A61CS12VDC1.3R

Relay Automotive Overview

The A61CS12VDC1.3R is an automotive relay from the CIT A6 series, designed for compact applications with dimensions of 22.5x15x25.2mm. It features a SPDT (Single Pole Double Throw) contact configuration rated at 30A normally open and 20A normally closed. The coil operates at 12VDC with a resistance of 90 Ohms and current draw of 110.1mA. Maximum switching voltage is 75VDC, utilizing AgSnO2 contacts.

Relay Automotive Feature Summary

• SPDT contact arrangement providing both normally open and normally closed switching paths
• Compact physical footprint suitable for space-constrained automotive assemblies
• Micro 280 ISO compliance ensuring reliability in harsh environments

Relay Automotive Applications

• Automotive lighting circuits
• Marine electrical systems
• Agriculture machinery controls

Relay Automotive Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'R' against manufacturer documentation to confirm if it denotes a reel packaging format or a specific variant distinct from the standard A61CS12VDC1.3. Ensure compatibility with required socket types and verify RoHS3 compliance status for the exact batch before integration into final assemblies.

Relay Automotive Selection Notes

Select this model when a Single Pole Double Throw configuration is required within tight spatial limits. The 12VDC coil voltage aligns with standard automotive electrical systems. Consider the 30A NO rating for high-load switching needs while ensuring the 75VDC maximum switching voltage meets circuit requirements.

Relay Automotive Part Context

This component belongs to the CIT A6 Series automotive relays, which are certified under QS-9000 and ISO-9002 standards. The series is engineered for lawn care, marine, and agriculture applications, offering robust performance in demanding operational conditions with through-hole mounting capabilities.

Relay Automotive Replacement Considerations

The A61AS12VDC1.3 serves as a functional substitute but utilizes a SPST-NO contact form instead of SPDT. Verify that the absence of a normally closed path in the replacement does not impact circuit functionality before adoption.
