Standex Detect - Reed Position Sensors
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.

High Power Magnetic Switching for Demanding Applications
The high-power reed switch series offers robust magnetic switching solutions capable of handling up to 120 W and voltages as high as 1,000 VDC. Designed for demanding applications, these reed switches are available in various sizes starting from 14 mm, including surface mount and through-hole options for flexible integration.
These switches are ideal for proximity, position, motion, and end-limit sensing, and can also be packaged into high power reed relays for enhanced durability and simplified PCB mounting. Relay packaging supports both pick-and-place automation and high insulation resistance, with some models exceeding 10¹³ Ohms.
Popular series such as KT, SHV, LI, and BE offer a range of contact configurations, including SPST, SPDT, and multi-switch designs. Whether used in automotive systems or test and measurement equipment, these high-power reed switches deliver reliable performance where high voltage and current demands are critical.
Custom solutions are also available to meet specific design requirements.
Surface-Mount Device (SMD) Photo-MOSFET relays optimized for automated assembly and compact designs. These relays provide high performance in signal integrity and are ideal for consumer electronics and instrumentation.
High insulation resistance reed relays are designed for ultra-low leakage current performance, making them ideal for precision applications where signal integrity and isolation are critical. Engineered with specialized materials, extended creepage distances, and optimized internal geometry, these relays achieve insulation resistance levels up to 100 tera-ohms (TΩ) and in some cases, even 1,000 TΩ resulting in leakage currents in the picoampere range or lower.
These relays are available in configurations that support switching voltages up to 1,000 VDC and breakdown voltages up to 4,500 VDC, with custom options reaching 10,000 VDC switching and 15,000 VDC breakdown. Their high isolation and dielectric strength make them ideal for automated test equipment (ATE), semiconductor testing, and precision measurement systems where even the smallest leakage can impact results.
Compact, reliable, and built for demanding environments, High Insulation Resistance reed relays offer unmatched performance in high-voltage, low-leakage applications.
Optimized for high-speed signal transmission and minimal signal distortion, these relays feature low off-state capacitance, making them ideal for RF, telecom, and precision measurement applications.
These sensors detect the presence or movement of a magnet, enabling precise position or proximity monitoring. Available in Reed or Hall effect versions, they are used in medical, industrial, and consumer devices.
