FLEX-14 Magnetic Reed Switches
Hamlin's Flex-14 reed switches ideally suited for signal switching applications
Littelfuse's sub-miniature, normally open magnetic reed switches are 14.00 mm long with a 2.28 mm diameter glass envelope. These switches also have longer than standard, flexible, and easily formed leads that are capable of switching 200 VDC at 10 W. The devices have a sensitivity range 10-30 AT, high insulation resistance of 1010 Ω minimum, and low contact resistance of less than 100 mΩ. These switches are ideally suited to signal switching applications, reed relay, security, metering, limit sensing, and telecom applications as well as office equipment and household appliances.
