1. Soldering Speci cations
Manual soldering
Device Solder iron
420 Max. 3 sec. Max.
Auto soldering
275 Max. 6 sec. Max.
The above-stated soldering conditions shall apply only
to switches with straight terminals. Auto soldering is
not possible with right-angle terminals. Switches with
right-angle terminals should be soldered manually
according to the conditions speci ed in (1) above.
When soldering two or more terminals to the common
land, use the solder resist to isolate the terminals.
3. Mounting
Do not bend the terminals before mounting the
switch on the PC board.
After mounting the switch, do not place the device
in such a way that the device weight will be applied
on to the actuator of the switch.
For switches with straight terminals, solder the
switch on the PC board after  xing the switch on the
panel with a nut.
2.Flux Cleaning
Solvent : Fluorine or Alcohol type.
8A/B/C/D/E/F/J/S series are not washable. To wash
the PC board, clean the soldering surface of the PC
board with a brush so that the switch is not exposed
to the cleaning solution.
Cleaning after soldering should be done after the
terminal temperature falls to 90 or below, or after
leaving the switch for  ve minutes or longer at room
temperature.
