Reed Sensors **Datasheet** 

**59140 Series** Miniature Flange Mount Sensor 

## **Description** 

The 59140 is a miniature flange mounting reed sensor occupying only 3.22cm² (0.500”²) board space with a choice of normally open, normally open high voltage, normally closed or changeover contacts. The case design enables mounting with M3 screw with washer at 1 Nm torque maximum or adhesive mounting. The wires exit from the right-hand side, see Drawing 2. It is also available with left-hand exit, see 59141 series. The 59140 is capable of switching up to 265Vac/300Vdc at 10VA. 

It is well suited for use in a wide range of industrial, appliances, or IoT proximity sensing applications. 

The 59140 series functions best with the matching actuator 57140-000.

## **Notes:** 

1. Contact rating - Product of the switching voltage and current should never exceed the wattage rating. Contact Littelfuse for additional load/life information. 

2. When switching inductive and/or capacitive loads, the effects of transient voltages and/or currents should be considered. Refer to Application Notes AN108A and AN107 for details. 

3. Breakdown Voltage - per MIL-STD-202, Method 301. 

4. Electrical Load Life Expectancy - Contact Littelfuse with voltage, current values along with type of load. 

5. This resistance value is for 300 mm wire length. Resistance changes when wire lengthens. 

6. Operate (including bounce)/Release Time - per EIA/NARM RS-421-A, diode suppressed coil (Coil II). 

7. Shock and Vibration - per EIA/NARM RS-421-A and MIL-STD-202. 

8. For custom modifications to the wire length or size, or adding a special connector, please contact Littelfuse.
