A single-coil latching relay is a relay with memory, usually with a magnetic structure that provides two stable positions for the armature that holds the movable contacts. A permanent magnet provides ...

Safety is a major concern in a good many motor-driven applications. This is true in industrial applications where motion starts when power is applied and especially true when power is restored after ...

Relays usually are driven using optocouplers, which offer isolation between analog and digital grounds to ensure that switching currents in the relay coils do not affect the noise margin of the ...

Ladder logic uses switch or relay contacts to implement Boolean expressions. In years past, ladder logic was made possible with discrete relays and was sometimes termed “relay logic.” Today most ...

Solid-state relays are much smaller than corresponding single-pole relays. They are also faster, dissipate less power, and withstand a larger number of operations. And unlike electromechanical relays, ...

An experienced protection and integration engineer can help determine the best configurable relay settings to provide maximum system protection and advanced functionality. Photo courtesy: Emerson ...
