59060 Series Stainless Steel Threaded Barrel Reed Sensor
Brand: Littelfuse, Inc.A small, stainless steel barrel sensor with an M8 x 1.25mm pitch thread, 36mm (1.420") long with a choice of normally open, normally open high-voltage, normally closed or changeover contacts. Capable of switching up to 265Vac/300Vdc at 10VA. Available with a range of sensitivity, cable length and connector options. Ideally suited for position and limit sensing, security, linear actuator and industrial process applications. Functions best with the 57060 actuator.
Note: The 57060 actuator is sold separately.
Features:
- Magnetically-operated proximity sensor
- Operates through non-ferrous materials such as wood, plastic or aluminum
- Stainless steel threaded barrel with retaining nuts
- M8 thread
- Options of normally open or high-voltage contacts
- Customer-defined sensitivity
- Custom cable length and connector options available
Benefits:
- Simple installation and adjustment using supplied retaining nuts
- Well suited for usage in high-moisture and contaminated environments
- Non-contact solution, aesthetically more appealing than push-button or lever mechanical-type switches
- Ideal for battery-powered applications as the contacts do not draw power when in the non-activated state
- Reed contacts last for millions of operating cycles under micro-controller voltage and current logic-level loads
Applications:
- Position and limit switching
- Security
- Industrial process control
- Linear actuators
