Reed Switches Overview:
Introduction
Reed Switches consist of two flat
ferromagnetic reeds sealed in an inert atmosphere within a glass capsule. In
the presence of a magnetic field the reeds are attracted to each other and
close to complete the magnetic and electric circuit. Our reed switches are
manufactured to the highest standards ensuring long life and consistent
performance. Reed Switches are available in a wide range of formats and contact
ratings. Applications range from power switching in explosive atmospheres to
flip-top mobile phones.
