RI-23 Series Dry Reed Switch
RI-23 Series
Micro dry-reed switch hermetically sealed in a gas-filled envelope.
Single-pole, single-throw (SPST) type, having normally open contacts,
and containing two magnetically actuated reeds.
The switch is of the double-ended type and may be actuated by an
electromagnet, a permanent magnet or a combination of both.
The device is intended for use in sensors, relays, pulse counters or
similar devices.

Coils
All characteristics are measured using the Philips
Standard Coil. For definitions of the Philips Stan-
dard Coil, refer to “Application
Notes”

this catalog.
Life expectancy and reliability
The life expectancy data given below are valid for a
coil energized at 1.25 times the published maximum
operate value for each type in the RI-23 series.
No load conditions (operating frequency:
100Hz)
Life expectancy : min. 10
8
operations with a failure
rate of less than 10
-9
with a confidence level of 90%.
End of life criteria:
Contact resistance > 1Ω after 2 ms
108
End of life criteria:
Contact resistance > 2Ω after 4 ms
Release time > 0.7 ms (latching or contact sticking).
Switching different loads involves different life expect-
ancy and reliability data. Further information is avail-
able on request.
Mechanical Data
Contact arrangement is normally open; lead finish is
tinned; net mass is approximately 190 mg; and can be
mounted in any position.
Shock
The switches are tested in accordance with
“IEC 68-2-27”, test Ea (peak acceleration 150 G, half
sinewave; duration 11 ms). Such a shock will not cause
an open switch (no magnetic field present) to close,
nor a switch kept closed by an 80 AT coil to open.

RI-23 Series Dry Reed Switch
Vibration
The switches are tested in accordance with “IEC 68-2-
6”, test Fc (acceleration 10G; below cross-over fre-
quency 57 to 62 Hz; amplitude 0.75 mm;
frequency range 10 to 2000 Hz, duration 90 minutes).
Such a vibration will not cause an open switch (no
magnetic field present) to close, nor a switch kept
closed by an 80 AT coil to open.
Mechanical Strength
The robustness of the terminations is tested in accor-
dance with “IEC 68-2-21”, test Ua
1
(load 40 N).
Operating and Storage Temperature
Operating ambient temperature; min: -55°C;
max: +125°C. Storage temperature; min: -55°C; max:
+125°C.
Note:
Temperature excursions up to 150°C
may be permissible. For more information contact your
nearest Coto Technology sales office.
Soldering
The switch can withstand soldering heat in accordance
with “IEC 68-2-20”, test Tb, method 1B:solder bath at
350 ±10 °C for 3.5 ±0.5 s. Solderability is tested in
accordance with “IEC 68-2-20”, test Ta, method 3:
solder globule temperature 235°C; ageing 1b: 4 hours
steam.
Welding
The leads can be welded.
Mounting
The leads should not be bent closer than 1 mm to the
glass-to-metal seals. Stress on the seals should be
avoided. Care must be taken to prevent stray magnetic
fields from influencing the operating and measuring
conditions.
