SMF3 Series

SMF3 Series

Product catalog summary
Overview: The SMF3 Series relay module by ELESTA GmbH is designed for safety applications and features a 3-pole relay with forcibly guided contacts compliant with IEC 61810-3. It is suitable for integration in safety systems according to IEC/EN 62061 and ISO/EN 13849.
Specifications: The relay module supports a maximum switching current of 10 A and a switching voltage of 250 V AC/DC. It has a power consumption range of 0.7 to 1.15 W and includes overvoltage protection. The module can be mounted on a 35 mm rail (IEC 60715) and is available with either spring or screw terminals.
Insulation and Mechanical Data: The rated insulation voltage is 250 VAC with basic and reinforced insulation options. The mechanical lifetime is at least 10 million operations, with a maximum switching frequency of 15 Hz. The module is resistant to shock and vibration, with specific ratings for NO and NC contacts.
Technical Data: The module operates within an ambient temperature range of -40 °C to +55 °C and has a thermal resistance of 60 K/W. It is rated IP20 for protection and has cULus approval.
Mounting and Connection: The relay module can be mounted in any position on a 35 mm rail. Connection options include screw terminals for wire cross-sections of 0.2 - 2.5 mm² and spring terminals for similar specifications.
Contact Data: The contact material is AgCuNi with a gold layer, supporting a rated switching power of 2,500 VA. The electrical lifetime is 100,000 operations at 0.1 Hz. The module can handle inrush currents up to 30 A for 20 ms.
Approvals and Standards: The relay module complies with various standards, including IEC 61810-1 and UL 508, with specific switching capacities for AC and DC applications.
