The above sensor information represents about 20% of the standard sensors available from EAC. In addition, over 100 variations of each of the above are available. Contact EAC with your requirements.

Sensors are available with long lead wires, multiple poles, SPST, SPDT, or DPDT configurations. A variety of other components from LED's to Pushbuttons can be built into the sensor as required. One can select multiple switch assemblies, specialized encapsulation to include conformal coating or circuit board installation and assembly.

Send EAC your specifications be it for flow or level control or even for use in explosive environments or for underwater applications in addition to routine burglar alarm usage. We do it all. Contact us with your requirements and we will send you a free sample for you to evaluate in your application.

Applications are boundless. The Actuator is usually mounted in the moving article, something that goes round and round or has movement back and forth or up and down. When the Actuator arrives in the vicinity of the Sensor, the reed switch either closes or opens depending upon the Sensor design and causes a change in the voltage applied through the Sensor. As the Actuator leaves the vicinity of the Sensor, the contacts of the reed switch revert to the original condition and cause a change of the voltage applied through the contact back to the original condition.

An elevator shaft can have a Sensor at each floor and an Actuator on the elevator. When the elevator moves up or down it announces it's arrival by the Actuator closing the Sensor contacts and lighting a lighted pushbutton. A Sensor mounted next to a car's driveshaft can be actuated by an Actuator on the Drive Shaft, the signal fed to some electronics and a car speed control results. A Sensor is mounted into a door frame and the Actuator is mounted into the door. When the door opens, an alarm rings. And there's more.... One's imagination is the limit when it comes to Sensor Useage. Call EAC for help in imagination stretching.

Together we will design a free sample for you to make imagination become reality.

EAC's Position Sensors utilize switches that are Underwriters Laboratories listed. This means that in effect, these switches have been type tested for adherence to specifications. In addition, many of EAC's Position Sensors bear the mark of Underwriters Laboratories signifying that the entire Sensor has been listed.

Position Sensors are devices constructed utilizing just a reed switch by itself or are of several items to include epoxy, wire, a plastic case, a reed switch, and some solder. It may sound simple to construct, but each sensor must perform exactly like others in a particular catalog series. This means that wires must be exactly the same length, switch sensitivity from one sensor to the other must be identical, epoxy must be uniform and consistent from batch to batch and so on.

EAC's over 35 years in business is a result of only one thing and that is quality. EAC has a reputation of being able to supply to our customers consistent quality of product from year to year. This means that when you select a Position Sensor from EAC, what you buy today will be the same thing when you buy it tomorrow or some other time. We do not make changes to the product that you buy from us.
