An Omron Electronics product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team Aug 12, 2008

High-temperature power relays handle continuous operation at up to 105C with electrical endurance of up to 100,000 operations switching 16A at 250V AC.

Omron has expanded its popular G2RL series of power relays with a new high-temperature version for home cooking appliances and other heater control applications involving exposure to higher temperature conditions.

The new Omron G2RL-1A-E-CV is rated for use at temperatures up to 20C higher than the standard type, tolerating up to 105C as opposed to 85C for the standard component.

It also offers superior switching performance with longer electrical endurance of up to 100,000 operations switching 16A at 250V AC and 105C.

Initially released in SPST-NO open form, Omron is expecting to release the higher temperature versions in SPDT type, and also to offer normally closed (NC) versions.

Available in 24 different models, Omron's G2RL PCB relay family is ideal for ovens, washing machines, boilers and HVAC equipment.

The high-sensitivity type, G2RL-H, has a coil sensitivity of 250mW and is available with a UL 1446 Class F Coil Insulation system.

The relays conform to VDE (EN61810-1/EN60255-23) and UL508/CSA C22.2 standards and meet VDE0700 regulations for safety of household and similar electrical appliances according to VDE0110.
