Design and Performance
Robust Enclosed Housing for Reliable Field Use
As an enclosed switch, the SHL-W255 provides a fully housed construction that protects internal contacts from dust, splash, and general workshop contamination, supporting more reliable operation than an open-frame basic switch in demanding environments.
Short Hinge Roller Lever for Smooth Cam Actuation
The short hinge roller lever actuator reduces friction and wear during repeated cam or dog actuation, supporting smooth, consistent switching over the switch’s service life.
Compact, General-Purpose Design
Part of the compact, general-purpose horizontal SHL series, this switch balances a space-efficient footprint with the durability expected of an enclosed limit switch, suited to a broad range of machine position-sensing applications.
Precise, Repeatable Operating Characteristics
Defined operating force, release force, pretravel, and overtravel specifications ensure consistent, repeatable trip-point behavior, supporting reliable position detection across repeated machine cycles.
Molded Terminal Variant Available for Harsh Environments
For locations subject to excessive dust, oil drips, or moisture, Omron recommends the molded terminal model variant (SHL-W255-01) of this same switch body, offering enhanced environmental sealing where standard screw terminals may be exposed.
