Honeywell ZM1 Series Micro Switch, 6A Switch Contact Current, IP40 - ZM160C20B01


This micro switch is a Compact electromechanical device designed to detect mechanical position changes and provide reliable electrical switching in control and sensing systems. It is suited for use where small form-factor actuation and PCB mounting are required, operating across a wide ambient temperature range for demanding industrial environments.

Features and Benefits:


• Short lever actuator enables precise, Rapid actuation
• SPCO contact arrangement simplifies single-circuit control
• PCB Terminal allows direct circuit board integration
• 6A contact rating supports moderate current loads
• Operates from -40°C to 125°C for extreme environments
• Mechanical endurance of 400 cycles suited to intermittent use

Applications


• Suitable for limit switching in automation equipment
• Ideal for position sensing in electromechanical assemblies
• Used with PCB-mounted consumer appliances for safety cut-outs
• Can be used for control signals in instrumentation panels

What mounting method does it use for circuit connection?


It employs PCB terminals for soldered board mounting, enabling Compact integration onto printed circuit boards.

How does the actuator type affect switch response?


The short lever reduces travel distance and increases actuation speed, delivering quick mechanical-to-electrical transition suitable for precise detection.

What environmental protection level does it provide?


The enclosure meets IP40, offering protection against solid objects larger than 1mm while remaining intended for indoor, sheltered locations.

What approvals and standards cover its manufacture and safety?


It conforms to multiple industry standards and approvals including REACH, UL, RoHS, CE, CQC, cUL to UL61058-1 and ENEC to IEC61058-1.

What is the expected electrical behaviour under load?


The contacts are rated for 6A switching current, appropriate for moderate load circuits where a single-pole changeover configuration is required.
