TE Connectivity is a global leader in connectivity and sensor solutions, offering a wide range of products designed to meet the needs of industries spanning automotive, aerospace, telecommunications, and industrial automation. Among the most critical components in these applications are relays, which provide vital switching and control functions. TE Connectivity relays are known for their versatility, reliability, and performance in various settings, making them an essential choice for engineers and designers worldwide.
What are Relays? A relay is an electrically operated switch that uses an electromagnet to open or close a set of contacts. This allows a small electrical signal to control a larger electrical load. In essence, relays provide a way to control high-power circuits with low-power signals. There are two main types of relays: electromechanical relays (EMRs) and solid-state relays (SSRs). TE Connectivity offers both types, with each serving different purposes depending on the application. TE Connectivity’s Electromechanical Relays (EMR) TE Connectivity’s electromechanical relays are widely used in environments that require both high current and high voltage handling. These relays work by employing a mechanical armature, which is activated by an electromagnet when an electric current passes through the coil. The armature moves to either open or close the contacts, depending on the relay’s design. EMRs are ideal for automotive applications, industrial machinery, and large-scale communication systems due to their durability and reliability.
