The Omron SHL-W255-01 is a compact enclosed switch equipped with a short hinge roller lever and a snap-action mechanism for responsive actuation. Designed for microload switching, it handles 0.1 A at 125 VAC or 30 VDC, making it suitable for low-power signal applications.
This model features a SPDT contact configuration and supports over 10 million mechanical operations, with a minimum electrical durability of 500,000 cycles. It provides excellent resistance to shock (up to 1,000 m/sΒ²), vibration (10β55 Hz), and environmental exposure, thanks to its robust zinc housing and IP67-rated sealing.
The SHL-W255-01 is built to operate in temperatures from β10Β°C to 80Β°C and humidity up to 95%, maintaining reliable performance in automation, safety, and control systems. With low contact resistance (15 mΞ© max.) and high insulation performance (100 MΞ© min. at 500 VDC), it ensures consistent, repeatable signal transmission.
