Magnetic Proximity Sensors (Reed)

MP2019 Sensors

Reed based magnetic proximity sensor

in plastic flange-mount package

Description

The MP2 Series sensors are reed position sensors. Normally open or closed contacts change states when a magnetic field is

applied. The sensors act as non-latching electrical switches.
