Omron G2RV-ST501 24VDC Slimline Relay

The Omron G2RV-ST501 24VDC slimline relay is a narrow industrial interface relay developed for modern control panels. It includes a 24 VDC coil, SPDT contact form, 6 A rated carry current, Push-In Plus terminal structure, LED indication, mechanical indicator, transparent case, DIN rail mounting, and test switch.

Technical Details

This relay uses silver alloy contacts and is intended for standard switching duties in automation panels. Its 24 VDC coil makes it especially suitable for PLC-based control systems, where 24 VDC is a common control voltage. The SPDT configuration allows one changeover function, giving designers flexibility in control logic.

Why It Matters in Panel Design

Panel space is expensive, and slim relays help improve component density. The G2RV-ST501 24VDC supports cleaner layouts, easier wire routing, and faster maintenance access. The test switch is useful for validating circuits during setup, while the LED and mechanical indicator provide immediate status visibility.

Typical Use Cases

This model is suitable for machinery automation, control cabinets, PLC output isolation, auxiliary switching, signal routing, conveyor control, and factory automation equipment. Its 6 A rating makes it more appropriate for general interface switching than microload-only relay versions.
