Description

Clares Molded Mini DYAD dry reed switches are ideally suited for small switching signal applications. This switch has sputtered tuthenium contacts and an extraordinary seal strength, achieved by a patented laser sealing of the glass. In a low level or dry switching environments, both switches typically provide >1 billion operations. The switches have hermetically sealed contacts and offer a wide range of available magnetic sensitivities. In addition, the molding process provides a solid plastic outer shell. This plastic shell provides superior mechanical strength, eliminates concerns over handling glass switches, and provides an ideal solution for high speed, automated assembly environments
