Overview
The Omron V-15G-1C26-K is a compact snap-action microswitch designed for industrial motion control, position sensing, and automation applications. This limit switch combines proven snap-action contact technology with a pin plunger actuator for reliable, repeatable switching performance in machinery and control systems requiring precise position feedback and emergency stop functionality.
Key Features
- 15A rated current — handles typical AC motor and solenoid loads without de-rating
- SPDT contact configuration — simultaneous opening and closing of normally open and normally closed contacts enables flexible logic implementation
- Snap-action mechanism — rapid contact separation prevents arcing and extends contact life
- Pin plunger actuator — precise, tactile engagement ideal for mechanical linkages and rotating cam follower applications
- 400GF operating force — moderate actuation force reduces unintended switching while maintaining repeatability
- Compact form factor — chassis-mount design fits standard control panel layouts
