Handling & Assembly Instructions
Use proper lead clamping or heat sinking
techniques to prevent mechanical and/or heat
stress during, soldering, and welding
Mechanical shock as the result of dropping the reed
sensor typically from a distance of greater than 12”
may change it’s magnetic sensitivity and/or destroy
the sensor
Series resistor recommended for >5m cable length
