Gigavac has developed 10 new latching high-voltage relays that are completely sealed and rated from 8 kV to 70 kV.
Gigavac latching relays consume power only when initial coil voltage is applied - which saves energy; the new models ensure the relay will remain in the last position, even during power outages.
In response to customer requests, the company re-engineered 10 popular models to handle latching requirements - the Gigavac G12L (8 kV) and G13L (15 kV) latching relays are double-pole, double-throw, which make them ideal for reversing polarity or selecting between power sources or loads. The G2L, G8L, G15L, G60L, G61L, G62L, G64L and G71L latching models are single-pole, double-throw relays, rated from 15 kV to 70 kV using vacuum or SF6 as the dielectric. Vacuum is preferred for radio frequencies and for 'make' or 'break' applications. SF6 gas is best for capacitive 'make' applications or where stable leakage current is needed for long periods of non-operation.
