New power relay from Panasonic Industry

This innovative device boasts a 110A carrying capacity and a 90A switching capability, offering highly reliable performance for solar inverters and various other high-load energy management applications.

The compact HE-A power relay (measuring 33mm × 38mm x 38.8mm) features a 3.6mm NO contact gap and a nearly unmatched feedback contact in the market. Key specifications include an operating power of 1.92W (holding power: ≤310mW), an operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C, an electrical lifespan of 90A, 277VAC for 1,000 operations, 90A, 60VDC for 10,000 operations, and a short circuit capacity of SCCR 5000Arms. Additionally, the relay incorporates a welding detection function with a mirror contact mechanism, complying with EN60947-4-1, and holds UL/C-UL and VDE approvals.

Bernd Jaschinski, Product Manager Power Relays at Panasonic Industry Europe, said: “In Germany we have a special term for such a versatile product: ‘Tausendsassa’. This term stands for ‘outstanding versatility’, which is exactly one of the main features of our HE-A power relay. It provides all-round performance for many different energy management applications, e.g. solar inverters, EV charging systems, industrial automation and many more.”
