The Omron VB-4221 is a durable multiple limit switch built for multi-point mechanical detection in space-constrained industrial systems. It features four roller plungers, each with a 6.8 mm diameter roller, and supports flange mounting for secure integration in machine panels and production lines. This model is rated for 10 A at 250 VAC (resistive load) and delivers 5 million mechanical operations and 300,000 electrical cycles.
Operating at speeds between 0.1 mm/s to 0.5 m/s, the VB-4221 is ideal for precise limit control. It handles vibration (10β55 Hz, 1.5 mm double amplitude) and high-impact shock (up to 1,000 m/sΒ²), ensuring stability in high-load environments. The switch offers excellent insulation resistance (100 MΞ© at 500 VDC) and maintains performance in temperatures from β10Β°C to 80Β°C and 35β95% humidity. The VB-4221 features a rugged metal body and sealed construction with IP67 protection.
