Relay module Ropam RM5-12V-1P with 12V coil, single-pole relay

Ropam RM5-12V-1P is a compact relay module with a single-pole contact driven by a 12V coil. The module is intended for switching electrical circuits where a single changeover contact is required. It offers compact relay switching and signal isolation suitable for integration into control panels, alarm systems and automation setups that need a straightforward, low-voltage control interface.

Advantages

The module provides reliable mechanical switching with galvanic separation between control and load circuits, reducing electrical interference. Its 12V coil makes it compatible with common low-voltage control outputs used in security and automation equipment. The single-pole design simplifies wiring and conserves space in enclosure layouts while maintaining a standard relay switching behaviour for general-purpose applications.

Suitable for

• Control panels and interface modules requiring a single changeover contact
• Alarm and security systems for switching sirens, indicators or auxiliary circuits
• Automation tasks where low-voltage relay control and signal isolation are needed
• General-purpose switching of lighting, pumps or small loads within relay ratings

Key specifications

• Coil voltage: 12 V DC
• Contact configuration: single-pole changeover (SPDT) contact
• Function: mechanical relay switching with galvanic isolation between coil and contacts
• Form factor: compact module suitable for panel or enclosure mounting
• Intended use: low-voltage control and signal switching in security and automation systems

How to use

Install the relay module within the control panel or enclosure, securing it according to the mounting provisions of the panel. Connect the 12V DC control supply to the coil terminals and wire the load to the common and normally open/normally closed contact terminals according to the switching logic required. Verify correct polarity and secure terminal connections to prevent loose contacts. Test switching operation using the control output before placing the module into continuous service.

Usage recommendations

Use the module within the rated coil voltage and the contact current/voltage limits appropriate for the load. For inductive loads such as motors or solenoids, employ appropriate suppression (diodes or RC snubbers) on the coil side or across the load to reduce switching transients. Ensure mounting provides adequate ventilation and avoids exposure to moisture or corrosive atmospheres.
