RI-23 Series

Micro dry-reed switch hermetically sealed in a gas-filled envelope.

Single-pole, single-throw (SPST) type, having normally open contacts,

and containing two magnetically actuated reeds.

The switch is of the double-ended type and may be actuated by an

electromagnet, a permanent magnet or a combination of both.

The device is intended for use in sensors, relays, pulse counters or

similar devices.

General data for all models RI-23

AT-Customization / Preformed Leads

Besides the standard models, customized products

can also be supplied offering the following options:

! Operate and release ranges to customer

specification

! Cropped and/or preformed leads

Coils

All characteristics are measured using the Philips

Standard Coil. For definitions of the Philips Stan-

dard Coil, refer to “Application Notes” in the Reed

Switch Technical & Application Information Section of

this catalog.

Life expectancy and reliability

The life expectancy data given below are valid for a

coil energized at 1.25 times the published maximum

operate value for each type in the RI-23 series.

No load conditions (operating frequency:

100Hz)

Life expectancy : min. 108 operations with a failure

rate of less than 10-9 with a confidence level of 90%.

End of life criteria:

Contact resistance > 1Ω after 2 ms

Release time > 2 ms (latching or contact sticking).

Loaded conditions (resistive load: 12 V; 4 mA;

(15 mA peak); operating frequency: 170 Hz)

Life expectancy: min. 107 operations with a failure rate

of less than 10-8 with a confidence level of 90%.

End of life criteria:

Contact resistance > 2Ω after 4 ms

Release time > 0.7 ms (latching or contact sticking).

Switching different loads involves different life expect-

ancy and reliability data. Further information is avail-

able on request.

Mechanical Data

Contact arrangement is normally open; lead finish is

tinned; net mass is approximately 190 mg; and can be

mounted in any position.

Shock

The switches are tested in accordance with

“IEC 68-2-27”, test Ea (peak acceleration 150 G, half

sinewave; duration 11 ms). Such a shock will not cause

an open switch (no magnetic field present) to close,

nor a switch kept closed by an 80 AT coil to open.

RI-23 Series Dry Reed Switch

Vibration

The switches are tested in accordance with “IEC 68-2-

6”, test Fc (acceleration 10G; below cross-over fre-

quency 57 to 62 Hz; amplitude 0.75 mm;

frequency range 10 to 2000 Hz, duration 90 minutes).

Such a vibration will not cause an open switch (no

magnetic field present) to close, nor a switch kept

closed by an 80 AT coil to open.

Mechanical Strength

The robustness of the terminations is tested in accor-

dance with “IEC 68-2-21”, test Ua1 (load 40 N).

Operating and Storage Temperature

Operating ambient temperature; min: -55°C;

max: +125°C. Storage temperature; min: -55°C; max:

+125°C. Note: Temperature excursions up to 150°C

may be permissible. For more information contact your

nearest Coto Technology sales office.

Soldering

The switch can withstand soldering heat in accordance

with “IEC 68-2-20”, test Tb, method 1B:solder bath at

350 ±10 °C for 3.5 ±0.5 s. Solderability is tested in

accordance with “IEC 68-2-20”, test Ta, method 3:

solder globule temperature 235°C; ageing 1b: 4 hours

steam.

Welding

The leads can be welded.

Mounting

The leads should not be bent closer than 1 mm to the

glass-to-metal seals. Stress on the seals should be

avoided. Care must be taken to prevent stray magnetic

fields from influencing the operating and measuring

conditions.
