Overview

The G2R-1-E-DC12 is a high-capacity, single-pole double-throw (SPDT) power relay designed for heavy-duty switching applications. It features a 12VDC coil and is capable of handling resistive loads up to 16A at 250VAC or 30VDC. This through-hole component is optimized for PCB mounting with a flux-protection seal to prevent contamination during soldering.

Why Choose This Part

The high-capacity 16A rating in a compact 29mm x 13mm footprint makes it ideal for space-constrained power electronics. It offers a high dielectric strength and impulse withstand voltage, ensuring reliability in environments prone to electrical transients.

Applications

HVAC Controls
Switching compressors, fans, and heating elements in residential and industrial climate control systems.
Industrial Motor Drives
Controlling small single-phase motors and actuator solenoids in automation equipment.
Smart Home Appliances
Power management for high-wattage devices like washing machines, dishwashers, and ovens.
Power Supply Sequencing
Managing high-current AC mains input paths in industrial power distribution units.
