IntroductIon Flyer Power PCB Relay RTX The RTX is designed to meet the requirements of IEC 60669-1, a standard characterized by high inrush currents and make/break capacities up to 16A/250VAC. Requirements for this switching capability may be found in lighting controls, home automation and security systems, energy management and similar applications. The inrush capability is achieved using an innovative dual contact system that incorporates a TE flip- flop spring and a tungsten pre-make contact set to switch inrush currents up to 320A (peak). The RTX has a newly designed bistable magnetic system. Either the one- or two-coil model provides a high level of energy efficiency. The relays actuator design has contact opening features built-in to help open possible microwelds for an extended relay life. With only 29.1x12.7x16mm, the RTX is approximately half the size of conventional solutions, offering a space-saving advantage. It is VDE approved and UL recognized and RoHS compliant. www.te.com relays.te.com APPlIcA tIonS Power PcB r elay rtX Lighting control systems Movement sensors (e.g. passive infrared sensors) Home automation applications (bus systems, remote switching) Electronic switches for fixed installations cont Act d AtA Contact arrangement: 1 form A (NO) contact Rated voltage: 250VAC Rated current: 16A Limiting making current incandescent lamps max. 20ms: 200A peak, fluorescent lamps, max 1.2ms: 320A peak Z Contact style and material: W pre-make contact and AgSnO 2 5 Mechanical endurance: >10 operations coIl d AtA Key FeAture S Magnetic system: DC, polarized, bistable Rated coil voltage / power: 3 to 48VDC / 650mW with 1 coil, 950mW with 2 coils 320A peak inrush 16A/250VAC make and break InSulA tIon d AtA capacity acc. to IEC 60669-1 Initial dielectric strength 1 pole 16A, 1 form A (NO) - between open contacts: 1250Vrms, after test with 250VAC: 500Vrms. contact - between contact and coil: 5000Vrms Innovative dual contact system Clearance creepage between contact and coil: 6/6mm Distance through solid insulation: <2mm with TE flip-flop spring Newly designed bistable magnetic otHer d AtA one or two coil sytem provides a high level of energy efficiency Ambient temperature: -40 to +70C Category of environmental protection IEC 61810: RTII flux proof Tungsten pre-make and silver Mounting and terminal type: PCB, THT tin oxide carry/break contact Dimensions 29.1x12.7x16mm lA yout And dIMenSIonS Bistable DC coil system Typical 5mm footprint PcB layout / terminal assignment Bottom view on solder pins Reinforced insulation RoHS compliant, cadmium free 16A, pinning 5mm, 1 form A (NO) contact VDE approved, UL recognized More In For MAt Ion a) Indicated contact position during or after Tyco Electronics AMP GmbH coil energization with reset voltage. a TE Connectivity Ltd. company b) or 2 coil version only TE Relay Products AMPrestr. 12-14 64625 Bensheim / Germany Phone: +49-(0)6251-133-0 Fax: +49-(0)6251-133-1600 www.te.com relays.te.com
