5-1617784-4

Power Relays, Over 2 Amps:

A power relay, also known as power contactor, is an electrical device used to control electrical circuits in a variety of applications from residential to industrial settings. The 5-1617784-4 is a two-amp power relay that is designed for reliable switching and controlling of large currents. It switches electrical circuits from contactors connected to mains power, enabling safer and economical electrical control. In addition, the relay is designed for use with a variety of voltage and current ratings, and has a highly reliable contact system that runs continuously without interruption.

Application Field:

The 5-1617784-4 is primarily used in industrial, motorsport and motorsport vehicle applications as control and circuit protection devices. It is also commonly used in a variety of other applications such as control and distribution of power supplies, lighting arrangements, electric machinery control, and automatic control systems. This power relay is suitable for any system with a current rating of up to 2 amps and a voltage range of 12 or 24 volts DC.

Working Principle:

The 5-1617784-4 makes use of a solenoid coil to create a magnetic field when a current is passed through it. This magnetic field attracts a movable armature connected to the contact system in the relay. The contacts, depending on the type of relay and its application, can be in the form of make/break contact or in the form of Form A, Form B, or Form C. The contact system closes or opens the circuit in order to switch on or off the devices it is connected to. The movable armature is then released from the contact system as soon as the current is stopped.

The 5-1617784-4 is designed to be highly reliable, robust and long lasting. Its contact system ensures that the contacts do not bounce or chatter, and also provides full-load operation for long time periods. The relay also has a unique latching system that allows the relay to remain in the On or Off position even after the current is interrupted, making it suitable for applications such as motorsport engine control.

In conclusion, the 5-1617784-4 power relay is a robust and reliable relay designed for use in a variety of applications ranging from residential to industrial settings. It is designed for use with a variety of voltage and current ratings, and features a highly reliable contact system for long-term operation. It also has a unique latching system that enables it to remain in an On or Off position even after the current is interrupted, making it a great choice for motorsport engine control.
