Description

Brentek G-Series G-8AMP High-current Dry Output Modules provide direct control of power loads, such as motors, contactors, solenoids, and lights. They are directly compatible with industry-standard I/O mounting racks from Brentek OPTO 22, Grayhill, Gordos, Crouzet and others. High reliability relays, 4000 VAC input/output isolation, encapsulated circuitry, and a full-Industrial -40 to +85 deg. C temperature rating make this series ideal for robust industrial control applications.

The versatile 8 Amp rated Dry Contact output has zero OFF-state leakage current, low ON-state resistance, and high power factor (2000 VA) inductive load switching.  The latest models now feature a 10 Amp switching inrush current.  Using Dry Output Modules can eliminate the need for integrating separate AC and DC module types. This series offers both FORM 1A (N.O.) and FORM 1B (N.C.) types which can be used to pre-configure select I/O points for default power-down states, yielding a fail-SAFE I/O point. Standard models are normally open. 

Models are available with 5, 12, 15, or 24 VDC supply voltages:

  • G-8AMP5
  • G-8AMP12
  • G-8AMP15
  • G-8AMP24

The input is active-low and may be controlled by open-collector logic. TTL and CMOS outputs can control 5 Volt models directly.  Operation is logically indentical to industry-standard SSR output modules.  Optionally, PLC Sinking/Sourcing logic can control the module. 

The Brentek G-8AMP5 Dry Contact Relay is available from Amazon.  

The G-8AMP24 Dry Contact Output Module is available on Amazon in packages of 1, 3, and 5 pieces.  Also, the G-8AMP24-S4 4-pin configuration is available on Amazon.
