RI-80SMDM Series of Reed Switches

2021-12-10T18:43:12-05:00March 23rd, 2021|Applications|

Application: Multifunctional Industrial Joysticks The RI-80 SMDM series of reed switches are perfect for applications such as multifunctional industrial joysticks. The joystick control evolved over time, and what started as a computer accessory is used today to control everything from gaming computers to heavy industrial machinery. Industrial joysticks allow precise control of the machinery and increase the operator’s safety. The RI-80 SMDM series of reed switches are designed for these rugged industrial conditions in mind. They offer stable contact resistance, long life, and high reliability by using sputtered ruthenium contacts.

We at the Comus Group of Companies are excited to offer the RI-80 SMDM series of surface-mount reed switches. These high-quality reed switches are ideal for proximity sensors and medical applications. The RI-80 SMDM series uses the Comus Technology B.V. (Coto Technology®) reed switches with sputtered ruthenium contacts for high reliability and long life. The RI-80 SMDM switches are Single Pole Single Throw (SPST) dry reed switches, with normally open contacts, and two magnetically actuated reeds. The switches could be actuated by an electromagnet, a permanent magnet, or a combination of both. They are available in industry-standard Gull Wing and [...]

1517 & 1512 Mini SIP Reed Relays

2021-12-10T18:41:20-05:00February 17th, 2021|Applications|

APPLICATION: High-Density Test Matrix Modules The small footprint of reed relays with a stable contact resistance is essential for test matrix modules that need to pack as many relays as possible onto a PCB. When it comes to providing stable contact resistance, experience in manufacturing reed switches with sputtered ruthenium contacts gives Comus an advantage over the competition. The 1517 series also features a 75% smaller PCB footprint than the industry-standard SIP relays, while the 1512 series has a 60% smaller PCB footprint.

They feature a magnetic shield to limit magnetic interaction, making them ideal for high-density relay matrices. Also, the 1517 and 1512 series have [...]

38-Q Series PhotoDMOS Relays

2021-12-10T18:39:09-05:00October 13th, 2020|Applications|

Application: Battery Management Systems The monitoring of rechargeable batteries is critical because of the high consumer demand for electric vehicles. BMS ensures a safe battery operation while optimizing the battery pack’s life. In addition, BMS monitors battery charging and prevents it from overheating. The high breakdown voltage of 38-Q PhotoDMOS relays makes them ideal for BMS applications that have high-voltage requirements. PhotoDMOS relays contribute to the safer operation of BMS because there are no sticking and welding failures typical for mechanical relays. Furthermore, 38-Q series relays are smaller than comparable mechanical relays, which reduces the BMS board area’s size.

Steel Sensing Proximity Sensors

2021-12-10T18:39:16-05:00August 11th, 2020|Applications|

Application: McHale Agricultural Machinery Operation Monitoring Increases Safety McHale is a leading international manufacturer of specialist agricultural machinery. Always looking to improve and innovate, McHale partnered with Comus on enhancements for their baler equipment to make it safer. The Comus Steel Proximity Sensors are now used in McHale’s agricultural baler-wrapper machines to monitor the baler’s pin position. The pin has two positions: storage/transportation and usage. The Comus Steel Proximity Sensor prevents accidental baler operation by interrupting the operation enablement circuit when the pin is in the storage/transportation position. When the pin is in the usage position, the sensor allows the [...]
