| The PhidgetInterfaceKit
0/0/8 provides Small Signal Relays with 8 Relay Outputs, rated at 250VAC,
or 2 Amps, for a maximum of 65 Watts. It is typically used for switching
small signals, as opposed to high current applications. For high current
applications see 1014 PhidgetInterfaceKit 0/0/4.
The relays are Single Pole Double Throw (SPDT).
Maximum DC Switching Voltage: 220VDC
Maximum DC Switching Current: 2 Amps
Maximum AC Switching Voltage: 250VAC
Maximum AC Switching Current: 2 Amps
Note: When a relay is in one switch position for a period
of time, oxidation of the open contact(s) can occur. Depending upon
the internal coating material of the contacts, oxide films of varying
density will be displaced upon the surface of open contacts; this film
acts as an insulator to current flow. When the relay is switched, a
certain amount of current flowing through the contacts, known as the
wetting current, is required to remove the film of oxides and ensure
proper conduction. The wetting current required to operate this relay
is low enough for use in signal switching applications.
Comes packaged with a 180cm USB Cable, a Getting Started
Manual, a mounting hardware kit, and a sheet of labels.
