BR246-1000B1-48V

Power relays are electrical relays used to control AC or DC power to a load. They are used to protect electrical circuits from overloads, improve system efficiency, and provide proper isolation between switching elements and other system components. The BR246-1000B1-48V is a power relay with a current carrying capacity of over 2 amps. This power relay is designed for use in industrial control and automation applications where high switching performance and robustness is required.

The BR246-1000B1-48V power relay has an operating voltage of up to 48 VDC, with a maximum switching power of 5 kilowatts. It has a mechanical life of 1 million operations at full load, and a dielectric strength of 4000 VAC. It has an operating temperature range of -25°C to +80°C, and a contact material of silver Tin (AgSn). This power relay has a slow-make/slow-break feature, which allows it to open and close contacts more gently compared to other power relays. This allows the BR246-1000B1-48V to reduce contact arcing and improve system performance.

The BR246-1000B1-48V power relay is typically used in AC or DC motor control applications such as speed and direction control of single-phase induction motors, voltage-sensitive relays, solid state relays, and three phase induction motor control. It is also used in balancing and protection relays, electro-mechanical counters, and in temperature control systems. This power relay can also be used in switching pumps, fans, compressors, alarms, and other industrial equipment.

The BR246-1000B1-48V power relay works by closing or opening a circuit when an electrical signal is applied, usually by a control circuit. The relay’s design consists of contacts that are mounted on a printed circuit board. The contacts are held in place by a coil, which applies a magnetic field to the contacts when an electrical charge is passed through the coil. This causes the contacts to move and either close or open the circuit. The BR246-1000B1-48V power relay can control voltages up to 48VDC and switching currents of up to 5 amps.

The BR246-1000B1-48V power relay is a reliable and efficient power relay that provides a number of features suitable for many industrial applications. It has an operating temperature range of -25°C to +80°C and can handle up to 5 kilowatts of switching power. It is designed for use in any system where high switching performance and robustness is required. The slow-make/slow-break feature makes it suitable for applications where contact arcing needs to be minimized.
