Power Relays, Over 2 Amps

Power relays, also known as contactors, are electrically operated switches used to control large current loads, usually over 2 amps. They are often used in industrial control applications, such as motor control, lighting control, and process control.

The 3-1415001-2 power relay is designed to work with AC or DC current loads up to 10A 250VAC or 15A 28VDC. It is an electromechanical device consisting of an actuating mechanism and a set of contacts or terminals. The device functions as an on/off switch, allowing current to be transferred from one set of terminals to the other when the actuating mechanism is activated.

The 3-1415001-2 operates based on the principle of a bimetallic strip. It is a strip of two metals fused together, which bend or expand when a temperature change occurs. As the strip is heated, the two metals expand at different rates, causing the strip to bend or twist. When a current is applied, a pair of contacts located on either side of the strip close, creating a circuit. When the current is removed, the bimetallic strip cools and contracts, disrupting the circuit. This is how the 3-1415001-2 power relay operates.

The 3-1415001-2 power relay is well suited for a variety of applications, such as light and fan switches, motor control, and process control. It can provide reliable control of large AC or DC loads up to 10A 250VAC or 15A 28VDC, with minimal maintenance. Its bimetallic strip design ensures quick response times, and its UL and CUL certifications provide added assurance of safety and durability.

The 3-1415001-2 power relay is a reliable and cost-effective solution for controlling large electrical loads. Its robust design allows it to handle heavy-duty applications with ease, and its quick response time makes it a great choice for applications requiring high speed switching. With UL and CUL certifications, it provides added safety and durability in the most demanding environments.
