Q Magnetic Memory Type HC Latching HC Relay Datasheet

Category: Electronics, Panasonic, Relays

Overview

The datasheet provides detailed information on the Q Magnetic Memory Type HC Latching HC Relay (also referenced as “Keep Relay”) designed by Panasonic. As an energy-saving component, it is suitable for a wide range of applications in control circuits for both industrial equipment and consumer devices.

Key Features

Energy efficiency, making it suitable for environmentally conscious applications.
Uniform form factor to the standard HC relays, ensuring compatibility.
Incorporation of an operation indicator for monitoring purposes.
Flexibility for use across various applications due to design versatility.
Compliance with the RoHS directive, emphasizing reduction in hazardous substances.
Introduction of Cadmium-free contacts to diminish environmental impact.

Types and Part Numbers

The relay is available in both a plug-in and a PC board type, with multiple part numbers corresponding to various voltage specifications ranging from 6V to 100V in both AC and DC coils. Standard packaging for the relays include 20 pieces per carton and 200 pieces per case, with notes indicating variability in materials and prices.

Rating and Coil Data

Coil data for AC coils is provided with details on the nominal operating voltage, nominal current, contact arrangement, set and reset voltage, and inductance for both set and reset coils across several voltage ratings (6V, 12V, 24V, 48V, and 100V AC). The datasheet specifies the nominal operating power, max allowable voltage, and inductance values for both the N.C. and N.O. conditions of the set and reset coils, all measured at a standard ambient temperature of 50°C (122°F).

Environmental & Compliance Information

Significant emphasis is made on environmental compliance with the HoHS directive and the exclusion of Cadmium in the contacts. Product part numbers should be updated to indicate the cadmium-free type, and thorough evaluation in actual application settings is advised due to the dependence of relay life on contact material and associated load.

Ordering Information

Buyers and engineers are encouraged to inquire for additional details regarding material specifications and pricing variations. Moreover, compliance information with international standards can be found through a referenced standards chart.
