Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the coil voltage for this Omron MY2 relay?

This specific model operates with a 24VDC coil voltage.

What does DPDT mean?

DPDT stands for Double Pole Double Throw. It means the relay has two independent sets of contacts, and each set can switch between two different circuits (normally open or normally closed).

What is the maximum switching current?

The relay is rated for a maximum switching current of 7A or 10A, depending on the specific configuration and usage conditions.

Can I use this relay with an AC power source?

No, this relay has a 24VDC coil and is designed specifically for direct current. Using an AC source will damage the relay.

How do I test the relay manually?

You can use the lockable push test button located on the front of the relay. Pressing it will manually operate the contacts. The lockable feature allows you to keep it in the test position for sustained manual operation or safety during maintenance.

What is the purpose of the coil surge absorption?

The coil surge absorption circuit protects the relay and other connected electronic components from voltage spikes (transients) that occur when the coil is de-energized.

What type of connection does this relay use?

This relay features an 8-pin plug-in design with screw terminals (steekaansluiting) for connecting wires to the socket.

Troubleshooting

Relay does not energize

Verify the 24VDC power supply is connected correctly and providing the specified voltage. Check wiring to the coil terminals for continuity.

Relay does not switch contacts

Confirm the coil is energized. Use the push test button to check if the contacts function manually. Inspect contact terminals for damage or excessive wear.

Contacts are welded or stuck

This indicates a failure due to exceeding current or voltage ratings, or arcing. The relay must be replaced.

LED indicator is not lit

Check coil voltage. The LED is typically integrated with the coil circuit; if the coil is powered and the LED is out, the relay may have an internal issue and may need replacement.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Reliable switching for critical applications
  • Dual indication provides clear status feedback
  • Integrated surge protection for coil
  • Manual test button with lockable feature for safety
  • Durable silver contact material for longevity

Cons

  • Requires a specific 24VDC power supply
  • 8-pin configuration may not be universally compatible without an appropriate socket
  • Monostable design means it requires continuous coil power to stay energized
  • Not designed for high-frequency switching applications

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the power supply matches the coil voltage (24VDC).
  2. Mount the relay onto a compatible 8-pin plug-in socket.
  3. Wire the control circuit to the coil terminals and the load circuits to the appropriate contact terminals according to the schematic diagram.
  4. Use the lockable push test button to manually verify operation before energizing the control circuit.

Compatibility:

  • This relay requires an 8-pin socket with screw terminal connections (steekaansluiting).
  • Ensure your control system provides a stable 24VDC power source for the coil.
  • Verify that the load current and voltage do not exceed the relay's maximum ratings (7A/10A, 250V AC / 220V DC).

Care:

  • Keep the relay clean and free from dust and moisture. Use a dry or slightly damp cloth for cleaning; avoid solvents.
  • Periodically check wiring connections for tightness.
  • Test the functionality using the push test button as part of routine maintenance.
