Working principle
This relay operates based on the principle of electromagnetic induction. When the rated working voltage is applied to both ends of the coil, a current is generated inside the coil, which in turn forms a magnetic field that magnetizes the iron core and generates attraction. This suction overcomes the reaction force of the contact spring, attracting the moving contact to the stationary contact and achieving circuit conduction. When the coil loses power, the magnetic field disappears, the iron core loses magnetism, the contact spring pulls the moving contact back to its initial position, and the circuit is disconnected. Through this electromagnetic conversion mechanism, relays achieve on/off control of circuits and accurately execute various control commands.

Precautions
Installation environment: It should be installed in a dry, well ventilated place without severe vibration and impact. The ambient temperature and humidity should comply with the product’s specified range to prevent environmental factors from affecting the performance and service life of the relay. For example, high ambient temperature may cause the coil to overheat and reduce insulation performance; Excessive humidity may cause contact corrosion.
Wiring specifications: Strictly follow the product manual for wiring operations to ensure that the wiring is firm and correct. Avoid excessive contact resistance caused by loose wiring, which can lead to heating and even fire hazards; At the same time, attention should be paid to distinguishing the wiring terminals with different functions to prevent misconnection from causing relay misoperation or damage.
Load matching: Based on the actual load type (resistive, inductive, capacitive, etc.) and size, choose the appropriate relay model to ensure that the contact capacity can meet the load requirements. For inductive loads, due to the generation of back electromotive force at the moment of switching, it may cause damage to the relay contacts. If necessary, surge suppression circuits should be added.
