G2R-2-AC24

Power relays are devices used to control and protect high power circuits. They are available in various sizes and ratings. The 2 Amps G2R-2-AC24 is one of the most common power relays used in a variety of applications. This article explores the application fields and working principle of the G2R-2-AC24.

Applications

The G2R-2-AC24 is most commonly used for controlling motor circuits, such as in automotive and industrial motor control applications. It is particularly suitable for controlling automotive body control modules. It can be used to control high power circuits, such as in heating and cooling systems, AC and DC motor drives, and street and industrial lighting. Its versatility allows for a wide range of applications in a variety of fields.

Working Principle

The G2R-2-AC24 power relays are designed to control high power circuits with low power input. When the switch is activated, the contact opens and the power is diverted to the load. This allows the relay to be activated without having to provide a high-power input. The relay is designed with a normally open contact, meaning that there is no power feeding the load until the relay is activated.

When the relay is activated, the contact closes and the power is fed to the load. The power relays are designed to control the power flow according to the input voltage. For example, if the input voltage is 12V, the relay will open the contact when the voltage exceeds 12V and the contact will close when the voltage drops below 12V. The contact will remain in the closed position until the power source is switched off.

The G2R-2- AC24 is designed to provide protection against overload and short circuit. Internal mechanisms are triggered in order to protect the device from overload. These mechanisms are designed to detect when the current exceeds the maximum load, and the contact will open to prevent any further damage. Similarly, the contact will open when a short circuit is detected, to protect the device from damage.

In addition, the G2R-2-AC24 is designed with a voltage doubler which helps to increase the load and reduce the power loss. The contact will stay in the open position until the voltage exceeds the maximum value, at which point the contact will close and the load power will be increased.

Conclusion

The G2R-2-AC24 power relay is a reliable device which is suitable for a wide variety of applications. It is designed for controlling and protecting high power circuits, and is capable of providing protection against overload and short circuit. The voltage doubler feature also helps to increase the load and reduce power loss. This makes the G2R-2-AC24 an ideal choice for controlling motor circuits.
