G4Q-212S AC24

Power relays are ubiquitous pieces of equipment found in all forms of electrical systems. These devices are generally used to switch high-voltage or high-currents quickly off or on, and while the output is usually low-current, they can also be used to perform isolation, enabling components to dissipate heat more efficiently. One such relay is the G4Q-212S AC24 model.

The G4Q-212S is a 24VAC power relay that is rated at 2000W capacity and up to 6A overload current. It features an operating temperature range between -40°C and 100°C, and a maximum cycle frequency of 1200 cycles per hour. The G4Q is designed to protect circuits against overloads and short circuits, as well as providing reliable switching and overcurrent protection. It is UL certified and meets IEC60950 safety standards, which means it can be used in a variety of industrial settings and hazardous areas.

The G4Q-212S is a single-pole, double-throw (SPDT) relay. This means that it can switch between two different outputs with a single input. It is often used in applications such as motor control, overcurrent protection, and circuit switching. The G4Q supports both normally open (NO) and normally closed (NC) contact ratings. The NO contact ratings are rated up to 0.2A at 25V DC, while the NC contacts are rated up to 0.1A at 24V DC. This makes the G4Q an ideal choice for applications where high current switching is required.

The working principle of the G4Q-212S is relatively simple. When a current is applied to the coil, a magnetic field is generated which then pulls the contact closer to the coil\'s centre. This drives the contact away from its initial resting position, and when the current supplied is still the contacts move back into a resting position. By alternating between these two points, the relay is able to switch off or on depending on the current supplied.

The G4Q-212S offers many advantages over other types of power relays as it is capable of delivering higher current and is more reliable. The G4Q-212S is suitable for a variety of applications such as electronic control systems, switching off motor circuits in the event of an overload and overcurrent, and even providing reliable switching of high-currents in a variety of industrial settings and hazardous areas.
