Panasonic's HES relays are designed to meet the comprehensive requirements of different markets (solar inverters, charging stations, elevator systems, motor control, white goods, etc.) in one switching solution.
Two switch contacts are integrated in the compact device, with power levels up to 35 A / 277V AC. In addition, feedback (auxiliary) contacts can be implemented to indicate welding of the main contacts. A holding power of only 170mW can provide corresponding energy savings, especially for monostable systems.
In addition, a "guaranteed" contact gap of at least 3 mm is required as a reliable isolation distance in many applications. The large contact gap of at least 3mm and the fast-opening contacts make it possible to reliably handle high DC loads up to 220V / 10A.
Another feature is the parallel arrangement of the coil terminals and the load terminals, which simplifies the connection process of the current path on the circuit board. This way, higher isolation distance requirements can be met without additional effort. The company says that HES relays can therefore be used cost-effectively to control many applications.
