Series 104HT suits a wide range of applications including EVs, solar, HV instrumentation IC testers and more.
CLACTON-ON-SEA, England–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Pickering Electronics, a renowned company for its remarkable advancements in reed relay miniaturization and superior performance over the past 50 years, today launched a new high temperature high voltage single-in-line reed relay that can operate at up to 125°C. The new Series 104HT relay belongs to a family of miniature high voltage reed relays and is available in the SIL package on a 6.35mm (0.25in) pitch, with a stand-off voltage capability of up to 4kV.
“High temperature can significantly affect the performance of reed relays, and many devices are only able to operate at up to 85°C. By designing these devices with increased magnetic drive and using specialist potting materials to sustain insulation resistance, Pickering can now offer reed relays that perform at elevated temperatures, and which can be stored at up to 150ºC,” said Kevin Mallett, Technical Specialist at Pickering Electronics.
The Pickering Series 104 reed relays feature internal mu-metal screening, effectively countering any magnetic interference. As an added option, electrostatic shielding is also available. These versatile relays come in a range of configurations, including 1 Form A, 2 Form A & 1 Form B, and can be fitted with coils of either 5, 12 or 24V, with optional internal diode protection.
