18. Connect to the G9SX-NS@ only appropriate components or 
devices complying with relevant safety standards corresponding 
to the required level of safety category. 
Conformity to requirements of safety category must be 
determined as an entire system. It is recommended to consult an 
authorized certification body regarding assessment of conformity 
to the required safety level.
19. OMRON is not responsible for conformity with any safety 
standards covering the customer's entire system.
20. Be careful not to have your fingers caught when mounting terminal 
blocks.
21. The service life will depend on the switching conditions. Be sure 
to check the actual operating conditions using the actual devices, 
and make sure that the number of switching operations will not 
cause performance problems.

1. Handle with Care.
Do not drop the product or expose it to excessive vibration or 
mechanical shock. The product may be damaged and may not 
function properly.
2. Storage and Operating Conditions
Do not store or use the products under the following conditions. 
1. In direct sunlight
2. At ambient temperatures not between −10 and 55°C
3. At relative humidity not between 25% and 85% or under 
temperature changes that could causes condensation
4. In corrosive or combustible gases
5 Where subject to vibration or mechanical shock beyond the 
rated values
6. Where subject to contact with water, oil, or chemicals
7. In an atmosphere containing excessive dust, saline, or metal 
powder
8. Where iron filings or powder may fall on the product
3. D40A is a class A product.In residential areas D40A may cause 
radio interference, in which case the user may be required to take 
adequate measures to reduce interference.

4. Always use the D40A/G9SX-NS together with the special actuator 
and a G9X-NS@ Controller. If you use any other OMRON Safety 
Controller, confirm applicability in the manual for the Safety 
Controller.
5. Use cables with a length of less than 100 m total to connect D40A 
Switches. The supply voltage to D40A may decrease by the 
voltage drop depending on the cable or the wiring configuration. 
Check the power-supply voltage is in the rated range. 
6. Disconnect the G9SX-NS@ from the power supply when replacing 
the D40A. Devices connected to the G9SX-NS@ may operate 
unexpectedly.
7. Adhesion of solvent such as alcohol, thinner, trichlorobenzene or 
gasoline on the product should be avoided.
Such solvents make the marking on D40A illegible and cause 
deterioration of parts.
8. Do not use the D40A in a magnetic field of 1.5 mT or higher. The 
D40A may not function properly.
9. Do not use the D40A in the water or in an environment 
continuously exposed to water. Water may penetrate into the 
D40A. (The IP67 degree of protection for this switch means that it 
has been checked for penetration of water after having been left 
in water for a fixed period of time.)
10. Do not use the switch or actuator as a stopper. Protect the switch 
and the actuator by installing a stopper. Separate the switch and 
the actuator to a distance of 1 mm or more.
11. Install the actuator and switch at an appropriate distance so that 
they do not create a gap that provides access to the hazard.
