📝 Description
The reduced miniature PCB mountable reed sensor featured here is expertly engineered to handle switching loads of up to 10W with precision and reliability. Its internal blades are aligned parallel to the sensor’s top surface, ensuring consistent sensing performance and durability in various operating conditions.
Before shipment, each of these reduced miniature PCB mountable reed sensors undergo comprehensive 100% testing to validate its operational capabilities. This testing regimen includes meticulous evaluations of operate and release times (AT), as well as assessments for Contact Resistance and Variable Contact Resistance. These tests guarantee that every sensor meets stringent quality standards before it is packaged and delivered to customers, ensuring optimal performance straight out of the box.
As an omnipolar device, this sensor boasts the flexibility to respond to magnetic fields from either a north pole, south pole, or both, providing versatility in magnetic orientation. Engineers can fine-tune the sensor’s response by selecting the appropriate AT band, magnet strength, and operating axis.
Due to its compact form factor and robust design, this reduced miniature PCB mountable reed sensor is ideally suited for integration into space-constrained electronic assemblies across a wide range of industries. Whether deployed in consumer electronics, automotive systems, or industrial machinery, its reliable performance and adaptable magnetic characteristics make it a preferred choice for engineers seeking efficient and dependable switching solutions.
