What This Relay Does in a Panel
The Omron G2RV-ST700-AP AC/DC24 is a slim, SPDT relay with an integrated low-profile socket, designed for DIN-rail mounting in control panels. It switches loads up to 6 A resistive at 250 VAC or 6 A resistive at 30 VDC, making it suitable for pilot duty, signal switching, and small motor contactor coils. The 24V AC/DC coil draws only 0.3 W (0.4 VA), so it keeps the power supply budget tight — useful when you're packing a dozen relays into a compact enclosure. At 0.24 inches wide per relay-and-socket assembly, this part stacks densely on the DIN rail. That width, combined with the 3.46-inch depth and 3.54-inch height, means you can fit a lot of switching capacity in a shallow panel without crowding adjacent terminal blocks or breakers.
Contact Ratings and What They Mean for Fit
The SPDT contact form gives you one normally-open and one normally-closed set. The 6 A resistive rating at 250 VAC covers most solenoid valves, indicator lamps, and PLC output modules. For inductive loads like small contactors or relays, derate to 2.5 A at 250 VAC. On the DC side, the 6 A resistive at 30 VDC handles typical 24 VDC control circuits; the 2 A at 30 VDC rating applies for inductive DC loads. These numbers are the practical limits for continuous duty — don't push past them in a 40 °C cabinet.
Integration Notes for the Wireman
Screw terminals on the integrated socket accept solid or stranded wire — strip length is standard for 5 mm pitch blocks. The DIN-rail clip snaps onto 35 mm rail; no separate socket base to order. The 0.24-inch width per position means you can plan your rail layout without surprises: 40 relays fit in a 10-inch span.
