SKU: SF-COM-08642

This is a small device called a reed switch. When the device is exposed to a magnetic field, the two ferrous materials inside the switch pull together and the switch closes. When the magnetic field is removed, the reeds separate and the switch opens. This makes for a great non-contact switch. ...

SKU: SF-COM-10601

An insulated reed switch that closes when exposed to a magnetic field and opens when the field is removed. The encapsulated design is more durable than glass reed switches and can be easily populated on a PCB. Key Features Magnetic Activation – Non-contact switching via magnetic field 1 A Max...

SKU: SF-DEV-13343

The LilyPad Reed Switch is a simple breakout for a reed switch that will make it easy to use in e-textiles circuits in exactly the same manner that you can currently use the LilyPad Button and Switch. In order to make it more durable for wearable use, we’ve used a different style of reed switch, ...

SKU: LB-LR0018

A compact reed switch module that closes its circuit when a magnetic field is present. Inside the glass envelope, a pair of ferromagnetic metal contacts come together when a magnet is brought close, and spring apart when the magnet is removed — providing a simple, contactless switching mechanism....

SKU: LB-24-REED

A reed switch is an electrical switch which is operated when a magnetic field is brought near to it.  Check out our tutorial here Digital Output (DO)GND: In electronics, we define a point in a circuit to be a kind of zero volts or 0V reference point, on which to base all other voltage measu...

SKU: SF-COM-13247

This is the Magnetic Door Switch Set, a small reed switch assembly specifically designed to alert you when doors, drawers, or any other aperture opens. These types of switches are primarily used in home security systems. One half of the assembly set on a window or door frame and the other attache...

SKU: EF-EF04075

OCTOPUS Magnetic Switch is a kind of electric brick carrying magnetic switch and compatible with OCTOPUS series. It mainly consists of WBSF12 dry reed switch. WBSF12 is a dry reed tube with frequently open contact point. When magnet come close to a certain distance,switch within WBSF12 will cl...

SKU: DF-SEN0387

This magnetic switch consists of two parts: a reed switch sensor with cable and a magnet trigger in a plastic housing. When the magnet is brought within approximately 1 cm of the sensor, the reed switch closes, allowing you to detect position changes, door/window states, and proximity events. Th...

SKU: SF-SEN-28869 · MPN: SEN-28869

This anemometer measures wind speed using rotating cups that turn an enclosed magnet. On each rotation, the magnet closes a reed switch, producing a simple pulse output that can be counted by your electronics.The output is available on the two inner conductors of the RJ11 connector, pins 2 and 3....

SKU: AF-375

A magnetic reed switch encased in an ABS plastic shell, commonly used to detect when a door, window, or drawer is opened. The switch half contains a normally-open reed contact, and the other half is a magnet. When the magnet is within 13 mm (0.5"), the reed switch closes, completing the circuit. ...

SKU: DF-SEN0481

This magnetic switch (reed switch) consists of two magnetic reeds (usually composed of iron and nickel) sealed in a plastic case. The two magnetic reeds are overlapped but there is a small gap between them. When a suitable external magnetic field comes within 2cm, the two magnetic reeds will cont...

SKU: SF-SEN-27312 · MPN: SEN-27312

This 50mm MagnetoPot provides potentiometric position feedback without needing a traditional external wiper or actuator. An outside magnet guides the built-in magnetic element, allowing the sensor to report position through a linear potentiometer output.The sealed membrane-style construction make...

SKU: LB-LR07

A comprehensive collection of 37 different sensors and modules for Arduino, covering a wide range of inputs and outputs for electronics projects. Everything comes neatly organised in a clear plastic storage case. From environmental sensing (temperature, humidity, light) to user input (joystick, ...

SKU: SF-SEN-14709

The AH1815 is an integrated Hall-Effect non-latched sensor. That’s nice but what does it do? Holding a magnet near the sensor will cause the output pin to toggle. This makes for a robust presence sensor. A reed sensor also works nicely, but can be limited by the glass encapsulation and size. A...

SKU: SF-SEN-15901

This Weather Meter Kit provides the three core sensors for a DIY weather station: an anemometer (wind speed), a wind vane (wind direction), and a rain gauge. All three sensors use passive magnetic reed switches rather than active electronics, making them simple to interface with any microcontroll...
