Welcome to PIC
Our work is never done.
Passion, respect, integrity and
discipline are the four core values
which drive us to sophisticated
products and continuous growth
in a globalized world.
Product Innovation

Intelligent Design
Creative Manufacturing
Innovation
Modern machinery, perfected production
concepts, clear information policy and our
comprehensive sensor know-how secure
our premier position in the branch.
Quality
Continuous optimization in the areas
of research, development, production,
service and marketing assure high
standards in product quality.
Sustainability
Sustainability is an essential part of our
philosophy. Careful use of resources and
environmental compatibility starts long
before production and does not finish at
sale. We remain true to this principle with
regard to social and economic aspects.

Reed Switch Basics
How does a Reed Switch work?
Benefits
› No power supply required
› Contacts hermetically sealed
› Most economic non-touch switching solution
› Not ESD sensitive
› Various methods of actuation possible
› Magnetic and electrical pole independent
›
Non-touch actuation permits smooth
A Reed Switch consists of a pair of ferromagnetic
reeds, hermetically sealed in a glass tube. Their
free ends overlap at a very small distance.

Reed Sensors
Reed Sensor Basics
How does a Reed Sensor work?
A Reed Sensor incorporates a Reed Switch inside
a metal or plastic housing for better mechanical
protection and easier mounting.
Actuation principles for Reed Switches also
apply to Reed Sensors.

Level Sensors
Level Sensor Basics
How does a Level Sensor work?
A Level Sensor incorporates a Reed Switch in
a stem. An external float, with a magnet inside,
passes and actuates the Reed Switch, depending
on liquid level.
Actuation principles for Reed Switches also apply
to Level Sensors.

Hall Sensors
Hall Sensors Basics
How does a Hall Sensor work?
Benefits
› No mechanical movement, basically no wear
›
Higher “switching frequency” compared
A Hall Sensors contains an IC which reacts to
a magnetic field by changing its output status.
This change can be interpreted as ON / OFF signal
by a logic.

Maximum power, minimum space
In recent years, Neodymium-Iron-Boron
magnets (NdFeB) have advanced from being
exotic luxury items to affordable power
magnets.
The benefits in sensor applications
›Increased switching distance
›Miniature design possible
› Resistance to demagnetization
›Greater product design flexibility

Tech Center: Reed Switches
How to operate
In general four different magnet approaches
are known when using permanent magnets
1
One magnet pole faces Reed Switch providing
two operations max. when moving on X-axis.
Minimum movement of magnet over switch
center provides smallest possible switching
differential.
2
OFF
Magnet parallel to longitudinal axis of switch:
Approaching magnet vertically to switch on
Y-axis provides one operation only.
Driving magnet over full length of switch (X-axis)
may result in up to three operations.
Minimum movement of magnet over switch
center provides smallest possible switching
differential.

3
Switch operation by rotation of magnet.
This gives two operations per complete
rotation.
4
Operation of switch by shielding. This method
requires a permanently opposite location of
magnet and switch. The switch is held closed
continuously and will release only if magnet flux
is removed by means of ferro-magnetic shield.

Precautions
Shock Resistance
Generally Reed Switches provide high shock resistance up to 100 g. Still a
drop on a hard surface can generate a shock of several 100 g, which can lead
to de-adjustment of contacts. Switches having been dropped should be
re-tested for sensitivity before usage!
Do’s and Don’ts when cutting and bending Reed Switches
Incorrect bending or cutting of
terminals may lead to cracks in
the sealing area due to heavy
mechanical stress. To avoid this
problem the remaining part of
terminal between glass body and
point of bending resp. cutting,
should be gripped tightly.
