The
adaptable RU series are available in either 2 pole (DPDT) or 4
pole (4DPDT) models. Both RU2 and RU4 models have multiple
standard features, including a non-polarized green indicator
LED, a mechanical indicator flag, an easily accessible and
replaceable marking plate, and a manual latching lever, coded
orange/red for AC coil and green/blue for DC coil.
What
sets the RU relays apart from other relays is the unique
internal construction. There is no internal wiring, which
means no weak solder points and a completely lead-free
manufacturing process. The contacts are cadmium-free as well,
making the RU relays environmentally-friendly. All RU relays
are also manufactured by a totally automated assembly process
which means the relay is of the highest quality because the
possibility of human error has been eliminated during the
manufacturing process.
IDEC
has developed an innovative and simple method of identifying
the RU series of relays. Several different colored marking
plates are now available that can be used to replace the
standard marking plate found on the top of the RU relay.
These
marking plates are available in yellow (standard color),
green, orange, blue or white. In addition, the marking plates
can be further identified by using either a pencil or pen to
write directly on them. You can, in effect, create your own
customized label that is actually part of the relay. The
marking plates are located on the top of the relay rather than
on the socket.
In
addition, IDEC has developed the RU relay with low signal
switching bifurcated contacts. The RU42S model has a maximum
contact rating of 3 amps 250V AC while maintaining a minimum
switching load of 100 µA 1V DC, allowing you to use this
relay for all your dry circuit switching needs.
