Standex Electronics Unveils 3.7 mm Magnetic Reed Switch
Cincinnati, OH – Standex Electronics introduces the smallest magnetic reed switch in the world – measuring just 3.7 mm in length. In addition to being able to fit in very small spaces, the GR150 also maintains a very narrow sensitivity range. With a magnetic sensitivity of 2-4 Ampere Turns (AT), typical operating time of 0.2 […]
Equal to the Toughest Tasks – The Position Sensor with Patented Pressure Equalization
Novotechnik’s new LWX Series of heavy-duty sealed position transducers is engineered for extreme operating environments where high temperatures, vibration, high-pressure equipment wash downs, grease, and other contaminants are present. The patented pressure equalization technology prevents buildup or the “pump effect” that can degrade operation in repetitive mechanical, vehicle, automation and robotic applications. Key specs include: […]
