Panasonic Introduces the NEW HF 1 Form A High Capacity PhotoMOS Relays Product Line

April 19th, 2021

The latest addition to the Panasonic PhotoMOS® Relay family, the NEW HF 1 Form A High Capacity PhotoMOS Relays are 1200V High Capacity PhotoMOS Relays and offer a suitable substitution for replacing reed and mercury Relays. Additionally, the NEW HF 1 Form A High Capacity PhotoMOS Relays offer high load switching for both industrial and test equipment environments.

PhotoMOS Relays can sometimes be used in applications where traditional Electromechanical Relays are already being used. Replacing a standard Electromechanical Relay with PhotoMOS can provide additional benefits such as longer life cycle, better resistance to shock and vibration, low On-resistance and a theoretically infinite life cycle. This makes PhotoMOS Relays a very good solution for Battery Monitoring Systems, Test & Measurement, Electrical Power and Industrial markets. Some common applications for Panasonic PhotoMOS Relays would be in the measurement market, security equipment, fire prevention systems and industrial machines.
