Magnetic switch 7A.

Our magnetic switch utilises a Hall Effect Sensor (no mechanical switching parts). Careful firmware design ensures that stray magnetic fields cannot toggle the switch incorrectly.

Supplied as standard with Uni input/output and charge leads. 


Price Includes uk mainland postage.

Features: -

  • Oscillation free – (Turn your model on/off with ease.  You cannot accidentally turn the model off when you turn it on).
  • Positively switched – Ideal for electric models, esc safe, there’s no need for an opto isolator.
  • High current switch – The switch allows up to 20 A of constant output current depending on the wires csa and length.
  • Surface mounted components – vibration safe.
  • Customisable switch off time (On request).
  • Safe and reliable : -
1.       Default ON - if the battery is disconnected and then reconnected the output will turn on every time.  I.e.                     brownout due to bad battery connection.
2.       The magnetic switch is programmed to sample the magnet over the sensor for a set period of time without                 interruption and only then will it turn the output off.
3.       Extremely resilient to magnetic interference due to the switches microcontroller that is programmed with an               algorithm.

Now  2.5mm Smaller in length than V1 and the quiescent (standby current) has been reduced to only 5µA (Micro ampere’s).  A charged 2000mAh battery will last over 8 years.



Installation & Use: -

Place the switch as close to the fuselage or wing surface as possible and mark where the sensor is located on the outside (Sensor marked “S” on the PCB).  Use a piece of double sided tape and/or a piece of sponge to hold the switch in place.  When the switch is plugged into the power supply for the first time it will turn on.  To turn the switch off place the supplied magnet over the sensor for 3 seconds without interruption and the output will turn OFF. TIP: count 1, 1000, 2, 1000, 3, 1000. 

To turn the magnetic switch ON just swipe the magnet over the sensor.  Please ensure a full range check of the model is undertaken prior to use.
