Products
Non-ATEX certified optocouplers provide effective electrical isolation between input and output circuits using light-based signal transmission. Ideal for environments where explosive atmosphere certification is not required, these components offer dependable performance in signal switching, noise reduction, and circuit protection across a wide range of standard applications.
Our Packaged Magnet portfolio features precision-engineered magnets housed in durable enclosures for seamless integration with reed and Hall effect sensors. Designed to simplify installation and enhance magnetic performance, these assemblies offer consistent field strength, mechanical protection, and optimized alignment for sensing applications. Ideal for automotive, industrial, and medical environments, our packaged magnets ensure reliable actuation and long-term durability in demanding conditions.
Reed liquid level sensors use magnetic floats and reed switch technology to detect fluid levels. As the float moves with the liquid, it activates reed switches housed within a stem, providing a reliable on/off signal or triggering multiple level points. These sensors are highly energy-efficient, drawing no power until activated, making them ideal for battery-powered or low-energy applications.
They are available in vertical or horizontal mount configurations and can be customized for various fluid types, temperatures, and pressures. With options for stainless steel or plastic housings, reed sensors offer a simple, cost-effective solution for fluid level monitoring in automotive, industrial, HVAC, and appliance systems.
Reed position sensors offer a versatile and contactless solution for detecting movement and position using magnetic fields. Built around a reed switch mechanism, these sensors operate by opening or closing in response to a nearby magnet, enabling precise and repeatable switching. Available in a wide range of sizes, mounting styles, and electrical configurations, they are ideal for applications in industrial automation, medical devices, fluid level monitoring, and consumer electronics. Their solid-state design ensures long operational life, resistance to shock and vibration, and compatibility with low-voltage systems.
Reed proximity sensors use a magnetically activated Reed switch to detect nearby objects. They offer low power consumption, long life, and are ideal for applications requiring precise, contactless switching in compact spaces.
Reed Relay Modules integrate multiple high-performance reed relays into compact, ready-to-use packages for efficient signal switching in space-constrained designs. Available in 8-channel configurations, these modules simplify circuit design by combining switching functionality with integrated driver electronics and advanced packaging.
The RM05-8A-SP Series features an 8-pole relay configuration housed in a dual-in-line through-hole package, equipped with MAX4823 integrated drivers and kickback protection—eliminating the need for external activation circuitry and reducing PCB footprint.
Sanyu reed relays deliver high-performance switching solutions ideal for Automated Test Equipment (ATE) and high-frequency applications. Engineered with compact, low-power reed technology, they offer fast switching speeds, low insertion loss, high isolation, and exceptional reliability. Backed by the Japanese precision, each relay undergoes advanced environmental testing and 100% ATE verification. With low contact resistance, wide bandwidth, and minimal capacitance, Sanyu Reed relays are trusted by design engineering and manufacturing experts worldwide.
Engineered to complement our sensor series, these magnets ensure optimal alignment, activation, and performance. Available in various shapes and magnetic strengths, they simplify integration and enhance reliability across sensing applications in automotive, industrial, and medical environments.
Side Mount Liquid Level Sensors offer robust and versatile solutions for accurate fluid level monitoring. Designed with flexible mounting options, including external/internal threads and grommet inserts, these sensors feature separate float/sensor designs to minimize leak paths. Ideal for automotive, industrial, and medical applications, they support both Normally Open (NO) and Normally Closed (NC) configurations, with power options up to 100W. Integration is simplified with cable harnesses and connector options, making them a trusted choice for OEMs and Tier 1 platforms.
Single point liquid level sensors are designed to detect fluid at a specific level, typically a critical high or low point. These sensors use a single magnetic float and reed switch to provide a simple, reliable signal when the fluid reaches the designated level.
Available in vertical or horizontal mounting styles, these sensors are ideal for compact installations and are commonly used in tanks, reservoirs, and molded containers. They operate with minimal power consumption and offer high durability, with options for high-temperature resistance, IP-rated sealing, and high-power switching.
Their customizable design, cost-effectiveness, and ease of integration make them a dependable solution for fluid level monitoring across a wide range of industries.
