High Power Magnetic Switching for Demanding Applications
The high-power reed switch series offers robust magnetic switching solutions capable of handling up to 120 W and voltages as high as 1,000 VDC. Designed for demanding applications, these reed switches are available in various sizes starting from 14 mm, including surface mount and through-hole options for flexible integration.
These switches are ideal for proximity, position, motion, and end-limit sensing, and can also be packaged into high power reed relays for enhanced durability and simplified PCB mounting. Relay packaging supports both pick-and-place automation and high insulation resistance, with some models exceeding 10¹³ Ohms.
Popular series such as KT, SHV, LI, and BE offer a range of contact configurations, including SPST, SPDT, and multi-switch designs. Whether used in automotive systems or test and measurement equipment, these high-power reed switches deliver reliable performance where high voltage and current demands are critical.
Custom solutions are also available to meet specific design requirements.
- The DF241 is characterized as a Small Low Angle Dark Field ring light.
- Precisely aimed LEDs provide a very low angle of incidence, radial illumination pattern.
- A scratch on a sheet of glass is a good example of a defect that can be detected with a low-angle dark field illuminator.
- With a light intensity of 24kLux at a working distance of ½” (12.5mm), the DF241 is perfect for imaging problems limited to a small field of view.
- A 25mm field of view is standard with an optional field of view of 35mm.
- Available in a range of wavelengths from UV to IR.
*Engineered to provide comparable optical characteristics to our previous RL1360.
- Precise programming of voltage and current slew rate for sensitive loads.
- Industrial field bus interfaces (Modbus-TCP, Modbus-RTU, Ethernet) enable real-time digital control.
- Built-in power quality monitoring detects and saves input voltage anomalies which can be saved for later diagnostic analysis.
- Programmable analog interface scaling facilitates integrating the ASD FLX with existing systems easily.
- Built-in energy meter calculates the delivered energy throughout a process or period.
- Optional real-time clock enables accurate timestamping of events.
Compact Photo-MOSFET relays in Small Outline Package (SOP) format, offering space-saving solutions for densely populated PCBs. Suitable for surface-mount applications requiring reliable signal isolation and low leakage.
Hall effect proximity sensors detect magnetic fields and convert them into electrical signals. They offer high accuracy, durability, and are suitable for linear or angular position sensing in dynamic environments.
- Large switching capacity in a small footprint
- Switch up to 16 A current - highest in its class
