BRAND NEW, OPEN BOX. Littelfuse Hamlin Switches are the very best.

Note:  For multiple purchase lead length may vary between sealed boxes.

The Littelfuse Hamlin Magnetic/Reed Switch has two ferromagnetic blades (reeds) contained within a tubular glass envelope that is hermetically sealed at each end. The contacts on each reed blade have a thin layer of precious metal material deposited on them. There is usually nitrogen gas on the inside of the glass envelope to eliminate the presence of oxygen and ensure that the contacts will not oxidize. Hamlin Reed Switches are activated by a permanent magnet or an electromagnet. The magnetic field combination is commonly known as the "magnetic circuit", these are very popular for battery-powered applications. Because Reed switches can switch AC or DC loads, they are a popular choice for digital on/off applications. 

Capable of switching global mains voltage Excellent for switching micro-controller logic level loads Hermetically sealed switch contacts are not affected by and have no effect on their external environment Zero operating power is required for contact closure
