Standex Detect - Threaded Housing Position Sensors
Threaded Housing Position Sensors offer a rugged and easily adjustable solution for detecting position, proximity, or motion in a wide range of applications. Available with reed switch or Hall effect technology, these sensors are housed in cylindrical threaded enclosures, typically plastic, stainless steel, or brass, for secure mounting and customizable sensing gaps. Their non-contact operation ensures long-term reliability and resistance to shock, vibration, and harsh environments. Ideal for use in automation, transportation, medical devices, and industrial machinery, these sensors support various output types and connection styles for seamless integration.

Designed for applications requiring current handling above 1 amp, these relays offer low on-resistance and high thermal stability for power control and motor drive systems.
Intrinsically safe reed relays and optocouplers are engineered for use in hazardous environments where ignition prevention is critical. Certified to ATEX standards and tested to ensure they do not become ignition sources, even in the presence of short circuits or adjacent component failures—these components are ideal for applications in explosive atmospheres such as mining, chemical processing, refineries, and power stations.
Designed to meet EN50020 safety standards, these relays and optocouplers feature tightly controlled air and creepage paths, high dielectric strength, and low-voltage coil inputs. With a maximum peak voltage of 375 V across input and output, and isolation distances up to 10 mm, they ensure safe operation under overload conditions. The Comparative Tracking Index (CTI) of the plastics used exceeds 175, and internal potting compounds provide additional insulation for long-term reliability.
Metal detection sensors identify the presence of steel or other ferrous materials. They are used in automation, safety, and machinery applications where reliable detection of metal components is essential.
