Overview

The G5LE-1A4 DC12 is a subminiature power relay from Omron designed for high-capacity switching in a compact PCB footprint. This SPST-NO (1 Form A) relay features a 12VDC coil and is fully sealed, making it suitable for environments where flux resistance or washing is required during manufacturing.

Why Choose This Part

This relay offers a high switching capacity of up to 10A in a small package while maintaining low coil power consumption of approximately 400mW. Its fully sealed construction provides protection against environmental contaminants and allows for automated soldering processes.

Applications

Home Appliances
Switching power for heaters, motors, and lighting in washing machines or refrigerators.
HVAC Controls
Controlling compressor fans and solenoid valves in air conditioning systems.
Industrial Automation
Acting as a galvanically isolated interface between low-power PLC outputs and high-current actuators.
Office Automation
Power management and peripheral switching in printers and photocopiers.

Getting Started

When designing for this relay, ensure the 12VDC drive circuit includes a flyback diode (such as a 1N4007) to protect the driving transistor from inductive back-EMF. Maintain appropriate creepage and clearance distances on the PCB between the low-voltage coil pins and the high-voltage load contacts to meet safety standards.
