SKAN R46171 Control Relay

SKAN R46171 Control Relay is a general-purpose relay designed for industrial control panels. It is specified with a 115 VAC coil and an 11-pin configuration. A control relay like this is used to energize and de-energize its contacts in response to a control signal, enabling a low-power control circuit to switch a higher-power load or to drive indicators and signaling devices. The 11-pin configuration indicates a multi-pin package commonly used in plug-in relay bases, facilitating replacement and integration with standard SKAN relay racks in automation systems. The SKAN brand suggests compatibility with a wide range of AB control-system components and era-specific panel designs, providing familiarity for technicians and straightforward wiring within established AB layouts. Typical applications include control panels in manufacturing, packaging lines, conveyors, and other automation scenarios where line-voltage control signaling is used.
