59090 Heavy Duty Vane Sensor
Description
The 59090 is a robust reed vane sensor with integral actuator magnet. It’s
actuation occurs when a suitable low carbon steel vane passes through the slot
between the magnet and switch. It has different contact types such as normally
closed, high voltage normally closed and changeover. It is capable of switching
up to 265Vac/300Vdc at 10VA. It is ideally suited to position and limit sensing,
security, linear actuator, industrial process control and shaft rotation. It is also
suited for heavy duty applications such as off-road and heavy vehicles and
farm machinery.

Notes:
1. Contact rating - Product of the switching voltage and current should never exceed the wattage rating. Contact Littelfuse for additional load/life information.
2. When switching inductive and/or capacitive loads, the effects of transient voltages and/or currents should be considered. Refer to Application Notes AN108A and AN107 for details.
3. Breakdown Voltage - per MIL-STD-202, Method 301.
4. Electrical Load Life Expectancy - Contact Littelfuse with voltage, current values along with type of load.
5. This resistance value is for 11.81mm wire length. Resistance changes when wire lengthens.
6. Operate (including bounce)/Release Time - per EIA/NARM RS-421-A, diode suppressed coil (Coil II).
7. Shock and Vibration - per EIA/NARM RS-421-A and MIL-STD-202.
8. For custom modifications to the wire length or size, or adding a special connector, please contact Littelfuse.
