Reliable Magnetic Switching for High Voltage Applications
The high voltage reed switch series delivers reliable magnetic switching for applications requiring elevated voltage and current handling. Capable of switching up to 10,000 VDC and with breakdown voltages reaching 15,000 VDC, these switches are engineered for high-performance environments such as photovoltaic systems, medical equipment, and automated test systems.
Available in glass body lengths starting at 14 mm, the series includes surface mount (SMD), through-hole, and free-standing options. These reed switches can carry continuous currents up to 15 Amps and pulsed currents up to 30 Amps, making them ideal for proximity, position, motion, and end-limit sensing.
For enhanced durability and simplified integration, these switches can be packaged as high voltage reed relays. Popular relay series such as H, HE, HM, KT, SHV, LI, and BE provide a range of contact configurations and insulation resistance exceeding 10¹³ Ohms, supporting both pick-and-place automation and high-voltage isolation.
- High Intensity: up to 9x brighter than the existing SL191 Pattern Projecting Spot Light and more than 3x brighter than the leading competitive structured light projector.
- Projection patterns are easily configured with available reticles, including line, grid, cross, multiple lines, and half sphere, with custom reticles available.
- Customizable: available in multiple wavelengths, including white.
- Constructed with a large heat sink for improved LED thermal management to facilitate increased brightness while maintaining safe operating temperatures.
- Ideal solution for machine vision inspection applications requiring structured illumination, including edge detection, locating offsets, and assessing topography.
- Requires a reticle and lens (sold separately); see available reticles here.
Reed Relay Modules integrate multiple high-performance reed relays into compact, ready-to-use packages for efficient signal switching in space-constrained designs. Available in 8-channel configurations, these modules simplify circuit design by combining switching functionality with integrated driver electronics and advanced packaging.
The RM05-8A-SP Series features an 8-pole relay configuration housed in a dual-in-line through-hole package, equipped with MAX4823 integrated drivers and kickback protection—eliminating the need for external activation circuitry and reducing PCB footprint.
High insulation resistance reed relays are designed for ultra-low leakage current performance, making them ideal for precision applications where signal integrity and isolation are critical. Engineered with specialized materials, extended creepage distances, and optimized internal geometry, these relays achieve insulation resistance levels up to 100 tera-ohms (TΩ) and in some cases, even 1,000 TΩ resulting in leakage currents in the picoampere range or lower.
These relays are available in configurations that support switching voltages up to 1,000 VDC and breakdown voltages up to 4,500 VDC, with custom options reaching 10,000 VDC switching and 15,000 VDC breakdown. Their high isolation and dielectric strength make them ideal for automated test equipment (ATE), semiconductor testing, and precision measurement systems where even the smallest leakage can impact results.
Compact, reliable, and built for demanding environments, High Insulation Resistance reed relays offer unmatched performance in high-voltage, low-leakage applications.
Specialized relays for ultra-high voltage applications exceeding 1.5kV. Ideal for isolation in medical devices, renewable energy systems, and advanced industrial equipment.
