The new product features include the addition of positive opening contacts (side rotary version only), enhanced sealing level to IP67; NEMA 1, 12, 13, extended the temperature range, and added CCC certification. The upgraded design includes modified seals, housing and a new design cable gland to improve seal performance. The housing design and mounting hole pattern remain the same. Any dimensional changes do not exceed more than 1mm.</p><p class="announcement-p" style="margin:0;">These product enhancements will allow the potential for use in wide variety of applications as well as bring more value to our customers. The upgrades to the SZL-VL Series require that we introduce new part numbers and obsolete the existing SZL-VL part numbers.</p><p class="announcement-p" style="margin:0;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</p><h3>Differentiation</h3><p class="announcement-p" style="margin:0;">With robust environmental ratings, the SZL-VL-S is protected for all kinds of industrial applications. IP67 indicates that the SZL-VL-S is protected against the effect of immersion in water between 15 cm and 1 m. The competition standard is IP65 which can only withstand low pressure spray and jets of water. The electrical rating of 10 A permits the SZL-VL-S switch to be used with heavier electrical loads than competitors.</p><h3></h3><h3><br />Features</h3><ul><li>Approvals: CCC, CE, cULus</li><li>Sealed to IP67, NEMA 1, 12, 13</li><li>Snap-action contacts</li><li>Die-cast metal housing with glass-filled, flame-retardant thermoplastic cover</li><li>Stainless steel levers with either steel and nylon rollers</li><li>Variety of actuators</li><li>Positive-opening contacts (plunger version only)</li><li>RoHS compliant</li><li>Utilization category:<ul><li>AC-15 A300 (380 Vac/0.5 A)</li><li>DC-13 Q300 (220 Vdc/0.05 A)</li></ul></li><li>Mechanical life rating: 10 million cycles</li><li>Electrical life rating: 0.5 million cycles</li></ul><h3><br />Potential Applications</h3><ul><li>Commercial appliances</li><li>Exhaust and fume hood door monitoring</li><li>Lift mechanisms inside high-density parking garages</li><li>Logistic facilities</li><li>Machine electrical interlock</li><li>Machine position sensing</li><li>Ramp up and down position monitoring</li><li>Scissor and man lifts</li><li>Vending machines</li></ul><div style="clear:both;"></div> <div style="font-size: 90%;">Tags: sensing, new_product_introduction, szl-vl, New Product Introductions, siot, honeywell, micro_switch, switch, limit</div>
