KSK-1A55 Series Reed Switch

The KSK-1A55 Series is a high-power reed switch designed for reliable switching in demanding environments. With a glass body length of 16.5 mm and diameter of 2.8 mm, this SPST-NO (Form A) switch supports switching voltages up to 100 VDC and currents up to 0.5 A, with a rated power of 50 W.

Its hermetically sealed construction ensures long-term durability and consistent performance, while a wide operate range (15–60 AT) provides flexibility for various magnetic actuation conditions. The KSK-1A55 is ideal for general-purpose, test and measurement, and high-power applications.
