Schneider Electric 8501CDO-5AK Control Relay 24 VDC

Schneider Electric’s Square D 8501CDO-5AK is a 24 VDC coil, Type C open‑frame power relay offering 1 Form C (SPDT) contact arrangement, designed to switch a control load from a compact, rugged package. The 8501C family delivers robust operation for industrial panels, with a high current potential up to 40 A and a motor‑load rating suitable for single‑phase motors, heaters, pumps, and conveyors when paired with appropriate voltages. This model is UL‑listed, CSA certified, and CE marked, RoHS compliant, aligning with common industrial control standards. The 24 VDC coil makes it well suited for DC control circuits and PLC outputs, providing reliable energization from standard logic levels. As with other 8501C relays, the 8501CDO variants are valued for their open‑frame construction, enabling straightforward mounting and wiring in control cabinets. For exact electrical characteristics, terminal layout, and confirmation of the specific 1NO/1NC configuration of the 8501CDO‑5AK, refer to Schneider Electric’s 8501 Type C catalog data and the 8501CDO product data sheet to ensure it meets your voltage, current, and application requirements.
