Eaton D3RR2A – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What coil voltages does the Eaton D3R ice cube relay come in?
Two control-circuit voltages are offered: 120VAC on model D3RF2A, and 24VDC on models D3RF2T, D3RF2T1 and D3RR2A. Match the coil to whatever your control transformer or DC supply actually puts out; the coil voltage is the one thing that is not interchangeable between these models.
2) Is a 10A relay enough for a small motor or solenoid?
The D3R carries a 10A contact rating, which covers control circuits, indicator loads, and small motor or solenoid loads. For anything drawing more than that, or for a motor with a high inrush, drive a contactor or motor starter with this relay rather than switching the load directly through the contacts.
3) Can I use the D3R as a like-for-like replacement in an existing relay panel?
That is one of the stated uses for it: relay panel retrofits and like-for-like replacements. Before you order, confirm three things about the relay coming out - that the base is octal, that the contacts are DPDT, and that the coil voltage matches (120VAC or 24VDC here). If all three line up, the D3R goes back into the same socket.
4) Can this Eaton relay switch two separate circuits at once?
Yes, it is a DPDT relay, so one coil signal operates two independent sets of changeover contacts. Each pole gives you a normally open and a normally closed path, which is what you want when one command has to make one circuit and break another at the same time, or when you need a spare set of contacts for a pilot light or PLC input.
5) Is the Eaton D3R relay UL Listed for a commercial control panel?
Yes, the D3R Series is UL Listed, which is what an inspector or a spec-driven facility buyer will be looking for on a control panel or panelboard installation. That listing is the one certification stated for this relay.
6) Which D3R model do I order for a 24VDC PLC output?
Any of the three 24VDC models - D3RF2T, D3RF2T1 or D3RR2A - takes a 24VDC coil signal. If you are standardizing a facility on one spare part, pick one of those model numbers and stock it, rather than mixing them across panels.
7) How much panel space does the Eaton D3R relay take up?
Each relay sits in a 1.75 in wide by 1.75 in high by 3 in long/deep envelope. Allow for the socket and DIN rail on top of that when you lay out a crowded control cabinet, and leave room above for pulling the relay straight out of the base.
