Changeover Reed Switch |

A changeover reed switch has three contact leads. Form C or double throw switch described the switching function as break-before-make. The switching sequence is as follows. One contact opens its connection to another contact and then closes its connection to a third contact. Furthermore contact configuration is the number of switches or poles used in a component. So a single pole double throw (SPDT) device contains a single changeover switch. Likewise double pole double throw (DPDT) contains to 2 changeover switches in a component. Finally changeover reed switches can also be used in a normally closed or Form B contact configuration. Standex offers a 100 watt high power KSK-1C10 switch for changeover applications. And for even greater versatility the ORT551 series form C changeover switch meets most application requirements. We package the ORT551 series in one of two ways. One is a miniature 14mm bare glass surface mount version MK23-90. And the second version is the environmentally sealed SMD MK01 series. Furthermore both series come in tape and reel packaging per IEC 286/part 3 standards. So manufacturing is easy with pick and place automation. Standex Electronics also integrates the ORT551 into various standard sensor and reed relay series. Don't see what you're looking for? We specialize in value-add and custom assembly.
