Axial Lead Reed Switches High Power > MLRR-4 MLRR-4 15.2mm Sub-miniature Close Differential Reed Switch RoHS Description The MLRR-4 Reed Switch is a sub-miniature, normally open switch with a 15.24mm long x 2.54mm diameter (0.600" x 0.100") glass envelope, and capable of switching 200Vdc at 20W with close differential (CD) characteristics. It has high insulation resistance of 1010 ohms minimum and contact resistance less than 100 milli-ohms. It can handle lamp loads up to 2W @ 14V with no suppression circuitry. This reed switch is also available in a surface mount version, that is, MLSM-4.

Contact rating - Product of the switching voltage and current should never exceed the wattage rating. Contact Littelfuse for additional load/life information. 2. When switching inductive and/or capacitive loads, the effects of transient voltages and/or currents should be considered. Refer to Application Notes AN108A and AN107 for details. 3. Electrical Load Life Expectancy - Contact Littelfuse with voltage, current values along with type of load. 4. Breakdown Voltage - per MIL-STD-202, Method 301. 5. Storage Temperature - Long time exposure at elevated temperature may degrade solderability of the leads.
