FCL Components FTR-E1-HC series automotive and power relay
FCL Components announces FTR-E1-HC series automotive and power relay

FTR-E1-HC is a lightweight, 60A 400VDC higher voltage switching relay that’s ideal for both power and automotive applications, including electric vehicles, fast charging stations, photovoltaic power generation systems, hybrid construction machinery, and battery systems.
With no specific polarity requirement for the connection of load terminals, and a low power consumption of approximately 1.2W at rated coil voltage, FTR-E1-HC eliminates the need to reduce the voltage applied to the coil to the holding voltage, avoiding the cost and space requirements of a holding voltage coil drive circuit.
The compact, single-pole PC board FTR-E1-HC relay, part of the FTR- E1 family, is also one of the smallest in the HVDC 60A class, at 60A-400V.
With a dielectric strength of 5,000VAC (1 min.) between coil and contacts, and 2,500VAC (1 minute) between contacts, the FTR-E1 offers twice the insulation properties of similar relays. Non-polarized contacts enable the FTR-E1-HC to switch between charging and discharging the load.
The FTR-E1-HC also features FCL Components' Arc Extinguishing Technologies, which use a cleverly placed permanent magnet to extend the arc’s path within the same airgap. This ensures a compact, as well as a safe, robust, and affordable solution.
