please be careful not to apply unreasonable load from the reverse or lateral directions of operation. 3) Do not exceed the total travel position (TTP) and press the actuator. This could cause operation failure. Also, when switching at high speed or under shock even within the operation limit, the working life may decrease. Therefore, please be sure to verify the quality under actual conditions of use. 4) Please make considerations so that the switch does not become the stopper for the operating part. The switch could break. industrial.panasonic.com/ac/e
