Distribution boxes simplify field connections
Multiport distribution boxes simplify the applied wiring of sensor actuators, enabling multiple connections in an area with just one connection going back to the controller.
These include fans, water heaters and other small electric appliances.
Suitable for switching 5A loads at European 250V AC mains voltage levels, the G5NB-E carries VDE, UL and CSA approval.
Highly efficient, it features a low power coil that draws just 200mW, to save power supply size and cost, and has tracking resistance that exceeds CTI250.
The relay does not contain lead or cadmium, and will meet the upcoming European environmental standards.
Offered in SPST-NO form, the G5NB-E is available in PCB mounting form, and is sealed against flux contamination during assembly.
Voltages for the control coil are 5, 12, 18 or 24V DC.
The relay can handle up to 1250VA at 90W, and has an electrical life of 100,000 operations at mains voltage. Request a free brochure from Omron Electronics ...
