RQ Series 

**E** - 

## **RQ Series — General Purpose Relays** ~~Lo~~ 

**IDEC’s RQ relays are low-profile, PCB relays that provide quality within a compact package. Size equals value. RQ relays are small, yet maintain high contact ratings and long operational life. For larger power needs, a 16A model is also available.** 

**Key features of the RQ series include:** 

- **Low profile: 29 x 12.7 x 15 mm** 

- **Contact rating: 8A (DPDT) and 12A (SPDT)** 

- **Power relay model with 16A contact rating (SPDT)** 

- **Operational life: 100K cycles at full resistive load 10 million cycles, no load** 

- **LED/Diode Plug-in modules available with DIN rail socket** 

**• Lead-free**
