Omron Miniature Power Relays offer a miniature and low-height PCB power relay with 36A switching current. This design allows engineers to get 50,000 operations out of a high-switching current relay in smaller applications. Miniature power relays are used for various applications in automotive electronics field. Communication equipment, measurement instrument, FA equipment, electric home. appliances and automotive electronics, and all the rest. In line with the increasing range. A power relay is a device that uses an electromagnet to open or close a circuit when the input (coil) is correctly excited. They provide a high level of isolation between the control signal (coil) and the output (contacts) – typically with a rated impulse voltage of 4 or 6kV.
The working principle and characteristics of the relay It is actually an “automatic switch” that uses a smaller current to control a larger current. Relay plays the role of automatic adjustment, safety protection, and conversion circuit in the circuit. A relay is an electrically operated switch. It consists of a set of input terminals for a single or multiple control signals, and a set of operating contact terminals. The switch may have any number of contacts in multiple contact forms, such as make contacts, break contacts, or combinations thereof.
It is a switch that comes with an electromagnet to close or open a circuit. Mostly, it uses an armature, an electromagnet, contacts, and a spring. Generally, a power relay gets power from the battery source, and the electromagnet draws the armature. Also, it includes a moveable arm made of iron.
