G4 I/O family
The G4ODC5R5 is a reed relay, low-contact-resistance DC output. It is a single-pole, single-throw, normally closed mechanical relay (Form A, SPST-NC). It was designed for a low-voltage DC load that is purely resistive (no inrush current).
Typical applications for these modules include analog signal and communication line multiplexing. Because of their low 10 VA rating, these modules are not recommended for inductive or capacitive loads (even very small loads) because the inrush current is likely to exceed the 10 VA rating.
IMPORTANT: Applications using 120 VAC are typically NOT suited to this module. If you are considering using this module for any application other than low-voltage purely resistive loads, see the detailed notes and rating curve in the data sheet, and call Pre-sales Engineering for specific guidance.
If you need a Factory Mutual approved version of this module, see the G4ODC5R5FM.
