QM Series Electromechanical
Relay Selection Guide

QM series relays are general purpose relays designed for a wide range of applications,
from power to sequence controls in various factory machines and control panels. They
are ideal for electric control panels requiring stable and reliable relays.

Features
• Small package design • L ED indicator on all models, so you can
easily see if relay is working properly
• DPDT has a fine silver contact with 5A without using a voltmeter
capability
•D  iode protection on some 24 VDC models
• 4PDT has a gold-plated silver contact with protects contacts and electronic
3A capability components from back EMF
• High dielectric strength (1,800 VAC) •U  L recognized, CE certified, CSA certified
• High reliability and long life (218218)
• Ultra-high sensitivity with quick response
time (20 ms max.)
• High vibration and shock resistance

• Order socket separately
