Operator Interfaces, Switches & Relays
Gigavac, a specialist in high voltage relays, is offering its G71 sealed single pole 70 kV relay. Filled with SF6 gas for low leakage and high current capacitive discharge switching, the G71 is safe in nearly any environment and can perform where others fail. 51 mm tall and 50 mm in diameter, with insulated flying high voltage leads, the relay is not affected by humidity or dust and can operate from -50 to +85°C.
The relay is available in normally open (form A), normally closed (form B), and double throw (form C) configurations with 310, 910, 183 mm - or custom-length high voltage flying leads that make connection easy. Coil voltages are 12 V d.c. 26,5 V d.c. 115 V d.c. - or customised.
