Sirius 3RQ1 Coupling Relays Force-Guided With Functional Safety up to Sil 3 / PL E

With the 3RQ1 coupling relays fail-safe controls can be reliably coupled. They are available in widths of 17.5 or 22.5 mm. Because the relays are force-guided in accordance with IEC 60947-5-1 (IEC 61810-3), the mechanical connection between the contacts ensures the NO and NC contacts are never closed simultaneously. This means failures to open can be reliably recognized in order to ensure maximum safety.
