The Phoenix Contact REL-MR-12DC/21 operates at a nominal input voltage of 12 V DC and supports a wide input range from 7.2 V DC to 33 V DC. This 12VDC Input Voltage Relay offers a durable mechanical service life of 2 × 10⁷ cycles and features a single changeover contact using AgSnO material. It handles up to 6 A continuous current and a maximum switching voltage of 250 V AC/DC. Identified by Part No: 2961150, this relay ensures stable and safe operation in demanding automation applications.
With a low input current of 14 mA and a fast response time of 2.5 ms, it suits time-critical control logic and compact systems. The plug/solder connection simplifies wiring and replacement, while its 5 mm width is ideal for dense panel layouts. Built to meet IEC 60664 standards and protected by RT III, the relay performs reliably in environments ranging from -40 °C to +85 °C. The 140 W interrupting capacity at 24 V DC supports control of both resistive and inductive loads.
The REL-MR-12DC/21 is widely used in PLC I/O extensions, relay output modules, machine signal routing, and low-voltage automation logic. It provides dependable switching without taking up unnecessary panel space, making it a smart fit for modern industrial systems where precision, durability, and compactness are priorities.
