STANDEXMEDER MK06 Series Potted Reed Switch 20mm Sensing Distance

The STANDEXMEDER MK06 Series Potted Reed Switch is a compact and robust sensing component, offering reliable non-contact switching in a wide range of applications. Designed for precision, it provides a maximum sensing distance of up to 20mm, ensuring accurate detection without physical contact. This feature makes it an ideal choice for monitoring positions, detecting movements, or counting objects in automated systems.

Engineered for durability, the switch operates effectively within a broad temperature range from -20°C to 85°C, making it suitable for use in diverse environments, including those subject to temperature fluctuations. Its potted construction provides enhanced protection against moisture, dust, vibration, and other harsh conditions, contributing to a long operational lifespan and consistent performance.

The MK06 Series is synonymous with quality and reliability from STANDEXMEDER, a trusted name in reed switch technology. Its small, rectangular form factor, measuring 43mm in height, 33mm in width, and 15mm in depth, allows for easy integration into space-constrained designs. With a minimal weight of just 5 grams, it adds negligible load to assemblies, perfect for portable devices or lightweight mechanisms.

Common applications include use in security systems for door/window sensing, industrial machinery for position feedback, medical equipment for fluid level detection, and consumer electronics for lid-open detection. This versatile component is a fundamental part of creating reliable, maintenance-free sensing solutions where electrical isolation and hermetically sealed contacts are required.
