Reed Relays

Reed relays are the go-to choice for many applications due to their low cost, small size, and low power consumption. While simple in design, they are available in both mono and multi-pole configurations, making them suitable for a broad range of applications. The 7301-05-1100 is a single-pole, single-throw (SPST) reed relay that is commonly used in electronic circuits and industrial automation.

7301-05-1100 Application Field

The 7301-05-1100 reed relay is mainly used in control circuits, alarm systems, medical devices, and other applications where switch contacts need to be actuated quickly and reliably. It is also an ideal choice for applications that require a short switching cycle time and/or high voltage/current switching capability. The 7301-05-1100 reed relay can replace mechanical relays, making it suitable for use in space-constrained applications, as well as those where environmental conditions would destroy a mechanical relay.

7301-05-1100 Working Principle

The 7301-05-1100 reed relay consists of a thin reed switch and a set of coils – separated, but magnetically linked by a ferromagnetic core. When a current is applied to the coils, the magnetic field around the core creates an electromagnetic force that actuates the reed switch, thus closing the contacts and completing the circuit. When the current is removed, the reed switch is released and the contacts remain closed until current is reapplied. The7301-05-1100 reed relay is capable of switching high AC and DC voltages, as well as current ratings up to 10A.

Conclusion

The 7301-05-1100 reed relay is a commonly used, low-cost, and reliable switching device. It is used in a wide range of applications, from control circuits to medical devices, and is one of the go-to relays for many projects due to its small size and low power consumption. The 7301-05-1100 is capable of switching high AC and DC voltages, as well as current ratings up to 10A, and is a great choice for space constrained applications or those that require a short switching cycle time.
