Product Overview
The Littelfuse DRS-50 is a high-power, normally open reed switch designed for demanding applications. Featuring a robust hermetically sealed glass envelope, it offers reliable switching of high voltages and power up to 400Vdc at 2mA, with a carry current of 6A and a switching capacity of 100W/VA. Its high insulation resistance and low contact resistance ensure consistent performance. The DRS-50 is suitable for security systems, limit switching, industrial applications, and white goods, capable of switching European mains voltage with zero operating power required for contact closure.
