Ensure Secure & Reliable Connections for Your Plug-in Relays

Elevate the reliability and streamline the wiring of your control systems with our Universal General Purpose Relay Base. Designed for seamless integration, this versatile base provides a secure, organized, and easily maintainable connection point for your standard plug-in general-purpose relays, making it an indispensable component for industrial automation, HVAC, lighting control, and a multitude of other applications.

Key Features & Benefits:

• Wide Compatibility: Engineered to accept most standard plug-in general-purpose relays, including common 8-pin DPDT and 14-pin 4PDT models (e.g., MY2, LY2, MK2P, MY4, JQX-13F series and their equivalents).
• Versatile Mounting Options: Offers dual mounting flexibility:
  • 35mm DIN Rail Mount: For quick, tool-free installation and removal in standard electrical enclosures.
  • Panel Mount: Features integrated screw holes for secure direct mounting to panels or chassis.
• Secure Screw Terminals: Equipped with robust screw-type terminals that ensure reliable, vibration-resistant electrical connections for solid or stranded wires. Clearly marked terminals simplify wiring and reduce installation errors.
• High-Quality Construction: Manufactured from durable, flame-retardant industrial-grade thermoplastic (e.g., PA66 or PC/ABS) for long-lasting performance and enhanced safety in demanding environments.
• Effortless Relay Replacement: Facilitates quick and tool-free replacement of plug-in relays, minimizing downtime for maintenance and troubleshooting.
• Integrated Finger-Safe Protection: Terminal design helps prevent accidental contact with live parts, enhancing operator safety during installation and operation.
• Provision for Accessories: Includes slots for compatible relay retention clips (essential for vibration resistance) and often provides dedicated connection points for optional LED indicator modules or diode suppressors for enhanced diagnostics and protection.
• Organized Wiring: The compact design and logical terminal layout contribute to a neat and professional wiring setup within your control panel.
