The Reed Switch operates on a simple magnetic principle: two ferromagnetic reeds inside a sealed glass tube are drawn together to close the circuit when an external magnetic field is applied. Upon removal of the field, the reeds separate, opening the circuit. This hermetically sealed construction protects the contacts from dust, moisture, and oxidation, ensuring long-term reliability.
With a maximum switching voltage of 300 VDC and a current rating of 0.55 A, this switch is suitable for low-power signal switching and detection circuits. Its high insulation resistance and robust design make it a dependable component for position sensing, security systems, and proximity detection in both prototyping and industrial applications.
