SOLDERING RECOMMENDATIONS
Allterminalsaresolderplated.Propersol-
dering and cleaning procedures must be
followed to maintain the reliability of AML
products during installation. An instruc-
tion sheet which outlines these proce-
dures is included with AML shipments.
You may also obtain a copy from your
MICRO SWITCH Sales Office. Request
PK 8518.
Asageneralguide,thefollowinginforma-
tion may be used:
Use a 280
°
C (538
°
F) solder iron tip, up to
6 seconds duration, with a 60-40 rosin
core solder. This allows the terminal to
heatquicklyontheexteriorofthehousing
only, and greatly reduces the chance of
flux migrating inside the housing.
LED APPLICATION INFORMATION
Forthosedeviceswithoutinternalcurrent
limitingresistors,suitableexternalcontrol
of the LED current must be provided. It is
recommended that a minimum of 5 VDC
