Reed Sensors for
PCB Mounting
MK06 Series
MK06 sensors are magnetically operated Reed
proximity switches for direct PCB mounting. The
sensor should be mounted on a xed surface
with the actuating magnet on the moving surface.
Introduction or removal of the magnetic eld
determines the closing and opening of the Reed
Switch. (2.54 mm PCB pin spacing, available with
different distances)
APPLICATIONS
Telecommunications
Telephone hook switch, keyboard applications
Domestic appliances
Door switch for washing machines, dishwashers,
microwave ovens, baking ovens, refrigerators
Limit switch for low-power signals
Garage door controls, lever hoists, conveyors
Lifts / elevators
Position indicators
Part Number Example

DIMENSIONS
All dimensions in mm [inch]
* MK6-10-E is a magnetic latching sensor which is opened or closed by a passing magnet and remains in that
state until a magnet of opposite polarity or direction passes by again. The E refers to a latching sensor and does
not represent the magnetic sensitivity.
MK6-10-B is a normally closed sensor. The B refers to a latching sensor and does not represent the magnetic
sensitivity.
