Overview

The G2RL-1A-E-ASI-DC12 is a high-capacity, single-pole power relay from Omron designed for high-current switching in a compact PCB footprint. It features a 12VDC coil and is capable of switching resistive loads up to 16A at 250VAC, making it suitable for both power management and industrial control tasks. This specific ASI variant includes improved insulation performance and is rated for operation in ambient temperatures up to 85 degrees Celsius.

Why Choose This Part

This relay offers a low profile height of 15.7mm while maintaining a high switching capacity of 16A, allowing for denser PCB stacking. It features flux protection sealing and high insulation between the coil and contacts, ensuring reliable operation in demanding environments. The 33.3mA coil current at 12VDC provides a balance between robust switching force and efficient power consumption.

Applications

Smart Home Appliances
Switching high-power heating elements and compressor loads in washing machines, ovens, and refrigerators.
HVAC Controls
Managing furnace fans and air conditioning unit contactors where a 16A switching capacity is required.
Industrial Automation
Providing galvanic isolation and control for actuators and solenoid valves within PLC-based systems.
Power Strips and Smart Plugs
Serving as the primary switching element for smart energy management devices and remote power cycling.

Getting Started

When integrating this relay, ensure the PCB traces are sized appropriately for the 16A maximum current to prevent overheating. Use a flyback diode (such as a 1N4007) across the 12VDC coil terminals to protect sensitive driving electronics from inductive voltage spikes during turn-off. Consult the footprint dimensions of 29mm by 12.7mm to ensure sufficient clearance for creepage and clearance requirements.
