The Omron VB-3241 is a durable multiple limit switch equipped with three roller plungers for accurate multi-point detection. Each plunger uses a 6.8 mm diameter roller and operates with consistent response at speeds between 0.1 mm/s and 0.5 m/s. This model features side cable entries and a no-flange structure, allowing compact and flexible mounting in equipment with tight space constraints.
With a 10 A contact rating at 250 VAC, the switch handles resistive loads reliably across 300,000 electrical cycles and 5 million mechanical operations. Built to withstand harsh industrial conditions, it offers IP67 protection against water and dust, 100 Mβ¦ insulation resistance, and low 15 mβ¦ contact resistance. It also meets strict vibration (10β55 Hz) and shock (1,000 m/sΒ² destruction) standards.
The VB-3241 is suited for conveyors, indexing machinery, and control systems requiring compact, reliable multi-plunger switching in harsh environments.
