When the need to switch high DC currents exists, Finder’s extended range of 62 Series relays now includes a Magnetic Blow-Out version, capable of switching loads as high as 12 A at 220 V DC.

Targeting the heavy-duty switching of contactors and large circuit breaker trip coils this version has been specially developed to offer a high performance product that is both smaller and more competitively priced than many other current offerings.

The new relays incorporate a powerful, rare-earth magnet, neodymium, which blows-out the electrical arc and breaks DC circuits more quickly and efficiently, allowing contacts to be rated at a higher DC current, whether resistive or inductive loads.

The 62 series range is now extended by these two high performance and cost effective versions—a single pole, double break version (62.31) and a two-pole, single break (62.32) version. Available in DC coil voltages from 6 to 24 V DC, these relays are rated for -40C - +70C environments.

Cynergy3 Components have recently launched a new variant of their high voltage reed relays - these having high insulation resistance of 1x10E14 Ohms. Available in PCB mount format with either PCB connections or flying leads, there are a range of 5, 12 or 24Vdc coil versions, with either tungsten or rhodium contacts.

* 10kV or 15kV Isolation
* Low Contact Resistance
* PCB or Flying Leads Connections
* Ideal for sensitive test and measurement circuits which require low leakage current losses

Very high isolation voltages - up to 15kV - are achieved through the use of high vacuum reed switches with either rhodium or tungsten contacts which make these relays suitable for high reliability applications, such as cardiac defibrillators, test equipment and high voltage power supplies. The rhodium contact relays have low contact resistance, while the tungsten contact relays can switch higher voltages.

Typical applications for these DH-R Series relays include cardiac defibrillators, test equipment, high voltage power supplies and other high reliability equipment.

Cynergy3 Components has introduced the D200 Series high voltage reed relays which combine a high power 200W switching capacity with isolation of 7kV across the contacts.

The D200 relays come in the same package and pin-out as the popular D Series. The switching performance is achieved through the use of high vacuum reed switches with tungsten contacts. Typical D200 Series applications include test equipment, high voltage power supplies, medical equipment, or any application requiring increased safety margins on the switching power ratings.

D200 Series relays come with Normally-Open (NO) contacts. Models are available with 5V, 12V and 24V coil operation. The maximum switching voltage is 2.5kV. The contacts are capable of switching 3Adc, or carrying a maximum current of 5Adc.

Cynergy3 Components has been manufacturing high voltage reed switches and reed relays for over 40 years. All relays are assembled in the state-of-the-art facility located in Wimborne UK. Cynergy3 Components also manufactures a wide range of sensor products including Liquid Level, Liquid Flow and Pressure Sensors. All products are stocked and available through distributors worldwide.

Simon Dear, Sales & Marketing Manager at Cynergy3 Components comments: “The D Series relay has long been the favourite choice for engineers with demanding high voltage applications. The new D200 Series provides engineers with a solution for critical applications where increased power handling capability is a prime concern”.
