12V Power Relay iRhapsody 60A Socket Mount

Description

Product Overview

The iRhapsody Relay‑S3M is a 12‑volt, five‑prong universal power relay engineered for high‑current automotive and industrial applications. With a continuous current rating of 60 A and a contact rating of 80 A, it handles demanding loads while maintaining a low coil power draw of just 1.8 W. Constructed with tinned copper contacts and an 80 Ω coil resistance, the relay meets IEC/EN 60947 standards, guaranteeing safety and durability. Its plug‑in socket mount design simplifies installation, and the automatic operation mode ensures rapid response to trigger signals. Available in 6‑relay and 12‑relay configurations, the unit is backed by a one‑year warranty from IRHAPSODY.

Usage

This relay excels in automotive replacement accessories, such as power distribution modules, lighting circuits, and motor control systems. It is equally suitable for industrial control panels, HVAC units, and marine applications where reliable switching of high currents is essential. Installers benefit from the clear wiring color code—30 VDC (red), 85‑Ground (black), 86‑Trigger (white), 87‑Output (blue), 87a‑Normally Closed (yellow)—and the robust 12 AWG/16 AWG tinned copper harness, which resists corrosion and oxidation. The socket‑mount form factor allows quick insertion into existing panels without the need for soldering, making it ideal for both professional technicians and DIY enthusiasts.

FAQ

What is the minimum voltage required to activate the relay?

The relay will trigger at a minimum of 6 V DC, ensuring reliable operation even in low‑voltage circuits.

Can the relay be used for both normally open and normally closed applications?

Yes, the device provides both NO and NC contacts, allowing flexible wiring configurations for a variety of control scenarios.

Is the relay suitable for marine environments?

Its tinned copper contacts and corrosion‑resistant housing make it well‑suited for marine and other harsh, salty environments.

How does the automatic operation mode work?

When the trigger voltage is applied to the 86 pin, the relay automatically switches the 87 output without the need for external timing circuitry.

What warranty does iRhapsody offer?

All units come with a one‑year limited warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship.
