MK13

Meder Electronic
MK13 Series
Reed Sensors with Screw
Fastening Mounting Holes
DESCRIPTION
MK13 sensors are magnetically operated Reed
proximity switches in a case with an 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.
APPLICATIONS
• Position and limit switch
Pneumatic or hydraulic actuator position
• End motion detection for linear drive
Indication and end travel limit switch
• Machine industry
End motion detection and door/flap control
FEATURES
• Form A, B, and C available
• High power switches available
• Other cables, connectors and colors available
• Various case sizes available
• Five operate sensitivities available
• A choice of cable terminations and lengths are
available
DIMENSIONS
All dimensions in mm [inches]
