Smallest Subminiature Flange Mount Reed Sensors for Security Control and Factory Automation
Littelfuse, Inc. has introduced the 59155 and 59156 subminiature flange mount reed sensors. These sensors, designed for compactness and contactless activation, cater to industries with tight-spacing requirements.
They come with normally open contacts and handle switching operations at 120 Vac / 170 Vdc with a power rating of 10 W. Mounting options include an M2 screw at a maximum torque of 0.1 Nm or adhesive mounting. The sensors feature customizable and space-efficient designs for various installation setups. The contactless activation mechanism improves operational reliability and safeguards the sensors from environmental factors, enhancing their lifespan.
