Sugarcube relay is cost-effective for appliances

Meeting requirements for low cost and optimal use of PCB space, a new miniature power PCB relay now completes Tyco Electronics' product range for sugarcube type relays.

Meeting requirements for low cost and optimal use of PCB space, a new miniature power PCB relay now completes Tyco Electronics' product range for sugarcube type relays.

The T7S power PCB relay complements existing PB and T7N relays and is a very cost-effective solution for domestic appliances, heating control, building control as well as measurement and control applications.

Measuring only 19.2 x 15.3 x 15.5mm, saving valuable space on the PCB, the new T7S relay range is available in either fluxproof or washtight versions as standard.

All devices use AgZnO contacts and are fully RoHS compliant.

The WG versions are constructed with materials which meet the requirements of IEC60335.

T7S relays feature a single contact with 10 or 6A current rating at either 85 or 105C, a sensitive 360mW coil, a maximum switching voltage of 400V AC, a maximum breaking capacity of 2500VA and are available with single changeover or normally open contacts.

Life expectancy for the standard type is 50,000 cycles at 10A up to 85C or 100,000 cycles at 6A up to 105C.

Further technical details of the new sugarcube power PCB relay series include: an operating temperature range from -40 to +105C; a typical operate/release time of 10/5ms; and vibration resistance of better then 14g for NO contact and better than 8g for NC contact at 30 to 400Hz.
