Omron G2R-2-SNI 240VAC (S) Relay Socket for Industrial Switching

The Omron G2R-2-SNI 240VAC (S) relay socket is a plug-in electromechanical relay intended for control and switching applications where a 240 VAC coil is required. It is part of the Omron G2RS family and is designed for practical use in industrial panels.

Technical Overview

This relay features a DPDT contact configuration, a 5 A rated carry current, LED indication, mechanical indication, a test button, and a transparent case. The plug-in design allows the relay to be installed into a compatible socket, making maintenance and replacement more efficient.

The 240 VAC coil version is useful in installations where higher AC control voltage is already present. This can be common in industrial machines, building systems, pump controls, and panel applications that use AC control architecture.

Functional Benefits

One of the strongest benefits of this relay is service visibility. The LED indicator shows coil status, while the mechanical indicator provides an additional physical confirmation. In real-world maintenance, this dual indication helps reduce uncertainty during fault finding.

Installation Considerations

Because this is a plug-in relay, it should be used with a compatible socket and installed according to panel wiring standards. Correct coil voltage selection is essential. A 240 VAC relay should only be used in circuits designed for that control voltage.
