Notes are common to this series/models
- This site catalog shows only outline specifications. When using the products, please obtain formal specifications for supply.
- Please place purchase orders per minimum order unit (integer).
Cautions
- Appling load to terminals during soldering under certain conditions may cause deformation and electrical property degradation.
- Avoid use of water-soluble soldering flux, since it may corrode the switches.
- Check and conform to soldering requirements under actual mass production conditions.
- In soldering twice, make sure the solder joints should go down to normal temperature. Continuing heating will cause deformation of switch, loose and fracfored terminals, or may deteriorate electrical characteristics.
- Flux from around and above the PC board should not adhere to the switches.
- For the sizes of holes and patterns on a PC board for mounting a switch, refer to the recommended dimensions in the outline drawings.
- This switch is designed for manually operated units. Must not use this switch for a mechanical detection unit. For detection purposes, please use our detection switches.
- After mounting the switches, if you intend to put the board into an oven in order to harden adhesive for other parts, please consult with ALPS.
- Use of a through-hole PC board, or a PC board of different thickness from the recommendation will have a different heat stress. Verify the soldering requirements thoroughly before use.
- Solder the switches with detent at the detent position. Soldering switches fixed at the center of the detent may deform the detent mechanisms.
- No washing.
- Protect small and thin switches from external forces in the set mounting process.
- Use of the switches with voltage below 1V DC or current below 10μA may make contacts unstable.
When using these switches in this way, please consult with us beforehand. - The products are designed and manufactured for direct current resistance. Contact us
for use of other resistances such as inductive (L) or capacitive (C). - The switch will be broken if impact force or a greater stress than that specified is applied. Take a great care not to let the switch be subject to greater stress than specified.
- Do not apply a force from the side of the stem.
- Be sure to push the center of switch for "without-stem"type. Extreme care is required for a hinge structure type because the stem press position moves when it is pressed.
- Insert these switches to the specified mounting surface and mount them horizontally. If not mounted horizontally, these switches will malfunction.
- Use of the switches in a dusty environment may lead the dusts entering through the openings and cause imperfect contact or malfunction. Take this into account for set design.
- Corrosive gas if generated by peripheral parts of a set, malfunction such as imperfect contact may occur. Thorough investigation shall be required beforehand.
- Be aware of dust intrusion into a non dust-proof-type TACT Switch™.
- Storage
- Store the products as delivered, at a normal temperature and humidity, without direct sunshine and corrosive gas ambient. Use them at an earliest possible timing, not later than six months upon receipt.
- Store the key switches with the switch in the released position.
