Power Relays, Over 2 Amps

A power relay over 2 amps is a device that is used in control systems to turn on or off a high current circuit component. It is typically used to control higher voltage electric motors, heating elements, solenoids, and other components that require high current. The power relay is capable of holding high current loads for extended periods of time, and it is designed to prevent power surges and heat build-up.

Applications

Power relays over 2 amps are especially useful in industrial applications where controlling high current, heavy duty equipment is required. They are often found in factories, where controlling powerful motors and other high current circuits is essential to production operations. Additionally, power relays can be used to control large lighting systems in commercial and residential spaces, as well as large audio and video systems found in concert halls, theaters, and other public spaces.

Power relays can also be used in the automotive industry, where they are used to control the power supply of airbag systems, ignition systems, and other components. Other uses include controlling hot tub and sauna heating elements, electric fences, and fans and pumps for commercial and residential HVAC systems.

Working Principle

The power relay over 2 amps functions when an electrical current from a power source flows through its coil to activate the electromagnetic field in the wire. As the current is increased, the relay closes its contacts, which energizes the load and triggers the connected circuit component. When the current is decreased, the relay deenergizes and its contacts open. The power relay is then reset and ready to activate again.

When the current from the power source is high enough to energize the relay, the electromagnetic field created by the coil attracts an armature located in the center of the power relay. The armature closes the contacts, connecting the load to the power source. When the load is energized, it draws a certain amount of power, which reduces the current flowing back to the coil of the relay, ultimately de-energizing the armature and opening the contacts.

The power relay is now reset, and it can be triggered again by increasing the current from the power source. It is usually held in this reset position by a spring or clip, which helps to keep the contact points closed until the current is increased. This ensures that the electric current reaches the intended load and is not interrupted by other outside forces.
