HC2E-H-AC24V

Power relays are electrical devices commonly used to control and protect electrical circuits. Power relays with a current rating of over 2 amps are typically used in switching power supplies, electrical heaters, motor control, electric panel applications, and more. In this article, we will discuss the application field and working principle of HC2E-H-AC24V, a high current power relay that can handle currents up to 12 amps.

Overview of HC2E-H-AC24V

The HC2E-H-AC24V is a high current power relay designed for use in switching power supplies, motor control, electric panels, and other applications that require high current switching. The relay is rated for current up to 12 amperes, and is constructed with a coil that is rated for 24 volts. It is designed with a standard 2-pole configuration, and features a magnetic latching mechanism.

Application Field

The HC2E-H-AC24V high current power relay can be used in a variety of application fields, such as:

• Switching power supplies
• Motor control
• Electric panels
• Residential wiring
• Industrial machinery
• Electric heaters

In each of these applications, the HC2E-H-AC24V can be used to control and protect electrical circuits by switching high currents. The relay’s magnetic latching design ensures that the device will remain “on” even if external power is removed.

Working Principle

The working principle of the HC2E-H-AC24V is relatively simple. When the external power source is connected, the relay coil is energized and a magnetic field is established around the relay. This magnetic field attracts the armature, closing the contacts and switching on the relay. When the external power is removed, the magnetic field collapses and the armature is released, opening the contacts and switching off the relay.

The magnetic latching feature of the HC2E-H-AC24V ensures that the relay remains in its current state, even if power is removed. To reset the relay, external power must be reapplied in order to re-energize the coil and re-establish the magnetic field.

Conclusion

The HC2E-H-AC24V is a high current power relay designed for use in applications that require reliable switching of high currents. Its 24 volts rated coil and magnetic latching design make it an ideal choice for use in switching power supplies, motor control, electric panels, and more. Understanding the working principle of this relay will help to ensure proper operation and help to protect against potential malfunctions.
