Omron has developed an ultraslim relay capable of handling loads of up to 5A and offering high sensitivity for industrial control equipment. Omron's G6DS-1A/1A-H is slimmer and lighter than the G6D relay. With a 5mm width and miniature sise (20.3 x 5.08 x 12.5mm), it significantly reduces board space, making it ideal for high-density mounting in a variety of applications including programmable logic controller (PLC) based industrial process controllers, distributed I/O control systems, timers, temperature controllers and control boards.
The G6DS is a single pole relay with a rated coil voltage range of 5, 12 and 24V DC, allowing up to 100,000 operations with a resistive load of 5A at 250V AC/30V DC.
It has a coil power consumption of 180mW as standard and a highly sensitive coil type (120mW) is also available.
The relay has a fully sealed enclosure and a SPST-NO configuration.
It satisfies VDE (EN61131-2 and EN61010) reinforced insulation requirements and conforms to UL508/CSA C22.2 standards.
In line with Omron's policy for all new and existing components manufactured after April 2005, the new relay is fully RoHS compliant. Request a free brochure from Omron Electronics....
