MK15 SERIES REED SENSOR

Product catalog summary

Overview: The MK15 Series Reed Sensors are designed for low power operations and are supplied in Tape & Reel. They are suitable for applications such as on/off control switches, position detection, and switching elements, serving markets like appliances, telecommunications, security, and medical sectors.

Specifications:

Rated Power: Maximum 10 W (DC combination of V&A not to exceed individual max).
Switching Voltage: Maximum 180 V (DC or peak AC).
Switching Current: Maximum 0.5 A (DC or peak AC).
Carry Current: Maximum 1.0 A (DC or peak AC).
Contact Resistance: Maximum 150 mOhm at 0.5V & 50mA.
Breakdown Voltage: Minimum 0.2 kVDC according to EN60255-5.
Operating Time: Maximum 0.5 ms including bounce.
Release Time: Maximum 0.05 ms with no coil excitation.
Insulation Resistance: Typical 10¹⁰ Ohm at 100V test voltage.
Capacitance: Typical 0.3 pF at 10kHz across open switch.

Housing and Lead Specifications:

Housing Material: Mineral Filled Epoxy, Black color.
Lead Design: Two options - flat, straight leads for PCB slot mounting or flat, bent SMD leads.

Contact Forms:

Form A: Normally Open Contacts (SPST).
Form B: Normally Closed Contacts (SPST).
Form C: Changeover (SPDT).

Magnetic Sensitivity: Sensitivity ranges from A to G, with AT values from 05-10 to 35-40.

Environmental Data:

Shock Resistance: Maximum 30 g (1/2 sine wave duration 11ms).
Vibration Resistance: Maximum 20 g.
Operating Temperature: -40 to 130 °C.
Storage Temperature: -50 to 130 °C.
Soldering Temperature: Maximum 260 °C for 5 seconds.

Handling & Assembly Instructions:

Use proper lead clamping or heat sinking techniques to prevent mechanical and/or heat stress during soldering and welding.
Avoid mechanical shock from dropping the sensor from distances greater than 12 inches.
Follow reflow soldering conditions according to JEDEC norm J-STD-020D.1.

Life Test Data: Load increase reduces life expectancy of Reed Switches. Typical number of operations varies with load, ranging from 1E+05 to 1E+10 depending on voltage and current.
