New Guided Relays Offer Safe Operation

Press Release Summary:

AutomationDirect recently released Dold force guided relays. The relays aim for safe operation with mechanically linked contacts that guarantee all contacts move at the same time while preventing movement if any contact is immobilized.  The relays are available with up to 6 poles in several NO/NC combinations, having at least one of each NC or NO contact set. They also provide a vast wire cross-section at 12-24 AWG, contributing to the ability to reduce thermal load on wires. The Dold force guided relays are both UL listed and RoHS compliant.
