MK11 Series
Reed Sensor with
Screw Thread Enclosure
MEDER electronic
DESCRIPTION
MK11 sensors are magnetically operated Reed
Sensors with screw thread enclosure supplied with
interconnect cable. The sensor should be mounted
on a fixed surface with the actuating magnet on
the moving surface. Introduction or removal of the
magnetic field determines the closing and opening
of the Reed Switch.
