G2RL-1A4 DC24

Power Relays, Over 2 Amps: G2RL-1A4 DC24 Application Field and Working Principle

A power relay is a device used to control electrical power. It consists of a set of input terminals for connection to a power source, and a set of output terminals. When a small current is applied to the input terminals, the output terminals are activated and the device is switched “on”, allowing power to flow through. The G2RL-1A4 DC24 is a power relay from the G2RL-series. It has a maximum switching power of 2 Amps and a maximum switching voltage of DC 24 V.

Structural Features

The G2RL-1A4 is a slim-package power relay with a 10.2 mm width, 42.8 mm length and 19.7 mm depth. It has SPDT contacts and a DC coil voltage rating of 24V. It is suitable for mounting on a printed circuit board, or for terminal or plug-in operation, and comes with a range of optional availability list. The relay features excellent surge capability, a wide range of operating temperatures and longer electrical and mechanical life.

Sub-Miniature Helical-Continuous Coil Type

The G2RL-1A4 is a sub-miniature helical-continuous coil type relay. This type of design gives it a compact form factor and a low coil power consumption rate in order to operate effectively. It also features improved coil surge suppression capability, a wide range of coil operating voltage, and a wide variety of contact configurations.

Applications

The G2RL-1A4 is suitable for many applications including industrial machines, inverters, lighting control, vending machines and home appliance systems. It is also suitable for use in applications requiring a low switching voltage compared to other power relays, such as computer motherboards.

Working Principle

The working principle of the G2RL-1A4 is based on the mechanisms of electromagnetic induction. When a current is applied to the relay’s coil, a magnetic force is generated. This force causes a corresponding change in the shape of the contacts, allowing the current flow from the input terminals to the output terminals. The power relay works on a simple principle; the higher the current applied to the coil, the greater the force generated, and the more reliable the working of the ion.

Safety Features

The G2RL-1A4 is designed to minimize electric shock and fire risk. It has a surge surge suppression capability, a dielectric strength between the coil and the contacts which surpasses all safety requirements, and a contact form that helps prevent arcing.

Conclusion

The G2RL-1A4 is a reliable power relay which provides reliable operation up to a maximum switching power of 2 Amps and DC 24 V. It has a low coil power consumption rate and broad operating temperature range. Due to its safety features, it is suitable for various industrial systems and home appliance applications. It is also suitable for small-size applications where a low switching voltage is required.
