RJ1S-CL-D12

Power Relays over 2 Amps serve a variety of purposes in today’s modern electronics. The purpose of these components can range from an on/off switch for large motors or lights to an electronic safety control in medical equipment. Regardless of the application, most Power Relays over 2 Amps require a higher voltage than traditional electronic components, and therefore require specialized components to handle their higher operating voltages. One of these specialized components is the RJ1S-CL-D12 Relay from Panasonic.

The RJ1S-CL-D12 Relay is a compact low voltage relay designed for high voltage applications. It is specifically designed to handle up to 12 volts of operating voltage, with a maximum voltage of 240 volts AC or 120 volts DC. This makes it ideal for a variety of applications where higher voltages are needed, such as portable medical and industrial equipment. The RJ1S-CL-D12 is also designed to handle higher currents than standard power relays, up to 2.5 amps at 120 volts AC or DC, and up to 5 amps at 240 volts AC or DC.

In addition to its higher voltage and current capabilities, the RJ1S-CL-D12 is also designed for quick response times, with a rise time of 10 milliseconds and a fall time of 30 milliseconds. This makes it ideal for applications that require precise switching, such as those found in high speed medical imaging equipment. The RJ1S-CL-D12 is also designed for long life, with a durability rating of up to 250,000 operations.

The working principle behind the RJ1S-CL-D12 is relatively simple. When an AC/DC voltage is applied to the relay’s input terminals, the internal coil produces an electromagnetic field which in turn pulls the armature. This movement causes the contacts within the relay to change, thus switching the circuit and completing the circuit. When the current is no longer applied to the coils, the spring-loaded return armature will reset the contacts to their original position, and the cycle will start again.

The RJ1S-CL-D12 is designed for a variety of applications, ranging from switching on/off motors, lights, and other high voltage equipment to providing precise switching for medical equipment. Compared to standard power relays over 2 amps, the RJ1S-CL-D12 is smaller in size, has a higher voltage and current rating, and faster response times, making it the ideal choice for a wide variety of applications.
