Compact, Low-Power Sensors Ideal for Position Detection in Safety and Industrial Applications
Standex Electronics, a leading manufacturer of precise, reliable and long-lasting sensors and magnetic components worldwide, announces its MK15 magnetically operated reed proximity sensors for surface-mount device (SMD) mounting, ideal for electronic PCBs where all components are surface-mounted.
Designed for high-requirement applications, the MK15 is the perfect choice for position detection in safety components and proximity sensors in medical products. It is also excellent for telecommunications, white goods, industrial and automotive applications such as meter counting sensors, lid detectors and alarm sensors.
With its small dimensions, only 19.5×2.5×2.5 millimetres, and efficient internal structure, the MK15 is excellent for low-power operation, requiring no external power for sensor operation. Two lead designs are available: flat, straight leads for PCB slot mounting and flat, bent Gull-wing SMD leads. This product is also available in six operating sensitivities.
