RI-02 Series
Ultra-miniature dry-reed switch hermetically sealed in a gas-
filled envelope. Single-pole, single-throw (SPST) type, having
normally open contacts, and containing two magnetically
actuated reeds.
The switch is of the double-ended type and may be actuated
by an electromagnet, a permanent magnet or a combination of
both.
The device is intended for use in relays, sensors, pulse
counters or similar devices.
RI-02 Series Features
Superior glass-to-metal seal and blade alignment
Ideal for General Purpose reed relays and sensors
Contact layers: Ruthenium on gold
