Standex Electronics at electronica 2024 in Munich

Standex Electronics, a global electronics component manufacturer, is pleased to announce that it has acquired American Relays, Inc., a US-based company that makes reed switch-based relays. “Standex Electronics is proud to add the American Relays brand to its portfolio of reed relays as it further strengthens its position in the Test and Measurement market. This acquisit...

Despite its small size, the Relay has an isolation resistance of up to >10^13 Ohm. Another advantage is the low power consumption. Reed Relays only need energy during the switching process, which has a positive influence on the overall efficiency of the inverter. Because of the high number of switching cycles (>10^9), the Reed Relay is suitable for long life applications.

While measuring only a size of L 6.4mm x H 1.95mm x W 2.2mm the MK31 series achieve a minimum life expectancy of 50 million operations.Furthermore he uses no external power in its normal state and it is ideal for countless low power applications, including portable devices, contact sensors, position sensors and limit switches in various applications. With a unique herme...
