3G2A5-OC221

Omron's 3G2A5-OC221 is a contact output unit that delivers efficient control in industrial environments. The device supports a maximum switching capacity of 2 A at 250 VAC for resistive loads and 0.5 A for inductive loads while capable of 8 A per common or 16 A per unit at 24 VDC. This ensures compatibility with various sensor and actuator configurations.

With an operating voltage requirement of 24 VDC ±10%, the unit is designed to function effectively with an external power supply. It offers notable flexibility with its 10 mA switching capability at 5 VDC minimum. The unit features 16 output points arranged in two circuits, allowing for organized control and monitoring of multiple devices.

The response times for both ON and OFF operations are a maximum of 15 milliseconds, providing quick actuation necessary in dynamic environments. The internal current draw is capped at 100 mA at 5 VDC, ensuring efficient usage of power resources.

The lifetime of the electrical relay service is rated at 300,000 operations under resistive loads, while it withstands 100,000 operations for inductive loads. However, the mechanical relay promises even higher durability, rated at 50 million operations. The contact output unit uses the G6B-114P-FD-US-M (24 VDC) relay and has a weight of no more than 450 grams. The design incorporates replaceable relays on sockets, enhancing maintenance and adaptability.
