RI-27 Series Dry Reed Switch RI-27 Series Pico dry-reed switch hermetically sealed in a gas-filled glass 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 relays, sensors, pulse counters or similar devices. RI-27 Series Features Ideal for ATE switching Contact layers: gold, sputtered ruthenium Superior glass-to-metal seal and blade alignment Excellent life expectancy and reliability Dimensions in inches (mm) General data for all models RI-27 AT-Customization / Preformed Leads RI-27AAA Besides the standard models, customized products can also be supplied offering the following options: !

Switching different loads involves different life expectancy and reliability data. Further information is available on request. Mechanical Data Contact arrangement is normally open; lead finish is tinned; net mass is approximately 100 mg; and can be mounted in any position. Shock RI-27AA; RI-27A Mechanical Strength The robustness of the terminations is tested in accordance with "IEC 68-2-21", test Ua1 (load 10 N). Operating and Storage Temperature Operating ambient temperature; min: -55C; max: +125C. Storage temperature; min: -55C; max: +125C. Note: Temperature excursions up to 150C may be permissible. For more information contact your nearest Coto Technology sales office. Soldering The switches are tested in accordance with "IEC 68-227", 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. 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 235C; ageing 1b: 4 hours steam. Vibration Welding The switches are tested in accordance with "IEC 68-26", test Fc (acceleration 10 G; below cross-over frequency 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. 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.
