Highlights
♦ Normally Open Form A contact ♦ 10.0W Contact Rating ♦ Does not require power for operation ♦ Sputtered Ruthenium contact ♦ Omni-polar device; actuates with either pole of magnet ♦ 10.1 mm pin pitch ♦ Two magnetic sensitivity bands ♦ RoHS Compliant and Lead-free ♦ Not Sensitive to ESD ♦
Description
This ultra miniature PCB mountable reed sensor is designed for switching 10W. The internal blades always parallel to the top surface of the sensor. The sensors are tested 100% for operate and release AT, Contact Resistance and Variable Contact Resistance before packing. Being an omnipolar device, this sensor can be actuated with either a north pole or a south pole or both. Choosing the right AT band, magnet strength, and operating axis, will restrict the number of operates and releases to one.
