Installation & Mounting Guide:
- Prepare the Surface: Thoroughly clean the installation area—remove dust, grease, and any residues. A pristine surface ensures a strong bond and optimal sensor performance.
- Secure the Reed Switch: Mount the miniature flange switch firmly to a fixed surface using precision screws or a high-grade adhesive. Due to its compact size, ensuring stability is crucial.
- Position the Magnet: Attach the magnet to the moving component (like a door or panel) so it lines up perfectly with the reed switch. With miniature components, even slight misalignments can affect functionality.
- Align Properly: Adjust the position until the magnet and reed switch align perfectly. The circuit should open or close as the magnet moves into and out of range according to your desired configuration.
- Test the System: Before finalizing the installation, simulate the operational conditions by moving the magnet. Ensure the circuit responds correctly—this is your final check for reliable performance.
