Functional Devices RIB013P enclosed power relay is a specialised electrical switch housed within a protective casing to control the flow of electric power. It is useful in the manufacturing, energy and telecommunication industries. It benefits tasks like machinery automation and power distribution. The encapsulation of the relay within a protective enclosure serves to safeguard it from environmental factors, ensuring reliable and safe operation. This added protection is particularly crucial in sectors where dust, moisture or other contaminants could compromise the relay's functionality. It not only enhances productivity but also extends the lifespan of connected machinery, resulting in cost savings. Furthermore, the enclosed design reduces the likelihood of accidents or mishaps, promoting a safer working environment. This power relay is also useful for controlling high-voltage appliances with low-voltage signals like exhaust fans, vacuums and motors.
Working Mechanism:
- When an electrical signal is applied to the relay's coil, it generates a magnetic field, causing a movable armature or core to move.
- This movement either closes electrical contacts, to regulate the flow of power in the connected circuit.
- As a result, it sounds the alarm.
Features:
- Functional Devices RIB013P power relay has a NEMA 1-rated enclosure to avoid accidental contacts.
- It has a response time of 20 milliseconds.
- This 3-pole RIB relay can handle temperatures ranging from -30 to 140 degrees F.
