REED SWITCH
ORD2210V REED SWITCH

ORD2210V
Vacuum Ultra High Breakdown Voltage High Power Reed Switch

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The ORD2210V is a small single-contact reed swtich of a vacuum type designed for ultra high
breakdown voltages 1000 V DC between the reed contacts.

Features

(1) The reed contacts are hermetically sealed within a galss tube and do not receive any influence
from the external atomospheric environment.

(2) Quick response

(3) The operating system and electrical circuits are coaxially composed and the ORD2210V is
suited to the applications for high frequency transmission.

(4) Reed switches are compact and light weight.

(5) Superior corrosion resistance and wear resistance of the contacts assures stable switching
operation and long life.

(6) With a permanent magnet installed, reed switches economically and easily become proximity
switches.
