Key Benefits & Applications
-
Reliable Switching for Control Circuits
With its SPDT contact, this relay can route a control signal to NO or NC paths, enabling flexible logic in control panels or automation systems. -
Moderate Load Capacity
The 15 A contact rating supports many motor loads, solenoids, heaters or general loads in industrial and building control systems. -
Compact & Modular Design
The plug-in format allows quick replacement or modularization in field installations and simplifies maintenance. -
Durability for Industrial Use
Designed for high cycle life and long-term reliability in industrial, HVAC or automated machinery environments. -
Common in Automation & Building Systems
Used for switching control signals, contactor coils, alarms, interlocks, or relay logic in machines and electrical panels.
Installation & Usage Notes
-
Socket & Wiring
Use a compatible relay socket that matches the RPM series pin arrangement. Ensure pins are clean and socket contacts are in good condition. -
Power & Protection
Use appropriate coil suppression (diodes, RC snubbers) if the relay drives inductive loads, although for DC coil applications the user should check manufacturer recommendations. -
Load Considerations
Do not exceed 15 A (resistive) or exceed manufacturer ratings for inductive or motor loads without derating. -
Ambient Conditions
Install where ambient temperature stays within specified range (–40 °C to +55 °C). Avoid extreme heat, moisture, or vibration if possible. -
Periodic Inspection
In heavy-duty or harsh-duty installations, occasionally inspect contact wear, socket tightness, and relay operation to ensure no malfunction.
