The R-TECH 616250 is an ideal solution for engineers and hobbyists designing compact electronic circuits that require reliable, low-power switching for measurement and control signals. Featuring a 5V DC coil and an SPDT configuration, it provides precision performance in a tiny footprint, making it perfect for space-constrained applications like audio-visual equipment and automation control. Note that this relay is designed specifically for small signal switching and is not intended for high-power load applications.

The relay is rated for a maximum switching current of 1A.
No, this is a through-hole mounting component and is not designed for Surface Mount Technology (SMT) processes.
No, this relay is designed for small signal measurement and control, not for mains voltage or high-power AC switching.
The sealed construction protects the internal contact surfaces from dust, moisture, and flux ingress during the wave soldering process.
Yes, R-TECH offers the RTRA series in different coil voltages, including 12VDC (616251) and 24VDC (616252) variants.
Verify the coil voltage is exactly 5V DC and check that the control signal polarity is correct.
Check for continuity between the COM and NC or NO pins when the coil is de-energized or energized, ensuring the PCB traces are not damaged.
Inspect solder joints for cold joints or bridges that may cause high resistance or shorts.
Installation requires standard through-hole soldering techniques. When mounting, ensure the relay is seated flush against the PCB to maintain structural integrity. Avoid excessive heat during the soldering process; although the unit is sealed, rapid temperature fluctuations can stress the internal components. Since the device is a mechanical component, store in a dry, static-free environment prior to use. Always verify your circuit's coil drive capability to ensure the 5V requirement is met without exceeding the coil's rated operating limits.
