1415900-7

Power Relays, Over 2 Amps

The 1415900-7 is a power relay with an amperage of over 2 amps. This magnitude is fairly powerful for a normal household device, as it contains more than enough energy to power most small appliances. This relay specifically has a maximum range of 120 volts and 23 amps.

Application Field

The 1415900-7 has a wide range of applications, ranging from air conditioners and refrigerators to other consumer electronics. As this is a powerful relay with the capacity to switch high-power electrical signals, it can be used to control a variety of electro-mechanical processes, such as controlling heating elements in a water heater or operating motors in other machines. This relay is mostly used in light industrial and consumergrade applications.

Working Principle

The 1415900-7 operates on electromagnetism. It consists of an electromagnet, which is a coil of wire that is magnetized when current is passed through it, and a metal spring-loaded switch. When current is applied to the electromagnet, it creates a magnetic field that activates the switch, allowing the flow of electricity to be controlled. The electromagnetic circuit is then opened, causing the flow of electricity to be cut off.

The 1415900-7 is also equipped with a variety of safety features, including a diode circuit that guards against voltage surges, as well as an overload shutoff feature that disconnects the relay from the power source if the load exceeds the rated capacity.
