The CAD50AED: Rated for utilisation categories AC-15, AC-14, and DC-13 per EN/IEC 60947-5-1. AC-15 covers solenoid valve and contactor coil loads — the inductive inrush that burns up a general-purpose relay. AC-14 is for electromagnetic devices with lower inrush. DC-13 handles DC solenoids and clutches. If your control circuit is switching contactor coils or DC actuators, this relay is rated for that specific duty, not just a generic resistive load.
Snap-in terminals mean the relay clips directly onto a DIN rail — no screws, no tools for the base mount. Front-face IP2X per VDE 0106 keeps accidental finger contact out of the live terminals. The 45 mm width and 107 mm height fit standard control-panel pitch; depth is 93 mm, so watch the clearance to the enclosure door or backplane if you're packing rows tight. Altitude rated to 3000 m without derating. TH protective treatment per IEC 60068 covers tropical humidity environments — no extra conformal coating needed for most panel installations.
Compliant with EN/IEC 60947-5-1, UL 60947-5-1, CSA C22.2 No 60947-5-1, GB/T 14048.5, and JIS C8201-5-1. That covers the major industrial control standards for Europe, North America, China, and Japan. No separate UL/CSA listing numbers to chase — the relay carries the standard approvals for panel builders shipping globally.
Mechanical robustness
Rated for 10 Gn shocks for 11 ms with the relay open, 15 Gn closed. Vibration resistance is 2 Gn from 5 to 300 Hz open, 4 Gn closed. This is a relay that stays latched on a conveyor line or pump skid — not a panel-mount-only device that drops out under vibration.
