Veris Industries VMD1B-C24A Relay
As a field technician, you recognize that the Veris Industries VMD1B-C24A is a staple for reliable 24VAC control circuits in Building Automation Systems (BAS). This 15A SPDT Socket Relay provides a clean, blade-style relay interface designed for high-density control panels where DIN rail real estate is at a premium. Operating at a standard 24 VAC coil voltage, it provides dependable switching for HVAC control panels, industrial machinery, and lighting automation. The single-pole double-throw configuration facilitates both normally open (N.O.) and normally closed (N.C.) logic, making it a versatile general-purpose relay for sequence-of-operation requirements. When paired with compatible finger-safe sockets like the VBD1B-C, this miniature relay ensures safe maintenance and rapid troubleshooting without disturbing field wiring. Its mechanical ruggedness handles resistive loads up to 15A and pilot duty B300 applications, making it the technician’s choice for 15 amp relay replacements in critical commercial infrastructures.
Key Benefits for Technicians- High Amperage Capacity: Rated for 15A at 120/277VAC, suitable for switching motors and significant resistive loads.
- Compact Footprint: Narrow blade-style construction maximizes DIN rail space in crowded enclosures.
- Versatile Mounting: Compatible with standard sockets for simplified relay terminal access and quick plug-and-play replacement.
- Broad Application: Engineered for temperature ranges from -40 to 131°F, ensuring performance in demanding mechanical rooms.
Is the VMD1B-C24A compatible with 24VDC circuits?
No, this specific model is engineered with a 24VAC coil. Operating it with DC voltage will result in coil failure or chatter; for DC applications, verify the coil suffix in the VMD series datasheet.
What socket should I use for DIN rail installation?
The VMD1B-C24A Relay is commonly paired with the VBD1B-C socket, which supports 35mm DIN rail or side-surface mounting and includes finger-safe protection.
Can I use this relay for motor control?
Yes, it is rated for 1/3 HP at 120VAC and 3/4 HP at 277VAC, making it suitable for small fan and pump motor starters within its 15A rating.
