Spade-Terminal Relays
Using a low-current signal, these relays are often used to control small motors and heaters. These relays attach to quick-disconnect terminals.
Surface mount relays, also known as power relays, have a slot on the flange for mounting them to flat surfaces.
Relay-socket mount relays, also known as ice cube relays, offer three ways to connect. Plug them into a socket (sold separately), connect them with quick-disconnect terminals, or solder wires directly to the terminals.
Relay-socket/surface mount relays can plug into a socket or mount to a flat surface.
Relay sockets mount directly on 35 mm DIN rail (also known as DIN 3 rail) for fast installation. They can also mount to a flat surface.

Compact Spade-Terminal Relays






Fit these relays where standard spade-terminal relays are too big. You can connect them three ways. Plug them into a socket (sold separately), connect them with quick-disconnect terminals, or solder wires directly to the terminals. An LED indicator shows you the status of the relay, so you know it’s connected and wired correctly.
Relays that control 2 or more circuits have a lockable test button, so you can test their function. When you press the button, the relay switches contacts. Use this button when checking a relay for proper function before installing it, or when investigating issues with wired relays.
Relay sockets mount directly on 35 mm DIN rail (also known as DIN 3 rail) for fast installation. You can also mount them to a flat surface using screws.

DIN-Rail Mount Solid State Relays


Unlike mechanical relays, these solid state relays have no moving parts, so they require less maintenance and last longer, switch faster, and are quieter. They mount on 35 mm DIN rail (also known as DIN 3) for fast installation. An LED indicator lights up when these relays are connected, so you can quickly confirm that they’re wired correctly. IP20 rated, their terminals are recessed, so they prevent fingers and other objects from touching live circuits.
Relays with an integrated heat sink disperse heat to increase the relay’s current rating.

Infrequent-Cycle Relays


For use with equipment that cycles on and off, these relays meet UL 508 for air conditioning and heating. Connections are accessible from the front, so you can mount relays side-by-side. Also known as definite-purpose contactors.
Also Available: Auxiliary contacts for 3.8"-7.2" Ht. relays. They allow you to add a signaling device or control another relay. Please select 6564K99, then select the McMaster-Carr part number of your relay and whether you want to switch one circuit on (1 Normally Open) or off (1 Normally Closed).
