Relays are crucial components in any automation and power management system, such as in automation switchgear for production lines. They offer reliable and efficient control of load and control signals, which can significantly reduce power consumption and operational costs. By utilizing DELCON relays, which are equipped with innovative pulse transformer technology, companies can greatly enhance the reliability and durability of their equipment. This also reduces maintenance needs and, over the long term, the costs associated with downtime and repairs. The absence of mechanical elements in these relays substantially extends their lifetime.

Don't spend on second best - use DELCON relays
DELCON relays are designed using pulse transmission technology for outstanding performance and reliability. This technology is fundamentally different from traditional optocoupler relays and offers a number of decisive advantages.
Pulse transmission DELCON uses pulse transformers to transmit the signal from the primary side to the secondary side, providing up to 4600 VAC galvanic isolation between the control and field sides. This type of isolation is important to prevent any possible electromagnetic interference or overvoltage effects that can occur in large industrial sectors.
High energy transfer efficiency: unlike optocoupler relays, where energy is drawn from the load circuit, DELCON relays' pulse transformer technology allows the use of high-quality output components that do not require additional amplification.
Low current leakage and no minimum load requirement: DELCON relays are able to operate without minimum load, which is essential in many applications where traditional relays would not work effectively. This is particularly important in situations where loads can be variable or uncertain.
High electrical robustness and reliability: these relays are designed to have very high electrical and mechanical viability, even under severe operating conditions, thanks to built-in protection circuits such as varistors and diodes.
DELCON relays are designed to operate under very demanding conditions, offering high fault and temperature tolerance. Their high isolation capacity and ability to protect against electromagnetic interference mean that they are particularly suitable for use in switchboards and automation cabinets, as well as in industries such as energy, transportation, and manufacturing.
These technical features make DELCON relays superior to other relays on the market - they are highly reliable and reduce operating costs in the long term, which is vital for any company looking for efficiency and continuity in their automation and power management processes.

Electrical life does not depend on the number of cycles. The MTTF value indicates the calculated lifetime based on the components in the relay. Delcon provides a 10-year warranty for this relay, guaranteeing a minimum lifetime of 10 years. Therefore, to prevent production stoppages, the relay should be replaced every 10 years. |
