IDEC RC Series printed circuit board (PCB) relays include features that support a range of industrial-grade applications. They come in several low-profile configurations, provide high-capacity power switching, and perform reliably even in challenging environments.
The RC Series relays are designed to mount directly to a PCB using through-holes, and can be wave-, dip-, robotically, or hand-soldered. Their configuration provides a low-profile height of 16.5mm or less, with high voltage and current ratings in relation to their size and weight.
Coil voltages are available in a range of 5/12/24/48/110 VDC, and contacts are rated at 24 VDC and 250 VAC. The DPDT versions carry 8 A contact ratings, while the SPDT versions are available as 12 A (standard) or 16 A (high capacity).
The relays are designed to operate from -40 to 85°C, with a lifetime of 20 million operations (at 18,000 times per hr) unloaded, or at least 100,000 times at rated load. With an impulse withstand voltage of 10,000 V, the relays work well in electromagnetically problematic environments. They have cUL, VDE, CQC, and CE certification.
