Reduce connection errors on circuit boards that control machine guards and other safety devices. Also known as force-guided contact relays, they have contact pairs that won’t close at the same time, even if contacts stick or weld shut. These relays take up less space on a board than those with electrical wiring because their solder pin terminals mount directly through circuit board holes. Use them to control high-power components, such as fans and heaters, from a low-power circuit.
