Designed for High-Power Applications Requiring Up to 5 Amps Switching Capacity

Standex Electronics, a leading manufacturer of sensors and magnetic components, announces the release of the high power KSK-1A82 miniature reed switch.

At a maximum glass length of 16.5 and an overall lead length of 44.1mm, the KSK-1A82 provides an operating sensitivity range of 20 to 45 Ampere-turns (AT). With a carry current of up to 5 amps, the KSK-1A82 is ideal for high-current and high power applications. It’s hermetically sealed and can operate in temperatures ranging between -40C to 130C, making it suitable for use in almost any environment.

Applications are endless for KSK-1A82 miniature reed switches. They’re ideal for use within sensors; examples of which include proximity sensors, presence sensors, rotation sensors, speed sensors, liquid level sensors, and more. Movement detection, end limit detection, counting and many other functions are enabled by this high-quality switch when used within reed sensors or reed relays. Reed switches are essential for solutions required by a long list of industries, including Aerospace, Automotive, Household, Medical, and Telecommunications.

Standex Electronics offers a wide range of reed switches, in addition to reed sensors, floats, and magnetics. Standex Electronics specializes in customization, and the experts at Standex Electronics work directly customers to discuss their specific sensor requirements to find the best solution for their applications.
