Have you ever thought of controlling a circuit based on proximity? What if we bring a special module that will perform this task? So for you, we are presenting the Grove Magnetic Switch, a wonderful tool for designers to turn a circuit ON and OFF based on proximity. Its a Grove interface compatible switch module.

This switch is based on encapsulated dry reed switch CT10. CT10 is Single-Pole, Single-Throw (SPST) type switch which has normally open ruthenium contacts. moreover; the switch comes with a double-ended type sensor. The sensor may be actuated with an electromagnet, a permanent magnet or a combination of both. The Grove Magnetic Switch is a multi-purpose device. You can use it for various applications such as proximity sensor, security alarm sensor, level sensor, flow sensor, pulse counter, etc.

For all Grove users (especially beginners), Seeed Studio provides guidance PDF documents. Please download and read through Preface Getting Started and Introduction to Grove before using the product. This is a suitable product for not only Grove users but also all electronics enthusiasts. So, why wait? Buy now!
