SIM4 Series

SIM4 Series

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document provides technical specifications for the SIM4 Series relays by ELESTA GmbH, highlighting features, dimensions, coil data, insulation data, mechanical data, and contact data.
Features: The SIM4 Series relays have forcibly guided contacts compliant with IEC 61810-3, suitable for print mounting, and offer protective separation. They are available in configurations SIM312 (2 NO + 1 NC) and SIM222 (2 NO + 2 NC).
Dimensions: Pin dimensions are specified as 1.0 x 0.3 mm and 1.0 x 0.4 mm, with a recommended PCB drilling diameter of 1.3 mm.
Coil Data: At 20°C, the nominal power is 1.0 W, with a holding power of 0.29 W. The coil limit temperature is 120°C. Various nominal voltages are provided, ranging from 5.0 VDC to 110.0 VDC, with corresponding pick-up and drop-out voltages, currents, and resistances.
Insulation Data: The rated insulation voltage is 250 VAC, with basic and reinforced insulation specifications including air and creepage distances and test voltages. The insulation resistance is at least 100 MΩ.
Mechanical Data: The relay has a mechanical lifetime of at least 10 million operations, a maximum switching frequency of 15 Hz, and specific response and drop-out times. It is resistant to shock and vibration, with a weight of approximately 25 g.
Other Data: The operating temperature range is -40°C to +70°C, with a thermal resistance of 50 K/W. The protection class is RT II, and the relay is approved by cULus and TÜV, with a flammability class of UL 94 V-0.
Contact Data: Contacts are made of AgSnO2 with a gold layer, capable of switching up to 2,000 VA. The electrical lifetime is 100,000 operations at specified conditions, with a maximum inrush current of 20 A for 20 ms.
Approvals and Options: The relays are approved by cULus and TÜV, with options for mounting rail and PCB sockets. Other coil designs are possible.
