Reed liquid level sensors use magnetic floats and reed switch technology to detect fluid levels. As the float moves with the liquid, it activates reed switches housed within a stem, providing a reliable on/off signal or triggering multiple level points. These sensors are highly energy-efficient, drawing no power until activated, making them ideal for battery-powered or low-energy applications.
They are available in vertical or horizontal mount configurations and can be customized for various fluid types, temperatures, and pressures. With options for stainless steel or plastic housings, reed sensors offer a simple, cost-effective solution for fluid level monitoring in automotive, industrial, HVAC, and appliance systems.
Reliable Break-Before-Make Switching with Form C Reed Technology
Changeover reed switches, also known as Form C or SPDT (Single Pole Double Throw) switches, feature three contact leads and operate with a break-before-make switching sequence. This means one contact disconnects before the other connects, ensuring clean signal transitions and reducing the risk of short circuits.
Changeover reed switches are ideal for applications requiring reliable switching between two circuits, such as signal routing, sensor feedback, and control logic.
These switches can be integrated into standard sensors and reed relay assemblies, and custom configurations are available to meet specific design requirements.
- Ultra-long Holdover with improved ePRTC algorithm to provide up to 100 days of holdover within 100ns
- Jamming, spoofing detection
- High Accuracy White Rabbit PTP allowing sub-nanosecond time synchronization achievable through firmware upgrade, no additional hardware required
- 4x 10MHz Low Phase Noise (LPN)
Reliable and compact, our vertical mount liquid level sensors are designed for precise fluid detection in tight spaces. Ideal for industrial, medical, and automotive applications, these sensors offer customizable configurations to meet specific performance needs. Explore durable solutions for accurate level monitoring.
Hall effect position sensors offer a solid-state, non-contact solution for detecting magnetic fields and converting them into electrical signals. These sensors provide reliable analog or digital outputs for measuring linear or angular position, proximity, and speed. With options for rotary and linear sensing, they support detection angles from 90° to 360°, and are available in various housing styles including threaded, flange mount, and custom designs. Their durability, low power consumption, and resistance to shock and vibration make them ideal for automotive, industrial, and medical applications.
Flange and screw mount position sensors offer a durable, fixed-installation solution for detecting position, proximity, or motion in demanding environments. Available with reed switch or Hall effect technology, these sensors are housed in rugged rectangular or cylindrical enclosures with integrated mounting flanges or screw holes for easy alignment and installation. They support a wide range of electrical configurations and are ideal for applications in automation, transportation, medical devices, and industrial equipment. Their robust design ensures long-term performance in high-vibration, high-temperature, or outdoor conditions.
