Product Description
Contact form: Form A SPST mechanical relay. Normal position: Open. Contact rating VA: 10. Maximum switching voltage: VDC 100, VAC 130. Maximum switching current A: 0.5. The G4ODC5R is a reed relay, low-contact-resistance DC output. It is a single-pole, single-throw, normally open mechanical relay (Form A, SPST-NO). It was designed for a low-voltage DC load that is purely resistive (no inrush current). Typical applications for these modules include analog signal and communication line multiplexing. Because of their low 10 VA rating, these modules are not recommended for inductive or capacitive loads (even very small loads) because the inrush current is likely to exceed the 10 VA rating. IMPORTANT: Applications using 120 VAC are typically NOT suited to this module. If you are considering using this module for any application other than low-voltage purely resistive loads, see the detailed notes and rating curve in the data sheet, and call Pre-sales Engineering for specific guidance. If you need a Factory Mutual approved version of this module, see the G4ODC5RFM. NOTE: The application of the dry contact module must not exceed 10 VA under steady-state or momentary in-rush condiÂtions. For voltages at or below 20 volts, the current limit is 0.5 amps. For voltages above 20 volts, the maximum allowable current is deterÂmined by the following equation: Maximum Current = 10 VA / Voltage.. Opto 22. Opto 22. G4ODC5R.
