IDEC Electromechanical Relays

IDEC electromechanical relays are designed to provide reliable signal switching and circuit control in industrial and automation environments. These relays operate through mechanical movement, using an energized coil to generate a magnetic field that moves an armature and opens or closes electrical contacts. This proven design makes electromechanical relays well-suited for applications requiring dependable isolation, clear on/off operation, and long service life.
Available in single, double, triple, and quad pole configurations, IDEC electromechanical relays can control multiple circuits either individually or in sequence. They are widely used in control panels, machinery, and automation systems due to their high reliability, low power consumption, and consistent switching performance. Electromechanical relays are especially effective in harsh environments, as they tolerate high temperatures and are resistant to electromagnetic interference (EMI), radio frequency interference (RFI), electrical noise, and transient surges.
IDEC’s RV8 Series interface relays are engineered for industrial automation, panel building, assembly machines, PLC outputs, and controller-based applications that require higher switching capacity. These relays function as a universal interface between controllers and actuators, allowing safe and efficient switching of small to medium loads. Pre-assembled relays and sockets with screw or spring clamp terminations simplify installation and reduce wiring time in control panels.
