ALFG2PF241

Power Relays are specialized switches which close or open by using power. This type of relay can be found in a variety of applications, such as automotive, industrial, telecommunications, and medical industry. The ALFG2PF241 is a power relay designed for applications with current ratings over 2 Amps.

Design Features

The ALFG2PF241 power relay offers a number of features to ensure optimal performance. It is constructed with a DIN-rail mounting that ensures secure and efficient installation. The 2-form-A and 1-form-C contact ratings are10 A at 250 fast-on (8.2 mm) terminals which supports a wide range of application. The auxiliary contact ratings are 0.25A @ 24V AC/DC. The coil voltage is 24VDC and it has negligible power consumption when energized. It has an inherent short-circuit protection and a maximum temperature of 55°C.

Working Principle

The ALFG2PF241 power relay works by applying an electrical current to the coil which produces an electromagnetic field. This field actuates the armature which causes the contacts to open or close. The armature is connected to the actuating lever which is used to open or close the contacts depending on the movement of the armature. The force of the magnetic field causes the armature to move, pushing or releasing the actuating lever, thereby controlling the open and close of the contacts.

Application Field

The ALFG2PF241 power relay is suitable for a wide range of applications with current ratings over 2 Amps. The wide range of contact ratings make it suitable for industrial, automotive and telecommunications applications which require medium control power. It can also be used for medical applications which require switching circuits with high speed, precision and reliability. It is suitable for controlling solenoid valves, contact thermostats, and motor control circuits.

Conclusion

The ALFG2PF241 power relay is a reliable and efficient switch for applications that require current ratings over 2 Amps ranging from industrial, automotive, and telecommunications applications to medical applications. Its DIN-rail mounting design ensures secure and easy installation. The auxiliary contact ratings provide additional control capabilities. It is also designed with an inherent short-circuit protection and a maximum temperature rating of 55°C.
