The Moujen MN-5310 is a side mount mini limit switch with a top plunger push actuator, rated 10A at 250V AC with IP65 protection. A cam or moving part presses straight down on the plunger and the contacts change over, signalling the controller that the part has arrived.

At 10A it carries double the current of most mini switches in this size class, so it can switch a control circuit directly instead of going through an interface relay. The oil tight and waterproof IP65 body handles coolant spray, dust and washdown, which is where a cheaper sealed switch usually fails first.

Side mounting lets it sit flat along a machine frame or guide rail with the plunger facing up. The 0.1kg body is compact enough for tight fixtures while the MN series housing stays rigid under repeated impact. UL and CE approvals cover it for export machinery.

Where the part arrives from the side rather than from above, the lever limit switch AZ-7120 is the side mount alternative. For an angled approach, the cross roller plunger limit switch ME-8122 accepts contact from more than one direction, and the roller plunger limit switch AM-1308 adds a roller head at 15A for repeat cam duty.

If the contact point varies, the adjustable roller lever limit switch AZ-8108 and the adjustable rod limit switch AZ-8107 let you set the reach. For heavy plant outdoors, the big wheel limit switch AZ-5108L steps up to IP67.

FAQ,s

What is the MN-5310 rated for?

10A at 250V AC and 0.5A at 125V DC, with IP65 protection. The 10A rating lets it switch most control circuits directly.

What does IP65 mean on this switch?

The body is fully dust tight and resists low pressure water jets, so it works in coolant spray, washdown areas and dusty workshops.

What is a top plunger push actuator?

The actuator is a plunger on the top face. The moving part presses straight down on it, which suits cams and surfaces that approach in line with the switch rather than from the side.

What does side mount mean here?

The switch fixes flat on its side against a frame or bracket, leaving the plunger facing upward to meet the moving part.

How precise is the detection?

Operating speed runs from 0.01mm per second up to 50cm per second, so it handles very slow creeping travel as well as normal machine movement.
