Product Description
Gigavac GH5 3.5kV SPDT HV Relay
Gigavac GH5 SPDT High Voltage Relay - 3.5kV / 8A
The Gigavac GH5 is an ultra-compact, vacuum-sealed Single Pole Double Throw (SPDT) high-voltage relay, specifically engineered for high-speed switching and precision isolation in space-constrained electronic assemblies. Designed to handle peak voltages up to 3.5kV and a continuous carry current of 8 Amps, the GH5 is distinguished by its lightning-fast 6ms operate and release times. Its hermetically sealed vacuum dielectric provides stable performance over a remarkable mechanical life of 2 million cycles. This makes the GH5 an ideal choice for RF communication, medical diagnostic equipment, and high-density test systems where speed and long-term reliability are non-negotiable.
