Switches, Relays & Keypads
American Zettler's AZ8463 Series relay has a DPDT contact arrangement in a DIL layout. Features include the option of single-side stable or latching single coil, heavy-duty bifurcated contacts and RoHS compliance.
The low power consumption (79 mW pickup) and latching option make the AZ8463 a prime choice for battery-powered applications. The AZ8463 has a surge withstand voltage up to 2500 V a.c. and a high contact capacity of 2 A at 30 V d.c. Stable contact resistance makes it well suited for lower level signal switching.
It is epoxy-sealed for automatic wave soldering and cleaning.
