Description
HGFR24-2A
24V Mercury Wetted Reed Relay 2 Form A
The HGFR24-2A is a mercury wetted reed relay from SHR’s HGFR series, driven by a 24VDC coil with 2 Form A (DPST-NO) contacts. Mercury wetted contacts deliver bounce-free switching with stable low contact resistance over life, making it suitable for high-reliability switching in industrial automation, test equipment and instrumentation.
