Current rating for the single-pole double-throw (SPDT) unit is 6A.
Six nominal voltages are available, namely 12, 24, 48, 60, 125 and 240V, with all devices having an input operating range of +/-10% and an ambient operating temperature of -40 to +55C.
Built into the relay module is a green LED to indicate supply status, making the module useful for commissioning and testing work.
Supplied with a robust plastic retaining clip, the relay can be instantly removed from the module for quick substitution and isolation if required.
For multiple installations, a 2- to 20-way jumper link is available, allowing all common terminals to be safely connected together.
As well as adding visual appeal and general neatness the jumper link accessory also eliminates the need to cut, strip and terminate short fiddly cable, which can greatly reduce installation times.
The relay contacts are heavy-duty silver tin oxide, increasing longevity and reliability and have a maximum switching voltage of 400V.
Carrying the CE approval mark and with a mechanical switching life of 10 million operations, the 38 Series AC version can be installed into industrial applications with confidence.
