The Omron D5B-8015 is a high-precision mechanical touch switch designed for tactile feedback applications in compact machinery. It features a slim M8 housing with a hemispheric actuator and a slow-action mechanism, ensuring accurate and reliable position detection with light operating force. This model supports microloads from 1 mA at 5 VDC to 30 mA at 30 VDC, making it suitable for signal-level control circuits. The switch is prewired with a 5-meter oil-resistant cable, simplifying integration into machines or robotics that require extended cable routing.
It operates at speeds between 5 mm/s to 500 mm/s and maintains performance under harsh conditions, withstanding vibrations (10–55 Hz), shocks (1,000 m/s²), and operating temperatures from –10°C to 70°C. With an IP67 rating and robust metal housing, the D5B-8015 ensures reliable sealing against dust and water. It’s ideal for sensing tasks in robotic arms, fixture alignment, and other fine-movement systems.
