For applications in confined spaces, compact housings are ideal. The ML Series features a die-cast metal enclosure with IP65 protection, flexible actuation, and precise slow/snap contact actions
For industrial use, metal-bodied switches are built to withstand harsh conditions. The ML Series delivers a compact design, precise actuation, robust die-cast housing, and premium silver-alloy contacts for reliable performance in demanding environments.
Compact Design
Small form-factor fits tight installation spaces, ideal for specialty machinery with limited room.
Slow & Quick Action
Dual actuation modes provide flexibility for applications requiring either precision control (slow action) or rapid response (quick action).
Engineered for reliability in harsh industrial conditions.
Reliable position feedback even in confined machinery installations.
Metal housing and sealing resist chemicals, abrasion, and shocks.
Compact size and versatile actuators allow quick, flexible mounting in tight or awkward spaces.
High-quality materials (die-cast metal, silver contacts, nitrile seals) ensure long service life with minimal maintenance.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to common questions about ML Series switches
What applications are ML Series switches best suited for?
The ML Series excels in compact industrial automation: plastic injection-molding machines, machine tools (CNC, presses), packaging and conveyor systems, food/beverage processing lines, and automated assembly equipment. Its miniature size and robust design make it ideal for confined machinery spaces
What contact configurations are available?
All ML Series switches use a single SPDT pair (1NO + 1NC). Each unit is available in either slow (normal) or snap (quick) action variants. The contacts are silver-alloy for superior conductivity and long electrical life.
How durable are these switches in industrial environments?
ML Series switches are built for longevity. They use aluminium die-cast metal housings and nitrile rubber seals for harsh environments, enduring dust, oils, and mechanical abuse. Many models are rated for millions of operations, ensuring years of reliable service.
Can these switches be used outdoors?
Yes. With an IP65 rating and sealed metal housing, ML Series switches resist dust ingress and water jets, making them suitable for outdoor or washdown applications.
What makes ML Series switches reliable for safety-critical use?
Their robust construction and materials ensure safe operation. Die-cast metal enclosures and Nitrile seals provide secure isolation against contaminants. Silver-alloy contacts and precision mechanisms deliver consistent actuation. Many ML models meet international safety standards, supporting dependable performance in critical applications.
