COMUS RI-80 SMD Reed Switch, SPST-NO, 175V, 350mA

The COMUS RI-80 SMD Reed Switch is an ultra-micro, single-pole single-throw (SPST) dry-reed switch, hermetically sealed within a gas-filled glass envelope. Featuring a normally open (NO) contact configuration, it contains two magnetically actuated reeds and is designed for reliable, long-life performance in demanding electronic applications.

This double-ended switch can be actuated by an electromagnet, a permanent magnet, or a combination of both, offering great versatility in circuit design. Key to its durability are the gold, sputtered ruthenium contact layers, which ensure low and stable contact resistance, enhancing electrical performance and switch longevity.

The component boasts a superior glass-to-metal seal and precise blade alignment, providing excellent hermetic integrity and resistance to environmental factors. As a surface-mount device (SMD), it is ideal for automated assembly processes, saving space and streamlining production in modern PCB designs.

With a maximum switching capability of 175V and 350mA, and a peak switching power of 5W, this reed switch is suitable for a wide range of low to medium-power signalling and switching tasks. Its compact SMD footprint makes it a perfect choice for space-constrained applications where reliability is non-negotiable.
