Where is electromagnetic relay used?
Electromechanical Relays are widely used in machine tool control, industrial assembly lines, and commercial equipment. They are easily available from relay manufacturing companies. One of the main reasons why relays are much popular is because they can control a large amount of output.
What is electromagnetic induction relay?
Induction relay is a type of electromagnetic relay, that works on the principle of electromagnetic induction and it resembles a split-phase induction motor. The operating force developed will be due to the interactions of fluxes displaced in time and space in the rotor (movable element).
Are relays AC or DC?
General Purpose Relays are electromechanical switches, usually operated by a magnetic coil. General purpose relays operate with AC or DC current, at common voltages such as 12V, 24V, 48V, 120V and 230V, and they can control currents ranging from 2A-30A.
What are the types of electromagnetic relay?
Depending upon working principle these can be divided into following types of electromagnetic relays.
- Attracted Armature type relay,
- Induction Disc type relay,
- Induction Cup type relay,
- Balanced Beam type relay,
- Moving coil type relay,
- Polarized Moving Iron type relay.
What are the two main parts of an electromagnetic relay?
Ideally when we look at an electromagnetic relay; we find an energizing coil called the primary circuit. A primary circuit has two key parts; one is movable and is loaded with a spring. This part is called armature while the other part that remain fixed is called yoke.
What is the difference between an electromechanical and a solid state relay?
The major difference between a solid state relay and a mechanical relay is the contact moving. Solid state relay switches signals, currents, or voltages electronically by the operation of these electronic circuits. A mechanical relay has contacts and uses electromagnetic force to mechanically switch the contacts.
What is 12v DC relay?
The LY2 12VDC is a 2-pole Bi-power Relay with DC coil, LY series. DPDT contact configuration, standard classification, plug-in/solder terminals. Equipped with an arc barrier for arc interruption. Withstand voltage up to 2000V.
