The 1-Way 24V Electromagnetic Relay Module is a compact, high-reliability switching board designed for industrial control systems, PLCs, and automation equipment that operate on 24V DC logic. It features optocoupler isolation between the control signal and the relay coil, ensuring that your sensitive 24V control circuits are protected from voltage spikes and electrical noise generated by the relay and connected loads. The module uses a low-level trigger design, meaning the relay activates when the input signal is pulled LOW (0V).

At the heart of the module is a high-quality electromagnetic relay capable of switching AC or DC loads up to 10A at 250V AC or 10A at 30V DC. This makes it suitable for controlling lamps, motors, solenoids, heaters, valves, and other industrial devices directly from a 24V logic signal. The relay provides Normally Open (NO) , Normally Closed (NC) , and Common (COM) contacts for flexible wiring configurations.

The optocoupler isolation is a critical safety feature for industrial applications. It creates a galvanic barrier between the control side (your PLC or 24V control system) and the load side (the relay and connected equipment). This protects your control electronics from back-EMF, voltage transients, and ground loops that can occur when switching inductive loads such as motors, solenoids, and contactors.

The 24V coil voltage makes this module specifically suited for industrial control systems where 24V DC is the standard control voltage. This includes PLC systems, industrial automation equipment, building management systems, and process control installations. The 24V version provides reliable operation with lower current draw than 5V or 12V versions, reducing power supply requirements in large control panels.

The module features screw terminals for secure connection of the load wiring, and pin headers for easy connection to your PLC or control system. LED indicators provide visual feedback: a power LED and a relay status LED that lights up when the relay is activated. The compact PCB design with mounting holes makes it easy to integrate into control panels, DIN rails, and equipment enclosures.

The module is widely used in PLC control systems, industrial automation, building management, process control, CNC machines, robotic systems, and any application where a 24V logic signal needs to control a higher-power load. It is also popular in educational projects for teaching industrial relay control and optocoupler isolation principles.

Important Note: The relay is rated for 10A at 250V AC or 30V DC. For inductive loads such as motors and solenoids, it is recommended to keep the load current below 60–70% of the rated value for reliable operation. Always ensure proper isolation and safety precautions when working with mains voltage or industrial equipment.

Whether you are building a PLC control panel, automating an industrial process, or adding relay control to a 24V system, the 1-Way 24V Electromagnetic Relay Module provides a reliable, isolated solution. It is suitable for individual engineers, system integrators, and businesses purchasing in bulk for industrial deployments.

Usage

Getting Started

  1. Connect power — Supply 24V DC to the VCC pin and GND to ground. The power LED should light up.

  2. Connect the control signal — Connect your PLC output or 24V control signal to the IN pin. The module uses low-level trigger — the relay activates when the IN pin is pulled LOW (0V).

  3. Connect the load — Wire your device to the relay‘s NO/NC/COM terminals. Use the screw terminals for secure connections.

  4. Test the circuit — Set the control pin LOW to activate the relay, and HIGH to deactivate. The relay status LED should indicate the current state.

Q: What is the 1-Way 24V Relay Module used for?

It is a single-channel relay board for controlling AC or DC loads from a 24V logic signal, with optocoupler isolation for safe industrial operation.

Q: What is the relay rating?

The relay is rated for 10A at 250V AC or 10A at 30V DC.

Q: What is the difference between the 24V version and 5V/12V versions?

The 24V version is designed for industrial PLC and automation systems that use 24V DC control voltage. The 5V and 12V versions are for lower-voltage logic systems.

Q: What does “low level trigger” mean?

It means the relay activates when the input signal is pulled LOW (0V) . When the input is HIGH (24V), the relay is deactivated.

Q: What is optocoupler isolation?

Optocoupler isolation creates a galvanic barrier between the control side and the load side, protecting your PLC or control system from voltage spikes and electrical noise.

Q: Can I use this module with a 12V PLC?

No. This module requires 24V DC for the coil and control side. For 12V systems, use the 12V version.

Q: What are the NO, NC, and COM terminals?

NO (Normally Open) : contacts are open by default and close when the relay activates. NC (Normally Closed) : contacts are closed by default and open when the relay activates. COM (Common) : the common terminal for both NO and NC.

Q: Does the module have LED indicators?

Yes. There is a power LED and a relay status LED that indicates whether the relay is activated.

Q: How do I connect the load?

Use the screw terminals to connect your load to the NO or NC contacts and COM. Ensure proper isolation and safety precautions when working with mains voltage or industrial equipment.

Q: Can I purchase in bulk for an industrial project?

Yes. This relay module is suitable for both individual users and business purchasing, including industrial control panels, automation systems, and system integration.
