What Is The Overview Of The Global Reed Switch Device Market?
A reed switch is an electromechanical device consisting of two ferromagnetic blades (reeds) sealed in a glass tube. These reeds are aligned with a small gap between them. When an external magnetic field is applied, the reeds either come into contact (close) or move apart (open), thereby completing or interrupting an electrical circuit. It is used to detect the presence or absence of a magnetic field, thus enabling or disabling electrical circuits without requiring direct mechanical contact.
