Monitoring and control relays

Electromagnetic control relay

 

Electromagnetic monitoring and control relays are devices that monitor changes in a certain quantity and send electrical pulses and signals to take appropriate action when certain conditions occur.

 

Relays as automation tools

 

Electromagnetic control and monitoring relays can be used independently as protection or as part of an automated system in combination with other types of electrical devices. They are an important component in assembly lines, industrial automation, and for controlling environmental parameters when certain conditions are required for a process.

 

How Electrical Control Relays Work

 

A control relay is an electrical component that opens or closes a switch to allow current to flow through a conducting coil, without the coil coming into direct contact with the switch. Control relays are electromagnetic devices that typically control the flow of power in circuits.

 

Control relays were invented over a century ago, and today's world of electronics depends on control relays to control many electrical and electronic devices. Control relays are electronic components used in motors, power plants, power supply systems, transistors and many others.

 

Mounting

 

Electromagnetic relays are mostly designed for DIN rail or panel mounting, while others are suitable for panel mounting.

 

Application

 

Monitoring and control relays are suitable for controlling lighting, electric motors, as well as for monitoring operating parameters in real time. They can control various electrical devices, as well as start or stop motors, other control relays or other systems depending on input conditions or environmental parameters.

 

They are also extremely suitable as part of protecting systems from excessive load, short circuit, high current or other conditions that can cause an accident, a problem in electrical systems, fire, as well as damage to equipment.
