Reed Switch Magnets

Reed switch magnets are essential components used in various electronic and industrial applications around the UK. These magnets work in combination with reed switches to detect magnetic fields, triggering contact closure or opening in the switch. Known for their precision, reliability, and non-contact operation, reed switch magnets are ideal for low-power, low-current environments. They offer a cost-effective solution for sensing, security, and automation tasks where accurate magnetic detection is required. Moreover, reed switch magnets are used to enable contactless sensing, which reduces wear and increases durability. They are ideal for applications needing precise activation without physical contact.

How Do Reed Switch Magnets Work?

 When the magnet is brought near a reed switch, its magnetic field causes the reed switch’s internal ferrous contacts to close or open, depending on configuration, completing or breaking a circuit.
