Magnetic Proximity Sensors (Reed)
MP2017 Sensor
s
Reed based magnetic proximity sensor
encapsulated in smooth plastic barrel
Description
The MP2 Series sensors are reed proximity sensors. Normally open or closed contacts change states when a magnetic field is
applied. The sensors act as non-latching electrical switches.
Contacts hermetically sealed for long life
Zero power consumption
Suitable for DC and AC circuits
RoHS compliant
IP65
Operate/Release Distances*: 3.81 mm – 12.7 mm (0.15” – 0.5”)
