Omron G2RV-SL500 AC230 Slim Relay and Socket 230 VAC Input Voltage Single Pole Double Throw Contacts

This Omron G2RV-SL500 AC230 electro-mechanical relay and socket (included) receives and controls electric signals in low current applications. It has a 5-pin plug-in terminal for a socket connection, DIN rail mounting, large plug-in terminals for a reliable connection, and a slim outline to save space in high volume rack and programmable logic controller (PLC) applications. This relay has single-pole, double-throw (SPDT) contacts, a load current rating of 6 amp, and an input voltage of 230 VAC. It has an LED indicator, clear case, and mechanical flag for visual operation verification. This relay is suitable for use in HVAC, appliance, and security applications.

Relay switches (also called an electrical relay or an electrical relay switch) use a small amount of power to control a larger source of power connected to electrical devices such as car motors, computers, and lighting installations. A basic relay switch has a control circuit with an electromagnetic coil and a load circuit with contacts and a lever. When current flows into the relay switch, it moves through the coil and a magnetic field is created, which causes the lever in the load circuit to move between contacts, either turning the device on or off. In a normally open (NO) relay switch, when power is supplied to the relay, the load circuit is closed and the power source connected to the relay is turned on. In a normally closed (NC) relay switch, when power is supplied to the relay, the load circuit is open and the power source connected to the relay is turned off. In other types of relay switches, non-moving parts such as transistors or semiconductors can be used as the control circuit to operate the switching mechanism. Relay switches can be controlled with an external switch, such as a light switch, or they can be connected to an autom
