Omron G2RV-SR500-AP 200VAC Relay Socket Details

The Omron G2RV-SR500-AP 200VAC relay socket is a slim electromechanical I/O relay for industrial control systems using 200VAC input circuits. It is part of Omron’s G2RV-SR family, known for compact DIN rail installation, Push-In Plus terminals, transparent relay housing, and practical signal indication.

Technical Characteristics

This model has a 200VAC rated input voltage. Its rated current is approximately 6.6 mA at 50 Hz and 7.6 mA at 60 Hz, with power consumption around 1.7 VA. The AP version is designed for micro-load switching, with gold-plated contact material and an SPDT contact arrangement.

Industrial Use Cases

The Omron G2RV-SR500-AP 200VAC relay socket is relevant in automation panels where 200VAC control voltage is used for interface switching. It can be applied in machine control circuits, signal separation, PLC-related relay banks, alarm logic, and low-current auxiliary switching. Its compact format is especially helpful when many interface relays must be installed side by side.

Why Panel Designers Use It

In modern panels, available space is often limited. A 6.2 mm slim relay allows engineers to increase relay density without making the cabinet unnecessarily large. The Push-In Plus terminal system also supports repeatable wiring quality, while the LED indication helps identify active circuits quickly during maintenance.

FAQ

What is the rated input voltage of the Omron G2RV-SR500-AP 200VAC relay socket?

It is designed for 200VAC input control circuits.

Is it a power relay?

No. Although it is electromechanical, the AP version is focused on micro-load signal switching rather than high-current load control.

Why is gold plating important?

Gold-plated contacts help maintain reliable conductivity in low-current applications where oxidation or unstable contact behavior can be a concern.

Can it be used in multi-relay banks?

Yes. Its slim body and Push-In Plus terminals make it suitable for grouped relay installations in control cabinets.
