Power Relays are a type of electrical device used to switch circuits remotely. The 1-1618006-7 model is part of the "Over 2 Amps" category of relays. These devices are designed for use in automotive and industrial applications, where a smaller amount of current is needed to operate the switch. In this article, we will discuss the specifics of this relay, its application field, and its working principle.

The 1-1618006-7 Power Relay is a minor current double-pole double-throw steel contact four-pole relay. It is specifically designed for use in 12V automotive applications. Its specifications include a coil voltage of 12DCV, a continuous current rating of 2.5 amps, a power rating of 25W, and a coil resistance of almost 0.7 ohms. The overall dimensions of this relay are 65.3mm(W) x 44.1mm(H).

In terms of its application field, the 1-1618006-7 Power Relay is typically used for switching on and off lights and other low-power electric devices. It is also used for controlling larger loads such as starting vehicles and other machinery, as it can sustain a current load of up to 2.5 amps. These relays can also be used for electric motors and for controlling circuits with a high electrical resistance.

The 1-1618006-7’s working principle is actually quite simple. When the user applies a voltage to the main coil, the movable terminal of the relay is connected to the other side of the circuit, thus completing the loop. When the voltage is removed, the movable terminal is disconnected from the circuit and the relay returns to its open state. This can be accomplished with the use of a switch or an external controller such as a timer or Microprocessor.

The working principle of a Power Relay is based on the electromagnet principle. When a current is applied to the main coil, a magnetic field is created. This magnetic field then creates a force that moves the movable contact arm. When the movable contact arm completes the circuit, it allows current to flow through the relay, thus completing the intended circuit. The strength of the magnetic field determines the amount of current that flows through the circuit, and the relay can be calibrated to open and close a circuit at predetermined voltages or other conditions.

Power relays like the 1-1618006-7 are invaluable components in automotive and industrial applications due to their wide range of application fields and their ability to switch circuits remotely. The device is a prime example of the application of the electromagnet principle in relays and can be used to control loads and circuits with a high electrical resistance. Most importantly, the 1-1618006-7 relay is rated for use with voltages up to 12VDC and can switch up to 2.5A continuously.
