What are the key features of G5RL-1-E-AC230/240?

  • SPDT 16 A high-capacity contact rating enabling direct switching of heavy resistive and motor loads at mains voltage
  • 230/240 V AC coil with 750 mW power consumption and 47600 Ω coil resistance for direct main-voltage drive without auxiliary supplies
  • Low-profile 29 mm × 12.7 mm × 15.7 mm PCB-mount body allowing dense relay placement in compact control boards

What is G5RL-1-E-AC230/240 used for?

The G5RL-1-E-AC230/240 switches mains-voltage loads up to 16 A in home appliances such as washing machines, air conditioners, and electric heaters where a single PCB relay replaces bulkier power contactors. Its 230/240 V AC coil interfaces directly with the mains supply, eliminating the need for a separate low-voltage control power rail in heating and cooling thermostat controllers. Industrial lighting panels, HVAC fan controllers, and programmable logic controller output modules also rely on this relay for reliable high-current AC load switching.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the 16 A contact rating of the G5RL-1-E-AC230/240 handle resistive and inductive mains loads?

The G5RL-1-E-AC230/240 is rated at 16 A for resistive loads at 230/240 V AC, making it suitable for direct switching of electric heaters, lighting circuits, and similar resistive appliances. For inductive motor loads, the contact rating is typically derated — consult Omron's load curve — but the high-capacity silver alloy contacts handle inrush currents several times the steady-state 16 A value. The SPDT configuration also allows the relay to switch between two circuits, such as selecting heating or cooling in HVAC control boards.

When is it advantageous to drive the G5RL-1-E-AC230/240 coil directly from a 230 V AC mains supply rather than using a separate DC control circuit?

In appliances already powered from a 230/240 V AC mains supply, driving the 230 V AC coil directly from the line eliminates the cost and board space of a DC power supply stage for relay control. The 750 mW coil power at 47600 Ω coil resistance draws only 3 mA AC, a negligible burden on the mains circuit. This single-rail architecture simplifies thermostat and timer-based control PCBs in washing machines, ovens, and HVAC fan coil units where no low-voltage DC rail is otherwise required.

How does the G5RL-1-E-AC230/240 low-profile form factor compare to DIN-rail contactors for dense control panel assembly?

At 29 mm × 12.7 mm × 15.7 mm, the G5RL-1-E-AC230/240 occupies far less panel volume than a standard DIN-rail contactor, which typically measures 45 mm to 75 mm in height. Mounting 8 or more relays on a single PCB within a 100 mm × 100 mm area becomes feasible with the G5RL-1 low-profile body, enabling multi-zone HVAC panels and lighting controllers to integrate 16 A switching into a compact enclosure without the wiring complexity of externally mounted contactors.
