ABSTRACT:
An electric switch magnetically activatable including a Hall Effect sensor with a permanent magnet fixed on one side of the sensor and magnetic shielding interposed between the sensor and fixed magnet to direct flux away from the sensor, such that an operating magnet upon movement toward and away from the other side of the sensor cooperates with fixed magnet to produce an increased magnetic field through the sensor to activate the latter.
