RM838048

Power relays are a mainstay in automation control systems. The RM838048 power relay is a small cyclic time relay that operates automatically using an adjustable timer. It can be used in various applications to safely control electrical loads of up to two amps.

This time-delay relay operates via two sources of power – an operating voltage and a control voltage. The operating voltage (also known as the supply voltage) is the voltage that is fed into the device to keep it running. The operating voltage range for the RM838048 is 5V to 28V DC. The control voltage is the signal to the device that triggers or turns off the relay. For the RM838048, the control voltage is 3V to 15V DC. The two power sources are connected to a common ground.

The RM838048 uses a one-way switching control system. This means it switches contacts when the control voltage is applied, and the contact stays open until the control voltage is removed. This allows the user to control the amount of time that the contact remains open by varying the control voltage. The timer is adjustable and can be set to switch the contacts on and off in intervals between 0.10 and 55 seconds.

The RM838048 is designed for use in applications that require a simple and reliable way to control electrical loads of up to 2 amps. It can be used to time the on/off cycles of a variety of devices such as lights, motors, pumps, solenoids, and other low voltage loads. It is also ideal for use in applications where a time delay is required before a circuit is switched on or off.

The RM838048 is also designed for easy installation and use. It is a standalone device that comes with mounting hardware and wiring to allow it to be easily connected to the device or system it is controlling. The device also features several protection mechanisms such as a magnetic protection circuit that prevents the contacts from burning out due to a sudden surge in current.

The RM838048 is a versatile and affordable power relay that can be used in a variety of applications to safely control electrical loads of up to two amps. Its simple and reliable one-way switching control system, adjustable timer, and protection mechanisms make it an ideal solution for many applications.
