Coto Technology, of Providence, RI, a leading global supplier of high-quality reed switches and relays, has successfully developed and is now marketing the smallest reed switch available in the industry. Coto's RI-80, with the "ultra-small" size of 5mm, (max glass length) is ideal for size-restricted sensor applications in Medical Electronics such as pacemakers, endoscopes, and hearing aids as well as miniature industrial position sensors and consumer applications - including Laptops, PDA's, mobile phones and battery operated applications where no external power supply is available. And, because it is rated at 5 watts, the RI-80 is also well suited for high-reliability, small signal automatic test equipment.
Coto Technology's RI-80 is the only true 5.0mm reed switch available on the market - while competitive products are promoted as being as 5mm in length, in actuality, they measure 5.4-5.6mm.
Coto's RI-80, 5mm reed switch is priced according to configuration and quantity, with typical 4 to 8 week delivery. Samples are available at $1each. Literature and quotations are available upon request..
