Key Specifications & Features

Benefits & Applications

• Compact, High-Performance Design
  The small footprint makes it ideal for dense PCB layouts, while the 8 A rating allows handling of many common loads such as small motors, solenoids, or lighting circuits.
• Reliable Switching & Long Life
  With fast response times and a sealed enclosure, this relay offers dependable performance even in challenging or dusty environments.
• Flexible Use Across AC & DC Loads
  Although rated for 8 A resistive, this relay can switch both AC (up to 250 VAC) and DC (up to 30 VDC) loads, making it versatile for various control systems.
• Industrial & Automation Ready
  A great choice for control panels, machines, instrumentation, building automation, or any application requiring a solid, high-reliability relay.

Installation & Application Tips

1. PCB Layout & Clearance
   Ensure your board footprint matches the Omron G6B series pin layout and provide adequate spacing especially between high-voltage traces and relay coil pins.
2. Inductive Load Protection
   If switching inductive loads (e.g. motors, solenoids), include a flyback diode or snubber circuit to reduce arc damage and lengthen relay life.
3. Temperature & Mounting
   Allow space for cooling; avoid placing the relay near heat sources. Operate within –25 °C to +70 °C for best reliability.
4. Test Under Load
   Always perform a test with the intended load to verify contact performance and timing before final deployment.
5. Shielding & Isolation
   In noisy electrical environments or where EMI is present, consider additional board guard traces or shielding to maintain signal integrity.
