MK23-80 Series Surface Mount Reed Switch
The MK23-80 Series is an ultraminiature bare glass surface-mount (SMD) reed sensor designed for compact, high-reliability switching in automated electronic assemblies. With a 7.0mm glass length and 1.8mm diameter, it offers a cost-effective and space-saving alternative to over-molded sensors. Ideal for on/off control, position, motion, and proximity detection in high-volume production environments.
The MK23-80 Series delivers reliable magnetic sensing in an ultracompact, high-voltage-ready format, making it a trusted solution for OEMs and engineers designing in space-constrained or automated environments.
