Discover the HM05-1A69-04 Reed Relay

In demanding electronic applications where high voltage switching and exceptional isolation are critical, the HM05-1A69-04 reed relay emerges as a superior solution. Part of the renowned HM series, this particular model is engineered to handle significant electrical loads with the precision and reliability that only hermetically sealed reed relays can offer.

Why the HM05-1A69-04 Stands Out in High-Voltage Environments

Like its HM series counterparts, the HM05-1A69-04 benefits from the fundamental advantages of reed relay technology: a hermetically sealed glass envelope protecting the contacts from environmental contamination, ensuring long-term reliability and consistent performance. However, the HM05-1A69-04 is specifically designed for environments where higher voltages are present:

• Exceptional High Voltage Switching: The standout feature of the HM05-1A69-04 is its impressive switching voltage capability of up to 10 kVDC (or peak AC). This makes it an ideal choice for high voltage test sets, cable testers, and other specialized equipment where high voltages need to be reliably routed or isolated.
• High Breakdown Voltage: With a breakdown voltage up to 15 kVDC, this relay provides robust electrical insulation, ensuring safety and preventing arcing in challenging high-voltage scenarios. This is critical for high dielectric strength applications.
• Excellent Insulation Resistance: Boasting an insulation resistance typically greater than 10^12 Ohms (1 Teraohm) between contacts and between contact and coil, the HM05-1A69-04 ensures minimal leakage current, preserving signal integrity even at high voltages.
• Single-Pole, Normally Open (1 Form A) Configuration: This common and versatile contact arrangement makes it suitable for a wide array of switching functions in high-voltage circuits.
• Compact and Robust Design: Despite its high voltage capabilities, the HM05-1A69-04 maintains a miniature footprint, allowing for efficient PCB layout in space-constrained high-voltage designs. It’s also epoxy encapsulated for added durability and protection.

Key Applications for the HM05-1A69-04 Reed Relay

The HM05-1A69-04 high voltage reed relay is indispensable in industries and applications that demand precise control and isolation of significant voltages:

• High Voltage Test and Measurement Equipment: Critical for automated test equipment (ATE), cable fault locators, insulation testers, and other instrumentation that deals with high voltage signals.
• Lääketieteelliset laitteet: Especially in applications like RF surgery equipment and advanced diagnostic tools where high voltages are present and patient safety and signal integrity are paramount. These are often referred to as medical relays.
• Industrial Control and Automation: Used in specialized industrial control systems for switching high-voltage power supplies or signals in process automation.
• Telecommunications Infrastructure: In certain specialized telecom applications requiring high voltage isolation for signal routing.
• Security Systems: Where high-voltage monitoring or switching is part of a robust security or access control system.

HM05-1A69-04 vs. HM05-1A83-04: Understanding the Difference

While both the HM05-1A69-04 and HM05-1A83-04 are excellent miniature reed relays from the HM series, a key distinction lies in their maximum switching voltage. The HM05-1A69-04 is rated for 10 kVDC switching, whereas the HM05-1A83-04 typically handles 7.5 kVDC switching. This difference makes the HM05-1A69-04 the preferred choice when your application specifically requires that extra margin in high-voltage handling. Always consult the datasheet for precise specifications.
