MK11 PLASTIC SERIES REED SENSOR

Product catalog summary

Overview: The MK11/M8 Series Reed Sensors are cylindrical sensors available in various case sizes and cable terminations. They are suitable for applications such as door and window contacts, safety control, and position sensing, serving markets like appliances, industrial, and security.

Specifications:

Rated Power: Maximum of 10W or 100W depending on the model.
Switching Voltage: Up to 1000V DC or peak AC.
Switching Current: Maximum of 1.0A DC or peak AC.
Contact Resistance: Maximum of 150 mOhm.
Breakdown Voltage: Minimum of 0.2 kVDC according to EN60255-5.
Operating and Release Time: Maximum of 1.1 ms and 1.5 ms respectively.
Insulation Resistance: Typically 10^9 to 10^10 Ohm.
Capacitance: Typically 0.3 to 1.5 pF.

Housing and Lead Specifications:

Material: Crastin with black color and polyurethane sealing compound.
Cable Type: Available in flat or round PVC cables.
Environmental Resistance: Shock resistance up to 50g and vibration resistance up to 20g.
Operating Temperature: -30 to 70°C for stationary cables, -5 to 70°C for moving cables.

Handling & Assembly Instructions:

Maximum torque for nuts is 1Nm.
Cable bending-radius should be diameter x 15.
Minimum bending distance to housing is 5mm.
Avoid mounting on iron to prevent decreased switching distance.
Use non-magnetic screws and consider a series resistor for cable lengths over 5m.

Life Test Data: The life expectancy of reed switches decreases with increased load. Typical operations range from 10^5 to 10^10 depending on the load and model.

Additional Notes: The datasheet may contain inaccuracies and is subject to change. For the most current specifications, contact the nearest sales office.
