Pickering Electronics, a leading manufacturer of high-performance reed relays, has released a new application guide for engineers designing power and sensing systems for harsh mining environments. The guide, titled: ‘Reed Relays: The Logical Choice for Power & Signal Switching in Mining Applications’, explains why reed relays are well suited to high- and low-voltage switching and sensing applications where reliability, accuracy and low power consumption are critical.

Pickering Electronics was delighted for its ultra-high-density Series 125 reed relays to be named Passive/Electromechanical Product of the Year at this year’s prestigious electronics industry Elektra Awards.

Pickering Electronics has expanded its ultra-high-density Series 125 reed relay lineup, introducing new Form A, Form B, Form C, and Form A coaxial variants to maximize channel density while reducing board space.

Pickering Electronics has upgraded its Series 144 high-power reed relays with a new electrostatic shield to minimize noise between the coil drive and high voltage circuits. This innovation complements Pickering’s internal mu-metal screening, enhancing relay performance and reliability, especially in compact, densely stacked designs switching up to 80 Watts.

Pickering Electronics has introduced a new electrostatic-shield option for its high-voltage Series 104 reed relay family — designed to minimise noise between the coil-drive circuit and high-voltage switch path, a key benefit for dense power-designs and mixed-signal test environments.

Pickering Electronics has announced availability of another in its series of educational application guides – this one for engineers building test systems to perform hipot electrical safety testing to verify the effectiveness of insulation in electrical products and systems, titled ‘High Potential Testing.
