S41T Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended operating temperature range for the S41T switch?
  The recommended operating temperature range for the S41T switch is -20°C to 70°C, although it can withstand storage temperatures from -40°C to 85°C.
• How many cycles can the S41T switch withstand before it starts to degrade?
  The S41T switch is rated for a minimum of 10,000 cycles, but it can withstand up to 50,000 cycles or more depending on the operating conditions and usage.
• What is the recommended torque for tightening the switch's nut?
  The recommended torque for tightening the switch's nut is 0.5 N·m to 1.5 N·m (0.36 lbf·in to 1.06 lbf·in). Over-tightening can damage the switch.
• Can the S41T switch be used in high-vibration environments?
  Yes, the S41T switch is designed to withstand high-vibration environments and can operate reliably in applications with vibrations up to 10 G (98 m/s²).
• Is the S41T switch suitable for use in humid or wet environments?
  The S41T switch has a rating of IP40, which means it provides protection against solid objects larger than 1 mm, but it is not fully sealed against moisture. It can operate in humid environments, but it is not recommended for use in wet or submerged applications.
