Compact RJ Series Relays from Live Electronics
Specialist electronics distributor Live Electronics has added Idec’s RJ series relays. At only 12.5mm wide they are ideal for use in areas where space is limited.
Whilst compact, they retain high build quality and durability, offering a lifetime of 50 million cycles and 200,000 cycles at full resistive AC load. Manufactured using spot-welding technology, the RJ relays have no need for internal jumper wires or solder joints. Their new return spring design is said to outperform competitors and has a contact rating of up to 16A. Correlating sockets include multiple features for ease of use and can be DIN rail, panel, or PCB-mounted. The blade model has an optional green, non-polarised LED with Idec’s unique light guide.
Claire Childs, Live Electronics MD commented: “RJ Relays offer an excellent standard of design and manufacture, making them ideal for deployment in a wide range of applications, including the appliance and materials handling sectors.”
