MRX Series Reed Relay

The MRX Series is a rugged, intrinsically safe reed relay designed for hazardous environments requiring galvanic isolation between intrinsic and non-intrinsic safety circuits. Certified under ATEX (KIWA 19ATEX0051 U) and IECEx (KIWA 19.0026U) standards, the MRX Series is approved for use in Zone 0 gas and vaporous atmospheres, making it ideal for mining, chemical processing, and industrial automation.

Engineered for reliability in extreme conditions, the MRX Series operates across a wide temperature range of –40°C to +85°C, and supports peak voltages up to 375 VDC with power ratings up to 50 W. It is available in multiple contact configurations including SPST-NO (1A), SPDT (1C), DPST-NO (2A), DPDT (2C), and 4PST-NO (4A). Through-hole mounting ensures secure integration, while optional diode protection and high-isolation variants enhance safety and performance.
