JV1-18V

Power relays are designed for switching loads of over 2 amps.

A JV1-18V relay is a type of power relay made by the Panasonic Electric Works Corporation. It is a single-phase, AC output, solid state relay with a rated operating current of 1.6A and a maximum load current of 18A. This type of relay is used for many applications, including motor control, lighting control, temperature control, power distribution, and many other industrial and commercial applications.

The JV1-18V relay is based on a thyristor-controlled, zero-cross switching system. It uses a semiconductor switch, called a thyristor, to control the power output of the relay. The thyristor is triggered when the load current approaches zero. This triggers a reset pulse, which is then sent to the controller, informing it to turn on the load. This reset pulse occurs when the current reaches a certain threshold level, typically 200mA.

Once the load is on, the relay maintains the set current by controlling the switching on and off of the thyristor. This ensures that the load receives only the amount of current necessary to operate correctly. The relay also provides protection when an overload occurs, by setting a trip point that limits the current to a safe level.

The power output of the JV1-18V relay can be adjusted by varying the operating voltage. This allows the user to increase or decrease the current levels for optimal performance in a range of applications. The relay is also equipped with over-temperature and over-voltage protection, which prevents damage to the load from excessive heat or voltage.

The JV1-18V relay is used in a variety of applications, ranging from simple motor control to sophisticated temperature and lighting control. It is also ideal for powering industrial machinery, such as conveyor systems. The relay also provides a reliable and cost-effective solution for controlling large loads, such as water pumps and air conditioners.

The JV1-18V relay is a reliable and efficient power relay, designed for applications where a high current load needs to be switched with precision and accuracy. It is easy to install and use, and provides reliable performance in a variety of different applications.
