KSK-1A87 Series Reed Switch

The KSK-1A87 Series is a miniature, long-life reed switch designed for precision switching in compact and demanding environments. With a glass body length of 10.0 mm and diameter of 2.0 mm, this SPST-NO (Form A) switch supports switching voltages up to 200 VDC, currents up to 0.5 A, and a rated power of 10 W.

Its hermetically sealed construction ensures consistent performance in harsh conditions, while a wide operate range (10–40 AT) allows for flexible magnetic actuation. The KSK-1A87 is ideal for general-purpose, automotive, and test & measurement applications, offering high reliability and fast response times.
