SS431P Hall Effect Sensor
ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS*
WARNING
PERSONAL INJURY
• DO NOT USE these products as safety or
emergency stop devices, or in any other
application where failure of the product could
result in personal injury.
Failure to comply with these instructions could
result in death or serious injury.
SOLDERING/ASSEMBLY
Leads must be adequately supported during any
forming/ shearing operation to ensure that the leads
are not stressed inside the plastic case. Recommended PC board wave soldering temperature is
250 to 260
maximum.

*Absolute maximum ratings are the extreme limits that
the device will withstand without damage to the device.
However, the electrical and mechanical characteristics
are not guaranteed as the maximum limits (above
recommended operating conditions) are approached, nor
will the device necessarily operate at absolute maximum
ratings.
NOTICE
Interruption of power to a bipolar or latching
device may cause the output to change state when
power is restored. If a magnetic field of sufficient
strength is present, the sensor output will be in the
condition dictated by the magnetic field.
NOTE: The SS431P is a 2-wire, current output
sensor.
