Only weeks after launch, newly designed relays are among the fastest growing c3controls product lines
Following nearly three years of development and another 10 months of comprehensive objective user testing to ensure endurance and performance, the new Series 200/210 general purpose relays from c3controls take a significant step forward in design and functionality.
Unlike the Series GR relays which they are replacing, the new Series 200/210 relays available without a 25% tariff which will provide substantial cost savings.
The new edition general purpose relays from c3controls are ideally suited for control circuit applications where the current is under 10 amps and a long life is desirable. Generally, these relays are best applied as dry contacts and interposing contacts in control circuits to provide isolation or control for devices that need to be turned off and on remotely.
“Arguably the most important application for these relays is to use one voltage source to actuate device coils such as a contactor coil controlling power from a different voltage source,” said Neil Buzzard, global product marketing manager at c3controls. “In this case, for example, the relay would be used for a control circuit voltage of 24VDC to operate a contactor controlling a power circuit at 240VAC.”
Series 200/210 relays from c3controls meet standards requirements from UL, CSA and IEC, which make them suitable for global applications.
The new relays are available with either an Octal Base with pin terminals or a Square Base with blade-style terminals, and the Series 210 Octal Base relays are interchangeable with other commonly available relays.
The relays are available in a wide range of specifications, many of which are in stock and ready for same-day shipping. Their silver and nickel (AgNi) contacts are also cadmium-free and environmentally friendly.
“These relays are extremely versatile,” Buzzard said. “They can be used in a large number of applications, markets and industries – like original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) that build equipment such as ice machines, manufacturing equipment, and even household appliances,” he added. “HVAC control panel builders, and transmission and distribution switchgear manufacturers would also find these relays a welcome upgrade.”
Every c3controls product is backed by a limited lifetime warranty. “Our warranty is unmatched in the industry,” said Ted Wodoslawsky, chief marketing officer for c3controls. “And when you purchase from c3controls, you’re buying directly from the manufacturer and avoiding middleman markups.” Wodoslawsky says that any order for standard catalog items received by 6 p.m. ET is guaranteed to ship same-day.
“The new Series 200/210 relays will save panel space, save on inventory management and have a wide range of coil voltages and optional features that will meet almost any application’” Buzzard adds. “They are already among our fastest growing product lines.”
As the company transitions to this new and improved series, manufacturing of c3controls Series GR relays up to 12A is now discontinued. Orders for these relays will be fulfilled only while current stock lasts.
