Schneider Electric 8501RS42V20 Miniature Relay Dpdt 10A

Product Description

The SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC 8501RS42V20 is a miniature general-purpose relay designed for AC operation in industrial control and power switching applications. Part of the Harmony 8501R series, it features a DPDT contact configuration rated at 10 amps and 240 VAC at 50/60 Hz or 30 VDC. The coil operates on 120 VAC at 50/60 Hz. Contacts are Silver Tin Oxide construction, suitable for reliable switching across a range of load types. The plug-in socket mount design allows for fast field replacement without rewiring. Licensed electricians and industrial control technicians are the primary installers of this relay type.

This relay is suited for use in material handling, process control, lighting control, HVAC/R systems, and other general-purpose industrial applications. The short-stroke armature design supports high-speed operation and extended mechanical life, making it a dependable output device in logic control circuits and power switching panels. Its approvals under UL, CSA, and CE make it appropriate for use in a wide range of North American and international installations.
