• Latching power relay with DPDT double-pole, double-throw contacts, plus
  • quick-connect or screw terminals
  • flyback voltage protection, and
  • printed circuit board for convenient mounting.
• May be used with model railroad 'snap' switches for position feedback, signal lights or routing frog power.
• Latching feature ensures that this relay will maintain its same position when system power is turned off.

Dual coils, 12v AC or DC operation heavy duty 8 amp contacts latching relay module and schematic download the pdf     • Coils may be actuated by 10 to 15 volts AC or DC. • When actuated with DC voltage, the 'KC' (common) terminal must be connected to the positive (+) side of the power supply. • Coil resistance: 240 ohms each. • Best choice for use with low-side transistor switches, because the flyback voltage of the LARY-AC is clamped at a much lower level than the flyback voltage produced by the LARY-DC relay.

LARY-AC Example circuits 1. Add electrical contacts for signal switching to a twin-coil, 3-wire 'snap' switch machine:

12v DC single-coil latching relay DPDT contacts rated for 2 amps latching relay module and schematic download the pdf   • Coil actuated by 10 to 16 volts DC. • Reverse the coil voltage polarity to change the contact position. • Coil resistance: 1400 ohms. • On-board varistor to limit the coil flyback voltage.   • Also compatible with stall-motor switch machines. Add position feedback contacts to Switch Master, Switch Tender, Tortoise and Cobalt Classic.

LARY-DCS Example circuits Electrical contacts for signal switching or position feedback for a Kato single coil, 2-wire 'snap' switch machine: Note - for LGB and AristoCraft switch motors, use the LARY-DC relay above, not the LARY-DCS relay. Connecting LARY-DCS latching relay to a Kato track switch by modifying a Kato 24-841 turnout extension cord: • Cut the 24-841 cable • Strip all wire ends • Twist the two red wire ends together • Twist the two black wire ends together • Insert the red wire ends into relay terminal KC • Insert the black wire ends into relay terminal KB

LARY-DCS relay adds turnout contacts to a SwitchMaster or SwitchTender switch motor.

LARY-DCS relay adds more turnout contacts to a Tortoise switch motor.

For signals that have LEDs, always use a DC power source and current limiting resistors, as shown here:


Kato and Aristocraft / LGB switch machines are single coil, as shown here:
