New Yorker Electronics introduces CIT relay and switch automotive relay series

21 January 2021

New Yorker Electronics has announced its release of the new CIT relay and switch A6 series of automotive relays. The RoHS compliant A6 series is small and lightweight and offers low coil power consumption, making it ideal for everything from household appliances to multiple automotive applications.

The CIT relay and switch A6 switching current is up to 30 A with contact arrangement choices of 1 A or 1 C. Coil voltage options are 12 V DC and 24 V DC with coil power choices of 0.9 W and 1.3 W. With PC pin Source: New Yorker ElectronicsSource: New Yorker Electronicsmounting, the A6 series is 22.5 mm x 15.0 mm x 25.2 mm with an overall weight of 21 g.

It also boasts a tested electrical life of 100K cycles with mechanical life of 10M cycles. Resistance values include its 100 m/s2 for 11 minutes shock resistance, 1.27 mm double amplitude 10 Hz to 40 Hz vibration resistance, 50 milliohms contact resistance and 100M milliohms at 500 V DC insulation resistance. With contacts constructed of a bimetal material, silver-tin oxide (AgSnO2), it maintains a dielectric strength of 500 Vrms — both coil-to-contact and contact-to-contact.

It is available as a sealed unit or with a dust cover and with standard coil suppression, diode (1N4005) dathode on “86” terminal or resistor suppression device. They enable a small current flow circuit to control and operate a higher current circuit in vehicular applications and are ideal for use in everything from buses, RVs and tractors to lawnmowers, wheelchair lifts and golf carts.
