More Product Information
ATEX and IECEx certified optocouplers are designed for use in intrinsically safe circuits within hazardous environments. These solid-state devices provide galvanic isolation and signal transmission without becoming ignition sources, even under fault conditions. Ideal for industries such as oil & gas, mining, and energy, they offer high isolation resistance, fast switching, and long operational life in compact, rugged packages.
Relays engineered to handle voltages above 600V, providing safe and efficient switching for power systems, energy storage, and high-voltage instrumentation.
Versatile Photo-MOSFET solid-state relays designed for a wide range of applications requiring low power switching, high isolation, and long operational life. Ideal for signal switching in industrial, medical, and telecom systems.
Reliable Switching in a Small Footprint
The miniature reed switch series features compact, power-efficient magnetic switches with glass body lengths ranging from 9 to 14 mm. Designed for precision and versatility, these switches operate with no power consumption in their normally open state, making them ideal for energy-sensitive applications.
Available in a wide range of switching characteristics, including close differential, high current, mercury wetted, high-performance, and SPDT (changeover) configurations, this series supports diverse design requirements across industries. Their small footprint makes them especially valuable in miniaturized systems such as semiconductor testing equipment and medical devices, while also serving critical roles in telecommunications, security, automotive, appliances, and industrial automation.
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.
Discover reed relays engineered with specialized features to meet demanding application needs. These relays offer benefits such as ultra-low power consumption, latching functionality, high insulation resistance, and other advanced capabilities tailored for precision, reliability, and space-saving designs.
Threaded housing sensors allow precise positioning and easy installation using lock nuts. Suitable for both Reed and Hall effect technologies, they are ideal for applications requiring adjustable sensing gaps.
Non-ATEX certified optocouplers provide effective electrical isolation between input and output circuits using light-based signal transmission.
