Product General Introduction
Core Technical Advantages
- RCM industrial relays: Complete contact specifications of 2CO / 3CO / 4CO; equipped with manual test button for offline maintenance inspection. AgNi contacts resist electrical wear for long service life.
- Multiple coil voltage options cover mainstream industrial control voltages 24VDC and 230VAC; plug-and-play design, compatible with corresponding SCM-I series relay sockets.
- RIM plug-in functional modules: Tool-free direct insertion into relay sockets, no wiring modification required. Integrate status LED and surge suppression to protect front-end control modules.
- Voltage range classification: DC dedicated versions adopt freewheeling diodes; AC and universal UC versions use RC absorption circuits to adapt different power supply types.
- Perfect matching combination: RIM2 fits all 2CO relay bases; RIM3 fits 3CO and 4CO relay bases, convenient for standardized cabinet spare parts management.
- All products use flame-retardant plastic housing, pass CE, UL and RoHS certifications, suitable for TS35 DIN rail installation in control cabinets.
Application Scenarios
Widely deployed in automation control cabinets, machine tools, packaging machinery, new energy equipment and water treatment systems:
- RCM relays: PLC signal electrical isolation, signal amplification, simultaneous control of multiple independent small loads such as solenoid valves, indicator lamps and auxiliary contactors.
- RIM plug-in modules: Upgrade basic relay sockets with status indication and anti-surge protection; suppress reverse electromotive force generated by inductive coils to avoid damage to PLC output points.
- Universal VUC type RIM modules are preferred for equipment with mixed AC/DC control circuits to reduce spare part types.
- Low voltage 6–24V modules for standard 24VDC automation equipment; high voltage 110/230V variants for mains AC control loops.
