MICRO SWITCH™ ZX Series
Subminiature Basic Switches
Honeywell’s MICRO SWITCH™ ZX Series is a subminiature snap-action switch from the family of Z series
subminiature basic switches. Although small in size, the ZX Series is rated for controlling electrical loads ranging from
logic-level/computer-based circuits to limited power-duty switching (up to 3 A/125 Vac). The ZX subminiature switch
package is available with either solder terminals or a variety of different styles of printed circuit board (PCB) terminals
to fulfill the requirements for electrical connectivity.
A wide variety of stainless steel levers are available and when combined with the subminiature package size, can
adapt the ZX Series to a wide range of applications. To enhance the versatility of ZX switches, the family is certified to
UL, cUL, ENEC, and CQC for worldwide use. The ZX Series is the right choice for a cost-effective subminiature switch
package.

Features
and Benefits
SMALL PACKAGE SIZE
Subminiature package size
(6,5 mm x 12,8 mm [0.25 in x 0.50 in]) allows the
MICRO SWITCH™ ZX Series switch to fit in applications where other sensors or
switches are too large.
Enhanced performance in a compact package
WELL SUITED FOR POWER-DUTY AND LOGIC-LEVEL LOADS
ZX switch design helps assure control of limited
power-duty switching
with silver
contacts or
logic-level
(low voltage, and milliamperes) with gold-plated contacts.
DESIGN FLEXIBILITY
Designed with a
pin plunger
for actuation, the ZX Series is also available with
various styles of levers.
The optional levers expand the versatility of the switch
in the application. In addition, the ZX Series features a
variety of terminations
designed to provide flexibility for the electrical connectivity. Certified to
cUL, UL,
ENEC, and CQC
for global applications, as well as RoHS compliant.
WORLDWIDE AVAILABILITY
Entire family of ZX switches is available worldwide through Honeywell’s network.

Operating force is measured at the plunger. Adding an actuator/lever will change the operating force. See pages 6 and 7 for operating forces.
4
Lever length dimension is measured as follows: Straight lever - from center line of lever pivot to end of lever;
Roller and simulated roller lever - from center line of pivot to center of roller diameter. See page 8 for dimension details.
