The Series 62-1-B-12/1 is a chassis-mounted high voltage reed relay with a Form B (energize to break) configuration, rated for 10kV stand-off and 7.5kV switching at up to 50 Watts. It features a 12V coil with a resistance of 150 Ω, operate time of 3 ms, and release time of 2 ms. Tungsten-plated contacts support a maximum current of 3 A. The relay has an insulation resistance of at least 10¹² Ω and a typical capacitance of 3 pF across the open switch. The coil is polarity sensitive, with a red spot indicating the positive connection. It is fully encapsulated, operates within a temperature range of -20 to +85 °C, and complies with vibration and shock ratings of 20 G and 50 G respectively. Mounting must be at least 25 mm from ferrous surfaces or other relays to avoid magnetic interference.
The Series 62 and 63 ranges of high voltage reed relays feature push-on terminals and are supplied complete with the appropriate connectors and insulating boots.
They are available for up to 15kV stand-off, 12.5kV switching at 50 Watts maximum. Tungsten plated contacts ensure a long and reliable life.
Both Form A (energize to make) and Form B (energize to break) configurations are available and it is usually possible to achieve a Form C (change-over) function by using a Form A and a Form B type together.
These relays feature an internal mu-metal magnetic screen which permits the Form A (energize to make) versions to be mouted side by side. Special versions can be manufactured with an electrostatic screen and/or earth connection to the magnetic screen. This can often be useful where EMC problems are encountered, please contact our technical sales office.
Form B types are magnetically biased and should not be mounted directly onto ferrous metal chassis or less than 1 inch (25mm) away from other relays as the coil operating voltage characteristics will be altered due to magnetic interaction. The coils of Form B relays are polarity sensitive, the positive connection is identified by a red spot.
5, 12, and 24 volt coils are available as standard other voltages can be supplied to special order.
