EV charging station infrastructure and the spread of efficient domestic wall boxes are more than ever decisive factors for the resounding success of electromobility. Correspondingly, the demand for compact, robust and highly performant components is high. When it comes to switching, there is good news from Panasonic Industry, as the new HE-R relay is the world’s first PCB based relay that can be used as the main switching element in 3 phase systems.
Being remarkably compact, it contributes to considerable space and cost savings. Each of the 4 NO contacts is able to switch 40A up to an ambient temperature of +85°C - also a result of the sophisticated thermal design and an unique low coil holding power. An optional NC contact as feedback contact can handle low level loads down to 10mA / 5VDC.
