Omron D40Z-1C5 Safety Door Switch
Omron D40Z-1C5 is a compact non-contact safety door switch designed for protective-door and machine-guard position monitoring without conventional mechanical switch actuation. Its integrated 5 m cable supports connection around guarded machine access points, while the specified operating-distance variation is 20% or less at 23°C, with a maximum distance of 2.5 mm. The non-contact sensing principle supports machine guarding where physical contact between the switch and actuator is not required. The D40Z-1C5 belongs to the D40Z Series within the non-contact safety door switch range from Omron machine safety products, connecting guard position, protective access detection and machine safety control.

The Omron D40Z-1C5 Non-contact Safety Door Switch provides protective guard-position detection without conventional mechanical switch actuation. Its non-contact sensing arrangement connects the switch and actuator with a monitored machine access point, allowing protective-door position to be communicated to the associated safety architecture. The integrated 5 m cable provides additional connection length for installation around guarded machinery. Its specified operating-distance variation is 20% or less at 23°C, with a maximum operating distance of 2.5 mm. The main product relationships are non-contact safety switching, machine guard monitoring, protective-door detection, actuator position and safety control. These functional entities describe the model more effectively than secondary shock, vibration or weight specifications. Because physical tongue operation is not required, the D40Z family has a different sensing relationship from conventional mechanical safety door switches. Cable length is also an important model-level attribute because it directly differentiates installation options within the same non-contact series. The D40Z-1C5 therefore provides a defined relationship between a movable guard, non-contact actuator detection and the connected machine safety system. For the same D40Z non-contact safety door function with a shorter integrated cable, the D40Z-1C2 provides the closest related model.
