Overview

The G5Q-1A4-EL3-HA DC12 is a specialized SPST-NO (1 Form A) power relay designed specifically for motor loads and high-inrush applications. Operating with a 12VDC coil and drawing 33.3 mA, this through-hole component is fully sealed to withstand harsh environment processing and PCB cleaning. It is rated for switching up to 3A at 250VAC, making it a robust choice for small motor control and industrial automation.

Why Choose This Part

This EL3 variant is specifically optimized for motor load durability, offering superior reliability compared to standard general-purpose relays. Its fully sealed construction allows for wave soldering and immersion cleaning, while its compact footprint helps save PCB real estate in dense control modules.

Applications

Home Appliances
Ideal for controlling fans, small pumps, and motorized actuators in white goods.
FA I/O Modules
Used as a rugged output interface for industrial programmable logic controllers.
Building Automation
Controls motorized blinds, HVAC dampers, and security gate hardware.
Lighting Control
Manages high-inrush LED lighting circuits and commercial ballast switching.

Getting Started

When integrating this relay, ensure a flyback diode is placed across the 12VDC coil pins to protect driving transistors from inductive spikes. Engineers should follow the recommended PCB footprint for through-hole mounting and ensure adequate creepage and clearance distances for the 250VAC switching side.
