Special Reed Switches
By Special Reed Switches we mean unusual Reed Switches, for example, ones with a very high breakdown voltage or bistable (also called "Latching" or "Form E") Reed Switches. These are pre-adjusted or pre-tensioned using an attached magnet. They keep their switching status even after the corresponding magnet or magnetic field is removed.
