788-516 WAGO Signal Relays

Wago 788-516 is a plug-in relay assembly featuring push-in CAGE CLAMP spring connections for efficient setup. It operates with a rated current of 8A continuously, with specific ratings for AC and DC applications including 3A at 250Vac (AC-15), 2A at 24Vdc (DC-13), and a 15A AC inrush maximum current for brief 4-second intervals. The relay is designed with a socket base, incorporates a red LED for status indication, and follows an electromechanical design principle. It supports a 12V / 10mA recommended minimum switching load and offers 2C/O / DPDT (Double Pole Double Throw) contact configuration. The relay is built to withstand ambient air temperatures ranging from -40°C to +70°C for storage, with a degree of protection rated at IP20. It is suitable for control voltages and rated voltages in AC within the -40°C to +70°C range, adhering to a communication protocol marked as 'C'. The rated impulse voltage stands at 4 kV, and it is designed for 2-pole mounting on a DIN-35 rail. The power consumption is noted for 207-253Vac (230Vac nominal), with a power factor of 0.9...1.1 x Uc. The relay's dimensions are H86mm x W15mm x D54mm, fitting within a 15mm width space. Contacts are made from Silver-Nickel (AgNi 90/10) for durability, and the rated operating voltage (Ue) supports up to 250 V. The relay's performance is highlighted by its operational life, capable of 10 000 operations phase-to-neutral and 30 000 000 operations overall, with a trip current rating that ensures reliable switching.
