NAVINEX AC RELAY SUPPLIER IN AHMEDABAD 12V AC relay is an electromechanical switch that uses a 12-volt alternating current (AC) signal to control the opening and closing of its electrical contacts. This allows a low-power AC signal to control a much higher-power AC circuit, providing isolation and safety. Key features and specifications Coil Voltage: The control coil operates at 12V AC. Contact Configuration: Available in different arrangements like SPST (Single Pole, Single Throw), SPDT (Single Pole, Double Throw), DPDT (Double Pole, Double Throw), etc., depending on the switching needs. Contact Rating: Crucially defines the maximum voltage and current the relay's contacts can safely switch. Typical values might be 10A at 250VAC or 30VDC. Insulation: Provides electrical isolation between the control circuit and the load circuit, protecting sensitive control electronics from high-voltage spikes. How it works When a 12V AC signal is applied to the relay's coil, it creates an electromagnetic field. This field attracts an armature, which in turn moves the relay's contacts. Depending on the contact configuration (NO or NC), this movement either closes or opens the circuit, allowing or interrupting the flow of power to the connected device. Common applications 12V AC relays find use in various applications including: Industrial Automation: Controlling motors, pumps, and other machinery. HVAC Systems: Managing fans, compressors, and electric valves. Lighting Control: Enabling automated switching and dimming functions, especially in smart lighting systems. Power System Protection: Controlling circuit breakers and ensuring overload protection in power distribution systems. Home Automation and DIY projects: Controlling appliances, lights, and other devices with low-power signals from microcontrollers like Arduino and Raspberry Pi. Advantages High Power Handling: Capable of switching high current loads. Electrical Isolation: Provides isolation between control and load circuits, enhancing safety. Versatility: Adaptable to various voltage and current levels and suitable for diverse switching functions. Reliability and Durability: Designed for stable operation in various conditions. Cost-Effectiveness: Generally less expensive than solid-state relays or PLCs, particularly for high current applications. Easy Maintenance: Simple structure facilitates maintenance and replacement. Where to buy (Mumbai, India) Several retailers and distributors in Mumbai offer 12V AC relays, including: VISHA WORLD : Electronic Components in Mumbai New Silikon Electronics Rajguru Electronics (I) Private Limited Bombay Electronics Anuj Enterprises Additionally, online marketplaces such as IndiaMART and Amazon.in provide a variety of options. Note: When selecting a 12V AC relay, it is important to choose one with appropriate contact ratings and configuration for your specific application's voltage, current, and load type. Also consider if you need a plug-in, PCB mount, or panel mount form factor.
