GENERAL INFORMATION
SOLDERING INSTRUCTIONS
SS100 Series Hall effect sensors have an NPN
(current sinking) output. The small SOT89 style
package surface mounts on PC boards and flexible
circuits.
Exposure to high temperatures should be kept at
a minimum.
MICRO SWITCH recommends a convection
infrared reflow process with peak temperatures not
to exceed 220°C (428°F) for 20 seconds maximum.
DO NOT wave solder this product. Performance
and reliability may be negatively affected. Sub-
jecting these products to wave soldering will void
MICRO SWITCH’s warranty.
These products are NOT suitable for protection
against personal injury.
To AVOID personal injury or death, DO NOT
USE these products as emergency stop or safety
devices, or in any other application where human
safety is at risk.
CLEANING
Use agitated rinse. Do not use pressure wash.
High pressure stream could force contaminants into
sensor package.
SS100 Series sensors are Category 2 ESD
sensitive per DOD-STD-1686A. Perform
assembly operations on tables with conductive
tops, with operators grounded.
ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS
