FAQ for Z-15GW2-B
What's the advantage of roller lever actuator?
Roller lever reduces friction and wear when contacting moving cams. Roller follows cam profile smoothly, reducing operating force and extending switch life. Ideal for continuous cycling applications.
How do I adjust the cam position for proper operation?
Position cam so it contacts roller at 15-30 degrees from free position. Ensure over-travel of at least 15 degrees beyond operating point. Avoid exceeding maximum over-travel or actuator may be damaged.
What's the difference between Z-15GW2 and Z-15GW22?
GW2 has standard roller lever. GW22 has ball short swing bar (shorter lever with ball tip). GW22 is for compact mechanisms with limited cam travel. GW2 is for standard applications with adequate space.
Can this switch handle high cycle applications?
Yes, 10 million mechanical operations life. For electrical life at rated load (50,000 operations), consider using contacts to control a relay/contactor rather than switching load directly. This extends overall system life.
What mounting orientation is recommended?
Mount so actuator swings in direction of cam travel. Avoid mounting where actuator could be over-traveled beyond mechanical limit. For vertical mounting, ensure actuator returns to free position by gravity or spring.
