J-Works has start shipping the JSB2431 series of DPST reed relay modules controlled over the USB. The DPST relay outputs provide host control between two poles of a common line and normally open reed relay connection points. The relays are rated at 0.5A @ 120VAC and 0.5 @ 100VDC with a contact material of rhodium. The contacts of the reed relay are a magnetic material eliminating the need for a armature to open and close the contacts. They are sealed so the contacts are protected from corrosion. The lack of moving armature enhances the life of the relay by reducing mechanical wear. Wire connection to the relays are made with on-board screw type terminals.

The user communicates with the module from any programming or test language that supports USB communications as shown in provided sample applications. This small form factor low cost module replaces internal pc based plug-in cards in various test, control, monitor and measurement applications.
