DRS-DTH 39.7mm Standard Changeover Reed Switch
Description
The DRS-DTH Reed Switch is a large changeover switch with a 39.67mm long x
5.33mm diameter (1.562” x 0.210”) glass envelope, capable high voltage and
power switching up to 500Vdc at 2mA, or 0.5A up to 30W/VA. The DRS-DTH has
an insulation resistance of 10
9
ohms minimum and contact resistance of less than
125 milli-ohms.
Switch Type
Contact Form C (SPDT-CO)

Notes:
1. Contact rating - Product of the switching voltage and current should never exceed the wattage rating. Contact Littelfuse for additional load/life information.
2. When switching inductive and/or capacitive loads, the effects of transient voltages and/or currents should be considered. Refer to Application Notes AN108A and AN107 for details.
3. Electrical Load Life Expectancy - Contact Littelfuse with voltage, current values along with type of load.
4. Breakdown Voltage - per MIL-STD-202, Method 301.
5. Storage Temperature - Long time exposure at elevated temperature may degrade solderability of the leads.
