The SCHRACK RT1 power PCB relay from Tyco uses a bifurcated (twin) contact system and is specifically designed for switching from dry circuit up to 16A, including arc-less switching.

Designed to offer improved low contact switching and high reliability, target applications include domestic appliances and heating control.

The single pole devices are rated at 12A or 16A and feature a 1 C/O or 1 N/O contact. RT1 Bifurcated relays utilise a sensitive DC-coil with 200 or 400 mW power consumption (12 / 16 A version) and a 5 kV / 10 mm coil-contact with reinforced insulation. Operating temperature range is -40 up to +85 degrees Celsius.

Environmentally friendly, the RT1 Bifurcated power PCB relays are RoHS-compliant, meeting all the latest requirements for lead and cadmium free components.
