Standex Detect reed relays use hermetically sealed reed switches as the core of their switching mechanism, delivering highly reliable performance across a wide range of applications. Capable of billions of operations, they can switch voltages up to 10,000 V and withstand up to 15,000 V, while also handling very low-level signals down to femtoamps and nanovolts. This versatility makes them ideal for applications requiring precision, stability, and a long operating life.
Our reed relays offer unique advantages over semiconductor and electromechanical relays, including low contact resistance (<150 milliohms), low capacitance, and high insulation resistance (>10^14 ohms). They can carry up to 5 A continuous and 10 A pulsed, operate within a 500 µs to 3 ms switching range, and withstand mechanical shock up to 150 G. Compact and efficient, Standex Detect reed relays are available in a broad range of package styles and pin configurations, with both standard and custom solutions designed to meet the exact needs of your application.
