Omron ZV2-N-2 Limit Switch
Omron ZV2-N-2 is a sealed enclosed limit switch with a booted plunger for direct machine position detection. The straight actuator suits targets that approach the switch head-on, while diagonal side mounting supports installation where access from the side is preferred. Its SPDT AC contact configuration supports 15 A at 250 VAC resistive-load switching, and the 0.01 mm/s to 0.5 m/s operating-speed range covers slow and faster movement. IP65 protection supports use around dust or moisture. The ZV2-N-2 belongs to the ZV2 Series within the sealed plunger limit switch range from Omron control components for direct travel and end-position sensing in diagonal side-mounted applications.

The Omron ZV2-N-2 Limit Switch uses a sealed plunger with a booted enclosure for direct machine position and end-point detection. The straight actuator suits targets that approach the switch head-on, while diagonal side mounting supports installations where the switch body must be reached from an angled side position. Its built-in SPDT AC switch supports 15 A at 250 VAC resistive load, and operating speed ranges from 0.01 mm/s to 0.5 m/s. The switch supports up to 120 mechanical and 20 electrical operations per minute. IP65 protection supports enclosed plunger switching around dust or moisture.
Mechanical durability is specified at 10 million operations minimum, while electrical durability reaches 500,000 operations minimum at 15 A, 250 VAC resistive load. Initial contact resistance is 15 mΩ maximum, and insulation resistance is 100 MΩ minimum at 500 VDC. The ZV2-N-2 operates from -10 to 80°C, with sealed-type humidity support up to 95% RH. Destructive shock resistance reaches 1,000 m/s² maximum, while malfunction vibration resistance covers 10 to 55 Hz at 1.5 mm double amplitude. These characteristics suit direct plunger sensing where diagonal side mounting and AC switching are preferred. For a related ZV2 model using a sealed roller plunger, see the ZV2-N22-2 model.
