What is the function of this general purpose relay?

The general purpose relay is designed to control various electrical loads in automation systems, acting as an interface between low-power control signals and higher power circuits.

Can this relay module be used in a wide range of ambient temperatures?

Yes, the relay module is suitable for operation in a broad range of ambient temperatures, typically from -40 °C to 55 °C, making it versatile for various environmental conditions.

What type of contact does the relay have?

The relay features a single-pole double-throw (SPDT) contact configuration, which provides one normally open (NO) and one normally closed (NC) contact.

What is the typical response time for the relay to activate?

The typical response time for the relay to activate is approximately 6 milliseconds.

What is the maximum switching voltage for this relay?

The maximum switching voltage for the relay is 250 V AC/DC, and it is recommended to install a separating plate for voltages greater than 250 V between identical terminal blocks in adjacent modules.

What is the typical input current for the relay coil?

The typical input current for the relay coil is around 3.5 mA at 120 V AC and 3 mA at 110 V DC.

What is the flammability rating of the relay's housing?

The housing of the relay has a flammability rating of V0 according to UL 94, indicating that it is flame-retardant.

What type of connection method is used for the coil and contact sides of the relay?

The relay utilises a screw connection method for both the coil and contact sides, providing a secure and reliable connection for the conductors.

What is the mechanical service life of the relay?

The mechanical service life of the relay is rated at 2x10^7 cycles, which indicates its durability and longevity in switching applications.

Are there any specific mounting instructions for this relay module?

The relay module can be mounted in any position and can be assembled in rows with zero spacing on a standard DIN rail, according to the manufacturer's instructions.
