Omron G2RV-ST500-AP 12VDC Slimline Input Relay Guide
The Omron G2RV-ST500-AP 12VDC slimline input relay is intended for compact DC control systems that require dependable low-current signal switching. It is part of Omron’s G2RV-ST Slim I/O Relay series, combining a slim relay and integrated low-profile socket in one DIN rail-mounted device.
Technical Overview
Omron lists the 12 VDC version in the G2RV-ST500-AP microload lineup with Push-In Plus terminals. The AP contact structure uses Ag alloy with Au plating, which supports more stable operation in small signal circuits. :contentReference[oaicite:6]{index=6}
For the 12 VDC coil rating, Omron specifies rated current of 27.9 mA, approximate power consumption of 300 mW, operate voltage of 80% max., release voltage of 10% min., and maximum allowable voltage of 110%. :contentReference[oaicite:7]{index=7}
The AP microload contact rating is 50 mA at 30 VAC or 50 mA at 36 VDC for resistive load. It uses SPDT contact configuration and is designed for low-level interface switching rather than direct switching of larger loads. :contentReference[oaicite:8]{index=8}
Best-Fit Applications
This model is a strong fit for 12 VDC control cabinets, sensor signal isolation, embedded machine interfaces, PLC input circuits, and compact automation assemblies. Its slim design helps keep relay banks organized, while Push-In Plus terminals reduce wiring effort during panel assembly.
