Greenco's Reed Switch
consists of a hermetically sealed glass capsule containing two
cantilevered ferromagnetic blades. The blades come together and
close the electrical circuit whenever the magnet, mounted on the
piston, passes under the response area of the switch.
An integral arc suppressing resistor-capacitor circuit protects
blade contacts from voltage spikes, thereby extending cycle life.
The lead wires" are shielded to protect against sending or receiving
induced currents as false signals. The shield may be "drained" using
uninsulated third wire. An ohmmeter is recommended to test the
switch function. DO NOT USE an incandescent light bulb as high
in-rush may damage switch.
The comprehensive design of the
cylinder barrel thickness and mass of magnet, coupled with low
profile switch provides sensitivity, dependability, repeatability
and desired response time. PROXIMITY and GO switches also available.
Contact factory for additional information.
Note: Reed switch wires are 6' long.
