Auto Switch Specifications
 It is possible to use in an 
environment which generates 
a magnetic field disturbance 
(AC magnetic field).
 A proper operating range can 
be determined by the color of 
the light. 
(Red → Green ← Red) 
Precautions
Caution
For single-phase AC welding machines
If it is used for current inverter welders 
(including rectifying type) and condenser 
type welders, the magnetic field resistance is 
reduced. Please contact SMC regarding the 
performance.

Magnetic Field Resistance
Dimensions
If the current of the AC welding machine is 16000 A or lower, the auto switch can be used, even if the 
distance between the welding conductor (gun cable) and the cylinder/actuator or auto switch is 0 mm.
Please contact SMC when the AC welding current exceeds 16000 A.
∗ When the auto switch is ordered on its own, the auto switch mounting bracket is not enclosed. 
In that case, please order it separately. 
Note) A white color heat 
shrink tube is attached 
to the D-P3DWSE 
type only.
