High-voltage Switch

By R&D Editors | April 28, 2014

Standex-Meder Electronics offers KSK-1A35/1 miniature reed switch. At a maximum glass length of 10.5 and an overall lead length of 34.5mm, the KSK-1A35/1 can work with applications that may require the extra sensitivity of an ultra-miniature reed switch, while also providing an operating sensitivity range of 20 to 35 Ampere-turns (AT).

With electrical characteristics like a switching voltage of up to 1000 volts of direct or alternating current, the KSK-1A35/1 is suitable for line or high-voltage applications. It’s hermetically sealed and can operate in temperatures ranging between -40C to 125C.
 
The KSK-1A35/1 has flat surface mount leads, enabling paddle orientation and surface mount behaviors. Its ruthenium contacts are available in form 1A (SPST) (normally open contact), center gap and typical operating and release times are .5 milliseconds and .2 milliseconds, respectively. The KSK-1A35 /1 reed switch operates for millions of switching cycles over its vast lifetime. It consumes no power, gives off zero emissions, and is REACH and RoHS compliant.

The switches are intended for use within sensors; examples of which include proximity sensors, presence sensors, rotation sensors, speed sensors, and liquid level sensors. 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.
