Steinecker Elektronik has developed a new series of DIL-SIL and SMD relays which include several improvements. These new moulded relays complement its existing range and are additionally compatible with automatic insertion equipment.
The use of special reed ampoules ensures a higher than normal switching voltage than is required for usual commercial use. Further benefits are the available options, which include an integrated blocking diode and/or an incorporated electrostatic shield, which has the effect of a magnetic screen and achieves full screening and concentration of the magnetic field. This prevents the influence of stray fields on the reed contacts and allows these relays to be mounted near strong magnetic fields and adjacent to each other, avoiding problems in higher packaging densities.
A variety of termination variations are available to satisfy particular customer requirements. One and two-pole (normally-open/normally-closed), and one-pole (change-over) rhodium or mercury-wetted contact versions are available which guarantee constant initial contact resistance over the entire life of the relays.
SMD versions are available with the usual J and gull-wing termination. Laser-welded connections and thermoresistive materials ensure problem-free use in all - reflow solder bath and infrared - soldering processes.
A further range of sealed and moulded relays to solve clients' specific requirements is available from the company.
