HL-5000

Mounting

To mount the Limit Switch securely, be sure to use two M5 Allenhead
bolts and washers. 
The tightening torque applied to each bolt is 4.90 to 5.88 N·m. To 
mount the Limit Switch more securely, use two M5 screw holes on the 
rear panel and rear holes for positioning if the model is the HL-

@@@

G-Series Limit Switches.

Only the HL-5

@@@

G has M5 x 0.8 screw holes on the rear side.

Others

Do not use the Limit Switch outdoors, otherwise the Limit Switch will 
become damaged by rust or ozone.

The Limit Switch is not suitable in places exposed to the spray of 
rainwater, seawater, or oily water. Consult your OMRON 
representative for models resisting rainwater, seawater, and oily 
water.

If high-sealing performance is required along with shielded wiring or 
conduit wiring, use the D4C or WL.

Using the Switches

Actuator Position Change 

(HL-5000, HL-5030, HL-5050)

To change the angle of the actuator, loosen the Allen-head bolt on the 
side of the actuator lever. Then the actuator can be set at any angle.

Head Direction Change

(HL-5000, HL-5030, HL-5050, HL5200)

To change the head direction, loosen the two mounting screws. Then 
the head can be changed at 90

°

 increments in one of four directions.

The head of the HL-5200 can be mounted in two directions only.
