G2RL-1A-E-HA DC12
Overview
The G2RL-1A-E-HA DC12 is a high-capacity power relay from Omron designed to switch loads up to 16 A. This single-pole single-throw (SPST-NO) relay features a 12VDC coil and is rated for operation in high-temperature environments up to 105 degrees Celsius. It provides a compact through-hole solution for switching high-voltage AC and DC loads in domestic and industrial appliances.
Why Choose This Part
This relay offers a high switching capacity of 16 A within a small footprint and can handle switching voltages up to 440VAC or 300VDC. Its 105 degree Celsius rating makes it suitable for demanding thermal environments, and the flux-protected seal ensures reliability during the soldering process.
Applications
Key Specifications
Getting Started
To drive this relay from a microcontroller, use a logic-level NPN transistor or MOSFET as a low-side switch along with a flyback diode to protect against inductive spikes. Ensure the PCB traces for the 16 A load pins are sufficiently wide and use a heavy copper weight to manage thermal rise during high-current operation.
