Power Relays, Over 2 Amps - KUP-14A45-12 application field and working principle

The KUP-14A45-12 is one of the many power relays that falls into the over 2 amp category. This power relay has many applications in the electrical engineering realm that the efficient and steady performance it provides makes it a top choice. This article will discuss the application field and the working principle behind this model of power relay.

Application Field

This particular type of power relays is mainly used in commercial, industrial, and residential electrical engineering; this model of power relays has several applications, including single or multiple switches, motor starters, lighting, and HVAC systems. Its features make it a great choice by the contractors and electricians when it comes to the installation in those kinds of systems. It can operate on DC and AC, and its impedance rating of 12V DC, or 480V AC makes it a versatile choice depending on the specific task.

Since the KUP-14A45-12 is a heavy-duty relay, it is suitable for more demanding applications like agricultural and automotive equipment. This model of relays can handle high current loads at high speed, withstanding a maximum of 2 amps without overheating. Furthermore, its corrosion resistant contacts are ideal for harsh environment applications.

Working Principle

The KUP-14A45-12 is an electromechanical power relay. Its functioning is based on a solenoid-operated coil. In its simplest form, electricity is applied to the armature, causing it to become magnetically attracted and pull a contact group into the closed position. The contacts are connected to the coil, which is in turn connected to a power source. This causes the electric current to be transferred. When the power is applied, a magnetic field is created and the contacts close when it is activated.

The design of the KUP-14A45-12 is compact and efficient. It has a simple construction and two or three contacts enabling it to switch current of AC or DC power with a maximum load of 2 amps. Other features of the KUP-14A45-12 include low dielectric strength, fast electrical response time, and reliable switch action.

The KUP-14A45-12 power relay is a reliable and efficient choice for any electrician. It has several applications in various fields including commercial, industrial, and automotive, and it can withstand current loads up to 2 amps. Its simple design and construction provides a reliable switch action with fast electrical response time. With its many features, the KUP-14A45-12 is an ideal solution for contractors and electricians looking to tackle their toughest applications.
