MK11

Meder Electronic
MK11 Series
Reed Sensor with
Screw Thread Enclosure
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.
APPLICATIONS
• Piston end travel and position detection
• End motion detection for linear drives
• Machine industry
FEATURES
• High power switches available
• Other cables, connectors and colors available
• Various case sizes available
• Five operate sensitivities available
• A choice of switch terminations and cable
lengths (mm) are available
DIMENSIONS
All dimensions in mm [inches]
