High insulation resistance reed relays are designed for ultra-low leakage current performance, making them ideal for precision applications where signal integrity and isolation are critical. Engineered with specialized materials, extended creepage distances, and optimized internal geometry, these relays achieve insulation resistance levels up to 100 tera-ohms (TΩ) and in some cases, even 1,000 TΩ resulting in leakage currents in the picoampere range or lower.
These relays are available in configurations that support switching voltages up to 1,000 VDC and breakdown voltages up to 4,500 VDC, with custom options reaching 10,000 VDC switching and 15,000 VDC breakdown. Their high isolation and dielectric strength make them ideal for automated test equipment (ATE), semiconductor testing, and precision measurement systems where even the smallest leakage can impact results.
Compact, reliable, and built for demanding environments, High Insulation Resistance reed relays offer unmatched performance in high-voltage, low-leakage applications.
Intrinsically safe reed relays and optocouplers are engineered for use in hazardous environments where ignition prevention is critical. Certified to ATEX standards and tested to ensure they do not become ignition sources, even in the presence of short circuits or adjacent component failures—these components are ideal for applications in explosive atmospheres such as mining, chemical processing, refineries, and power stations.
Designed to meet EN50020 safety standards, these relays and optocouplers feature tightly controlled air and creepage paths, high dielectric strength, and low-voltage coil inputs. With a maximum peak voltage of 375 V across input and output, and isolation distances up to 10 mm, they ensure safe operation under overload conditions. The Comparative Tracking Index (CTI) of the plastics used exceeds 175, and internal potting compounds provide additional insulation for long-term reliability.
