Magnetic Reed Switch

The 59070 magnetic reed switch is a small barrel sensor with an M8 x 1.25 thread activated by a permanent magnet. Switching distance 12-20mm with SPST normally open or closed contacts. The sensor draws no current in the non-activated state, making it ideal for battery power applications. The sensor is also well suited to high moisture and contaminated environments. The reed contacts allow for millions of operations and will work through materials such as wood, plastic and aluminium.

Magnetic Reed Switch

Description

The 59070 threaded barrel magnetic reed switch is a small plastic sensor with a M8 x 1.25 thread. This sensor features SPST normally open or closed contacts. It is capable of switching up to 250VDC at 10W and operates through non-ferrous materials such as wood, plastic or aluminium. Simple installation and adjustment using supplied retaining nuts. Well suited for usage in high-moisture and contaminated environments. The non-contact solution, aesthetically more appealing than push-button or lever mechanical-type switches and ideal for battery-powered applications as the contacts do not draw power when in the non-activated state.
