Honeywell 944TRE-WH 3/8″ Magnetic Contact with Rare Earth Magnet White

Description

Product Overview

The Honeywell 944TRE-WH magnetic contact is engineered for precision and durability in demanding industrial environments. Featuring a robust copper housing, this round‑shaped switch incorporates a rare earth button magnet that delivers a strong magnetic pull, guaranteeing reliable actuation even in high‑vibration applications. The 3/8 inch press‑fit design simplifies installation, while the standard 1/2 inch (13 mm) gap ensures consistent detection across a wide range of panel configurations. Staggered T terminals provide a secure, low‑resistance electrical connection, reducing the risk of loose contacts over time. With a compact white finish, the unit blends seamlessly into control panels, offering both functional performance and aesthetic integration. The product meets stringent industry standards, reflected in its high customer rating and strong placement within the magnetic switches category.

Usage

Designed for a variety of industrial control applications, the 944TRE-WH magnetic contact excels in HVAC systems, security alarm panels, and automation equipment where reliable state detection is critical. Its copper construction resists corrosion, making it suitable for harsh environments such as manufacturing floors, outdoor enclosures, and marine installations. The rare earth magnet’s high coercivity ensures the switch remains stable under temperature fluctuations ranging from sub‑freezing to extreme heat, providing consistent performance in both cold storage facilities and high‑temperature processing plants. The 1/2 inch gap allows for flexible mounting options, accommodating different panel thicknesses without compromising sensitivity. Whether used in a new installation or as a replacement part in legacy systems, the contact’s straightforward wiring and press‑fit mounting reduce downtime and simplify maintenance procedures.
