Standex Detect - Hall Effect Proximity Sensors
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.
More Product Information
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.
Our Packaged Magnet portfolio features precision-engineered magnets housed in durable enclosures for seamless integration with reed and Hall effect sensors. Designed to simplify installation and enhance magnetic performance, these assemblies offer consistent field strength, mechanical protection, and optimized alignment for sensing applications. Ideal for automotive, industrial, and medical environments, our packaged magnets ensure reliable actuation and long-term durability in demanding conditions.
Cylindrical proximity sensors are housed in round enclosures for easy mounting in tight or standardized spaces. Available with Reed or Hall effect technology, they provide reliable detection of magnetic or metallic targets.
- The DF242 is characterized as a Large 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 easily with a low-angle dark field illuminator.
- With a light intensity of 24kLux at a working distance of 1” (25mm), the DF242 is perfect for imaging problems with medium sized fields of view.
- A 35mm field of view is standard with optional fields of view of 45 and 70mm.
- Available in a range of wavelengths from UV to IR.
*Engineered to provide comparable optical characteristics to our previous RL1660.
These sensors detect the presence or movement of a magnet, enabling precise position or proximity monitoring. Available in Reed or Hall effect versions, they are used in medical, industrial, and consumer devices.
- Wide Range Power: 400 to 1,000 W
- Fuel Compatibility: Xenon (also compatible with Krypton)
- High Total Impulsive and Reliability Level
Specialized relays for ultra-high voltage applications exceeding 1.5kV. Ideal for isolation in medical devices, renewable energy systems, and advanced industrial equipment.
Intrinsically safe reed relays and optocouplers are engineered for use in hazardous environments where ignition prevention is critical. Certified to ATEX standards and tested to ensure they do not become ignition sources, even in the presence of short circuits or adjacent component failures—these components are ideal for applications in explosive atmospheres such as mining, chemical processing, refineries, and power stations.
Designed to meet EN50020 safety standards, these relays and optocouplers feature tightly controlled air and creepage paths, high dielectric strength, and low-voltage coil inputs. With a maximum peak voltage of 375 V across input and output, and isolation distances up to 10 mm, they ensure safe operation under overload conditions. The Comparative Tracking Index (CTI) of the plastics used exceeds 175, and internal potting compounds provide additional insulation for long-term reliability.
- Designed for Orbit-Topping and Station Keeping
- 40% Weight Saving Convention Propulsion
- Excellent Thrust-to-Electrical Power Ratio
