Reed switches are a type of electromagnetic switch which controls the flow of electricity within a circuit. It is composed from at least two ferrous reeds in a small glass casing. Are magnetised and move when a magnetic field is moved towards the switch. Various contact configurations are available SPST (single pole, double throw).
Features and Benefits
• As there is no physical pressure on the switch there is no standard wear and tear.
• No voltage is needed
• All models are reliable and compact
• Glass tubes encasing the reed switches ensures that they are protected from corrosion.
