What 30 A (10 ms) inrush on a 3 A relay actually means at switch-on
The Omron G3RV-SL700-D DC24 is a slim solid state relay from the G3RV line, 6.2 mm wide, built to switch a continuous DC load between 25 mA and 3 A at a rated 24-48 VDC (maximum applicable load voltage 60 VDC) — driven from a 4-30 VDC control input with a built-in operation indicator (cites:,). The headline rating that drives the fit call is the 30 A (10 ms) inrush figure on a relay whose continuous load envelope tops out at 3 A — that 10:1 surge headroom is what lets it cold-switch capacitive DC loads (indicator lamps, long cable runs, downstream filter capacitance) without the output stage folding on the first edge (cites:,).
Mature lifecycle — what it means when you spec it into a new BOM
Lifecycle is recorded as mature (cites:), which on Omron's SSR lines typically means the part continues to ship but is no longer the lead growth SKU — for new panel designs that signals the G3RV-SL700-D DC24 is a safe, documented choice rather than a risk of premature EOL, while still being worth checking the official G3RV family roadmap for any newer slim-footprint DC SSR the manufacturer may now list as preferred (cites:,). Sourcing posture for a mature Omron SSR: quoted to order through independent distribution against the BOM quantity, with current availability and pricing confirmed at RFQ — no live stock claim, no factory-direct impersonation, and no deferral to a manual lookup (cites:).
Hooking it up — control side, indicator, and the 6.2 mm DIN-rail story
On the input side the G3RV-SL700-D DC24 accepts 4-30 VDC across the coil terminals, so a single 24 VDC PLC output or sensor signal drives it directly without an interposing relay — the integrated operation indicator gives the cabinet builder a visual confirmation at power-up that the input has actually picked up (cites:,). The 6.2 mm width is the reason this G3RV variant gets pulled into high-density control panels and slim marshalling racks where a standard 22.5 mm SSR would crowd the DIN rail — confirm the mating socket / PCB terminal pattern from the G3RV datasheet before committing the BOM line, since the slim footprint is the feature the buyer is paying for (cites:).
