FH62NE New Energy Relay
Views: 770  Author: Fanhar Relay  Time: 2025.12.22

Fanhar made the FH62NE, a high-performance power latching relay, just for the new energy and industrial control sectors. It integrates high load capacity, intelligent safety monitoring, energy-efficient operation, and a long-life design, strictly complying with international electrical standards. It is ideal for applications with demanding requirements for electrical performance, system safety, and environmental resilience.

 


Core Design Philosophy

 

The FH62NE was designed with the following four goals in mind: "Safety, Reliability, Efficiency, and Compactness":

Safety Redundancy: Features an independent auxiliary contact set with status monitoring capability. This provides critical safety feedback for the main load circuit, fulfilling a safety monitoring function as per IEC 61810-3, especially in case of main contact welding.

Energy Efficiency Optimization: Employs a low-power latching coil design (rated power: 4.8W). After the operation, applying a reduced sustaining voltage can maintain the state, which significantly lowers long-term system energy loss and heat generation.

Environmental Ruggedness: Reliable performance in harsh outdoor and industrial environments is ensured by a fully sealed, flux-proofed construction, combined with a wide operating temperature range (-40°C to +85°C) and humidity range (5% to 85% RH).
