Omron Electronics
G2RL power relay
Thurlby Thandar Instruments (TTi), a distributor of passive, connector, electromechanical and discrete components, has announced that Omron is extending its G2RL relay with a high-temperature version.
This Omron G2RL-1A-E-CV will be aimed at domestic-appliance cooking and other heater control applications involving exposure to higher-temperature conditions.
It is rated for use at temperatures up to 105C, which is 20C higher than standard parts.
The G2RL-1A-E-CV is also claimed to offer good switching performance with longer electrical endurance of up to 100,000 operations switching 16A at 250VAC at 105C.
Initially released in SPST-NO open form, TTi expects Omron to release the higher-temperature versions in SPDT type and to offer normally closed (NC) versions.
Available in 24 different models, Omron's G2RL PCB relay family is suitable for ovens, washing machines, boilers and HVAC equipment.
The high-sensitivity type, G2RL-H, has a coil sensitivity of 250MW and is available with a UL 1446 Class F coil insulation system.
The relays conform to VDE (EN 61810-1/EN 60255-23) and UL 508/CSA C22.2 standards and meet VDE0700 regulations for the safety of household and similar electrical appliances according to VDE0110.
