The Omron D4GS-N4R-3 is a slim safety door switch with 3NC slow-action contacts, built for guarding access points on machinery where space is tight. The 3 m cable gives you reach to the control cabinet without a junction box. Horizontal key insertion (R-type) means the actuator enters from the side — plan the mounting orientation accordingly. Rated conventional free air thermal current (Ith) is 2.5 A per EN60947-5-1, and the conditional short-circuit current is 100 A — so the switch can handle typical control-circuit fault levels downstream of a 100 A fuse or breaker. Operating speed range is 0.1 to 0.5 m/s; outside that window the slow-action contacts may not engage cleanly. Maximum 30 operations per minute keeps the mechanical life predictable.

Frequently asked questions
Where can I buy the D4GS-N4R-3 and get current pricing?
The D4GS-N4R-3 is available to order through independent distribution. Submit an RFQ for current pricing and availability — we confirm both at quote time.
What does the 3NC contact configuration mean for my safety circuit?
Three normally-closed contacts in series provide a redundant safety path — if any one contact fails to open, the circuit stays open. This meets the redundancy requirements for PL d / SIL 2 applications when wired correctly.
What is the operating speed range for the D4GS-N4R-3?
The operating speed is 0.1 to 0.5 m/s. Slower than 0.1 m/s may cause the slow-action contacts to hesitate; faster than 0.5 m/s risks incomplete contact transfer.
