ALZ52B12W

Power Relays, Over 2 Amps

The ALZ52B12W is a power relay made for applications that require more than 2 Amps. It is a highly reliable latching relay that has a long engineered lifetime of 100 million cycles, making it an perfect choice for applications that need to switch power on/off constantly. This relay is equipped with LED lights for power indication, and the switching side of the latching design, making it simple to use. Its operation voltage is 5 - 30 VoDC. The size of this relay is 12 x 9.2 x 11.5mm, making it relatively small, and suitable for various applications.

Applications

The main application for ALZ52B12W is for high power switching on/off applications. This could include elevator up/down switches, car door locks, fuse boxes, as well as many industrial automated process control applications. It can handle up to 10A, making it suitable for powerful electric motors. It is also suitable for printed circuit board (PCB) mounted applications, as its small size allows it to fit easily into crowded PCB systems.

Working Principle

The ALZ52B12W relay works on a latching basis. This means that once the circuit is energized, the switch remains in the position it is in until the power source is cut off, and another power source is applied. The advantage of this is that the switch does not need to be constantly supplied with power in order to keep its current position. This allows for great savings in power usage, as well as keeping maintenance to a minimum.

The LED lights on the relay, called indicators, allow for a visual confirmation of the switch’s current position. The LED’s are set up in an alternating pattern, so when there is no current being supplied the LEDs will be off, but when the circuit is energized, one of the two alternating LEDs will be on. This allows the user to quickly and easily confirm the current position of the switch.

Conclusion

The ALZ52B12W is an excellent choice for power switching applications, as its latching mechanism and small size make it a reliable and power-efficient choice. It is made to handle up to 10 Amps of power, so it can be used in many different high-power applications. Its LED indicators also allow for an easy confirmation of the switch’s position. All in all, the ALZ52B12W is a great choice for your power switching needs.
