Clare's Molded Mini DYAD dry reed switches are ideally
suited for small switching signal applications. This switch
has sputtered tuthenium contacts and an extraordinary
seal strength, achieved by a patented laser sealing of the
glass. In a low level or dry switching environments, both
switches typically provide >1 billion operations. The
switches have hermetically sealed contacts and offer a
wide range of available magnetic sensitivities. In addition,
the molding process provides a solid plastic outer shell.
This plastic shell provides superior mechanical strength,
Applications
• Security
eliminates concerns over handling glass switches, and
provides an ideal solution for high speed, automated
assembly environments.
− Proximity sensing
− Smoke alarms
• Automotive
− Level sensor
− Lamp current sensor
• Relays
Ordering Information
A complete part number is represented by the digits to the
right. For example, CM10S2030 is a MOLDED MINIDYAD™ with a minimum operate value of 10NI and a
maximum of 30NI. Refer to the switch operating specification charts for available ranges. Special ranges are available
upon request.
