‘Relay’ detailed information on relays
| “Electrical Relays: Principles and Applications” claims to be the first illustrated encyclopedia of relays. |
Types of relays include ordinary electromagnetic, reed switch, solid-state, thermal and high-voltage devices as well as current, frequency, differential, distance and microprocessor-based relays. If you need descriptions of each, principles of operation, and applications for all basic types, consider the “the first illustrated encyclopedia of electrical relays,” according to the publisher, “ Electrical Relays: Principles and Applications ,” by V. Gurevich, a CRC Press Book (Taylor & Francis Group), 2005, hard cover, 671 pages, $149.
Also offered is historical background on designs, principles of operation of relay components (vacuum, gas discharge, and semiconductor devices), more than 1,200 illustrations, “easy-to-understand language, without mathematical treatment,” publisher says.
Recent Control Engineering coverage on relays includes:
Overall vibration modules reduce unplanned downtime
Safety logic advances with relay, PLC
