IDEC Corp Launches RC Series Printed Circuit Board Relays
IDEC Corporation announced the release of its new RC Series printed circuit board (PCB) relays, with features that support industrial-grade applications. The relays come in several low-profile configurations, provide high-capacity power switching, and perform reliably in challenging environments. The company states that the RC Series replaces and upgrades the RJxV Series PCB mount relays.
RC Series relays are designed to mount directly to a PCB using through-holes and can be wave-, dip-, robotically- or hand-soldered. Their configurations provide a low-profile height of 16.5 mm or less, with high voltage and current ratings in relation to their size and weight. Plug-in relays are often used for these and other types of industrial applications instead of PCB relays, but they require a mounting socket and a much larger space footprint.
