Reed Sensor with
Screw Thread Enclosure
MK11 Series
DESCRIPTION
MK11 sensors are magnetically operated Reed
Sensors with screw thread enclosure supplied with
interconnect cable. The sensor should be mounted
on a xed surface with the actuating magnet on
the moving surface. Introduction or removal of the
magnetic eld determines the closing and opening
of the Reed Switch.
APPLICATIONS
Piston end travel and position detection
End motion detection for linear drives
Machine industry
