RUKO KES-FormC-90°-26.0mm Reed Switch, SPDT, 175 VDC, 0.5 A

This SPDT (Form C) reed switch features a 26.0 mm glass envelope and 90° bent leads for through-hole mounting. It handles up to 175 VDC switching voltage and 0.5 A switching current, with a maximum switching power of 10 W. The switch offers a high insulation resistance of 10^9 Ω and low contact resistance of 150 mΩ, ensuring reliable performance in demanding applications. With an operating temperature range of -40°C to +125°C and a life expectancy of 10^8 operations under resistive load, it is built for longevity. The fast operate and release times of 0.1 ms make it suitable for high-speed switching.
