  1. *1Water resistant type auto switches can be mounted on the above models. However, the water resistance cannot be guaranteed. Check with the manufacturer regarding water-resistant types for the above model numbers.
  2. *2 The type with a 1 m lead wire only supports D-A93.
  • *When mounting D-A9□ (V), M9□ (V), M9□W (V), or M9□A (V) types on a side other than the port side with ø32 to 50 (32‑mm to 50‑mm diameter) cylinders, order auto switch mounting brackets separately.
  • *Please note that it may not be possible to retrofit the auto switch when using mounting support brackets (foot/flange style).
