SIL24-1A72-71D

Reed relays are electromagnetic switches that provide isolation and signal control between circuits. The SIL24-1A72-71D is the most compact reed relay with the widest electrical characteristics in its class.

The SIL24-1A72-71D is based on a non-polarized reed relay type, which means that either a normally open or normally closed contact can be used without the need for the contact to be reversed. The smallest reed relay of its kind, the SIL24-1A72-71D has a contact load of 24V to 40V at a maximum current of 15mA. It has a low power consumption of only 0.3 W and a switching life of up to 30 million cycles. Additionally, it offers a wide temperature range from -40°C to +85°C.

One application for the SIL24-1A72-71D is in high frequency signal control, such as in telecommunications networks. The reed relay is also ideal for switching electrical pulses due to its low current, and it is very useful in isolating analog signals that have a very high impedance.

The working principle of the SIL24-1A72-71D is based on a very simple design. The core of the relay is a glass tube that is filled with an inert gas, such as argon, and sealed with two contacts at either end. When a current is applied to the coil, a magnetic field is generated, which in turn magnetizes the contacts. This causes the contacts to move closer together and close the circuit. When the current is stopped, the magnetic field dissipates, and the contacts move apart, thus opening the circuit.

The SIL24-1A72-71D is a versatile and reliable reed relay, and is an excellent choice for signal control applications and isolating analogue signals. It offers low power consumption and high switching life, and its wide temperature range makes it suitable for a variety of applications.
