In the world of industrial automation, efficiency, reliability, and space optimization are non-negotiable. Enter the Omron G2RV-SR500, a slim, plug-in electromechanical I/O relay designed to streamline control panel designs while delivering robust performance. Whether you’re managing a factory floor, a building automation system, or a renewable energy setup, this relay is engineered to meet modern demands. 

Key Features of the Omron G2RV-SR500

1. Ultra-Compact Design for Space-Saving Installations

The G2RV-SR500 stands out with its slim profile, occupying 25% less space than conventional relays. Measuring just 6.2mm in width, it fits seamlessly into crowded control panels, enabling higher-density installations without compromising accessibility. Its DIN rail mounting compatibility further simplifies integration into existing systems.

2. Versatile Voltage Options for Global Applications

This relay is available in multiple voltage variants to suit diverse environments:

• AC110V: Ideal for regions with 88–121V AC power systems.
• DC24V: Perfect for low-voltage DC applications, such as solar farms or battery-powered systems.
• Other variants: Supports up to AC230V and DC48V, catering to industrial standards worldwide.

3. High Current Rating with Reliable Contact Performance

Despite its compact size, the G2RV-SR500 handles 6A at 250V AC/30V DC, making it suitable for both resistive and inductive loads. Its SPDT (1C/O) contact configuration provides flexibility for switching between two circuits, ensuring reliable operation even in demanding conditions.

4. Push-In Plus Terminal Blocks for Faster Wiring

Traditional screw terminals can be time-consuming and prone to errors. The G2RV-SR500 features Push-In Plus terminal blocks, reducing wiring time by up to 60%. Simply insert stripped wires into the terminals—no tools required—for a secure, vibration-resistant connection. This innovation minimizes downtime during installation and maintenance.

5. Robust Construction for Industrial Environments

Built to withstand harsh conditions, the G2RV-SR500 includes:

• Foreign object intrusion prevention: A protective cover shields terminals from dust and debris.
• Malfunction prevention stopper: Prevents accidental relay removal during operation.
• High-temperature resistance: Operates reliably in temperatures ranging from -25°C to 70°C.

Applications of the Omron G2RV-SR500

1. Factory Automation

In manufacturing plants, the G2RV-SR500 controls motors, solenoids, and sensors with precision. Its compact size allows for dense control panel layouts, while its high current rating ensures compatibility with heavy-duty machinery.
