MICRO SWITCH Subminiature Basic Switches
ZM/ZM1 Series
DESCRIPTION
MICRO SWITCH ZM and ZM1 Series are subminiature snap
action switches from the Honeywell MICRO SWITCH family of
Z Series subminiature basic switches. Although small in size,
the ZM and ZM1 Series are rated for controlling electrical loads
ranging from logic level (computer based circuits) to power
duty switching (up to 16.1 A and 250 Vac).
The package size of the subminiature switch is ideal for
applications where space on the equipment is at a premium.
The overall length of the ZM and ZM1 Series are less than 20
mm [0.78 in]. As with all snap-action switches, the audible click
when actuated promotes ease of installation and set-up of the
switches. A wide variety of integral stainless steel levers are
available and when combined with the subminiature package
size, may adapt the switch to a wide variety of applications.
The ZM Series is agency certified to UL, cUL, CE, and CQC for
worldwide use, while the ZM1 Series is agency certified to UL,
cUL, ENEC, and CQC for worldwide use.
