The Omron VB-6211 is a compact and high-durability multiple limit switch equipped with six roller plungers for simultaneous or independent detection. Each plunger features a 6.8 mm diameter roller to ensure smooth, repeatable actuation. The unit offers flange mounting and dual side wiring entries for easy integration into industrial machines, conveyors, or automated systems requiring multi-point position sensing.
With a contact rating of 10 A at 250 VAC (resistive), the VB-6211 ensures reliable electrical performance. It supports operating speeds from 0.1 mm/s to 0.5 m/s and delivers up to 5 million mechanical operations, plus 300,000 electrical cycles. The switch withstands vibration (10–55 Hz) and shock (up to 1,000 m/s²), and operates in temperatures from –10°C to 80°C with up to 95% humidity. The VB-6211 is housed in a sealed metal body for long-term reliability and rated for IP67 protection.
