Omron Electronic Components' G9E series of DC power relays have a sealed, gas-filled construction that cools the arc created during switching.

Omron Electronic Components has released the G9E series of DC power relays, providing a reliable means of disconnection in high-power battery applications These relays feature a sealed, gas-filled construction that cools the arc created during switching

Subsequently, the contact gap is reduced, allowing for a 70% reduction in overall size when compared to contactors.

An added benefit is a reduction of operating noise by half.

There are three models to choose from, all in a SPST-NO contact configuration.

The G9EA measures 36 x 73 x 67.2mm in 60A at 400V DC and 100A at 120V DC versions, the G9EC 44 x 98 x 86.7mm switches up to 200A at 400V DC and the G9EB 25 x 60 x 58mm switches up to 25A at 250V DC.

Operating coil voltages include 12, 24, 48, 60 and 100V DC.

All of these DC power relays have a di-electric strength of 2500V AC with an impulse withstand of 4500V when operating in an ambient temperature range of -40 to +70C, barring any icing or condensation.

The G9E is used in hybrid vehicles, fuel cells, wind and solar power generation, battery operated golf carts and forklifts and industrial equipment.
