EP1 Series Data

Features

The EP1 is available with a high temperature option (125° C ambient), or as a quiet type.

The NEC EP1 series relay is a PC-Mount, high density, single 1 Form C (SPDT) relay, which is essentially half of the EP2. Like the EP2, it is intended for automotive loads up to 25A.

Flux tight housing
Low profile
Two types of contact by carrying current capacity (Standard type: 25 A maximum, high current type: 30 A maximum)
