Thermal Reed Sensors use special alloy magnets that cut off and required temperatures. These devices can be used to accurately sense temperature changes in solids, semi-solids, liquids, or gases, and can switch low level signal loads of up to 10W. Unlike bi-metallic strips, the switching point is unaffected by the load current and the switching temperature is highly repeatable between 1°C to 3°C. Thermal Reed Sensors can also be used to switch signal loads as low as 10 micro-amps.

As the manufacture of these Thermal Reed Switches is limited, please check with our Sales team for actual volumes and temperature ranges available.
