The plastic-sealed reed switch consists of a pair of tongue springs made of magnetic materials, which are sealed in a glass tube filled with inert gas. The end faces of the tongue springs overlap with each other but leave a small gap. The end contact of the tongue spring is plated with a layer of precious metal, such as germanium or ruthenium makes the switch have stable characteristics and long service life.
Plastic-sealed reed switch, also known as reed tube or magnetic reed switch, is a kind of magnetic sensitive special switch. The whole series is wrapped by ABS environmental protection plastic or epoxy resin (high temperature resistance up to 300°C can be wave soldered). Battery module widely use in vacuum cleaner
Block, electronic lock, humidifier, coffee machine, liquid level sensor, beauty instrument, diving equipment, smart toys, instruments, electric meters, water meter, gas meter, smart home, burglar alarm, sports equipment and so on!
Working principle:
Normally open type: the magnet approaches, the switch closes, the magnet leaves, and the switch opens; (In laymans terms, the light is on when the magnet approaches, and the light is off when the magnet leaves. )
Normally closed: the magnet approaches, the switch opens, the magnet leaves, and the switch closes; (In laymans terms, the light turns off when the magnet approaches, and lights up when the magnet leaves. )
