Operating Characteristics
HE1G-20MB
HE1G-20ME
: contact ON (closed) : contact OFF (open)
Notes:
• 3-position switches operate with direct opening action when shifting from position 2 to position 3.
• For the output of the enabling device, use terminals 1-2 and 3-4.
• The above operation characteristics show when the center of the button is pressed. Pressing the edge of a button turns on one contact
earlier than the other contact, causing a delay in operation.
