1. High-voltage, high-current control
capable
400V DC high-voltage switching and
1,000V DC cut-off has been achieved
thanks to a sealed construction with
mixed hydrogen gas and the magnetic
arc motion through use of a permanent
magnet.
2. Compact & Low Operating Sound
By using a capsule contact mechanism
that is enclosed with hydrogen gas, highcapacity cutoff is possible even with a tiny
contact gap. There is little operating
sound, which does not change even
when large currents are cut off.
3. Arc space unnecessary
The enclosure box can be made smaller
thanks to an arc-space-free construction
from which the arc will not get out.
4. Safety
Since the contacts are enclosed in a
sealed capsule structure, the arc will not
get out, which ensures safety.
5. High contact reliability
The contact part is hermetically sealed
with H2 mixed gas, hence the contact
resistance remains stable regardless of
the ambient conditions.
6. Mounting direction is not specified
The weight of the movable parts is light,
and also the restoring force is large,
hence the relay is relatively unaffected by
gravity.
7. Wide selection of models available.
Types include PC board type (10A), TM
type (10A and 20A), and connector type
(80A and 300A).
8. Standard compliance
The 10A, 80A type is UL/C-UL standard
certified.
TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
1. Solar power generation systems
2. Cogeneration systems
3. Construction machinery
4. Welding equipment
5. Battery charge and discharge
control
6. AGV (Automatic guided vehicle)
(Unmanned transport carts)
7. Inverter control
8. Elevator, etc.
