Relay gives impressive performance for
its size
With a width of just 5mm the slim-line PA relay now switches an impressive 5A @ 250VAC (previously 3A @ 250VAC)
In the continual pursuit of product enhancement, Matsushita Electric Works has recently improved the specification of one of its key electromechanical relay components With a width of just 5mm the slim-line PA relay now switches an impressive 5A @ 250VAC (previously 3A @ 250VAC)

New plug-in relay for power switching
The new HJ plug-in relay from Matsushita Electric Works provides a cost-effective solution for a broad spectrum of power-switching applications.
This is exceptional for such a narrow device.
These improvements allow greater design flexibility and an even wider range of power switching applications to be considered.
The updated relay retains all the other characteristics of previous PA types.
For instance, measuring just 5 x 12.5 x 20mm (w x h x l) the PA's high packing density permits relays to be mounted within 1mm of each other without crossover problems.
Other salient features of these relays, which have a single in line (SIL) terminal layout, include a wide switching capacity with control from 100mA, a high surge voltage of 4000V, great sensitivity and shock and vibration resistance.
