Relays & Sockets

Reliable components that outlive your trains

Relays for Railway

Mors Smitt offers a wide range of highly reliable relays for on-board and trackside applications.
All our relays are designed by engineers to outlive the life time of a train. 
Instantaneous Relays
No intentional time delay. Any delay that occurs is due only to the coil’s inductance as the current rises to its maximum.
Timer Relays
Combination of an electromechanical output relay and a control circuit. The contacts will open or close before or after a pre-selected, timed interval.
Latching Relays
Two-position electrically-actuated switch. It maintains either contact position indefinitely without power applied to the coil.
Monitoring Relays
Protective control devices. Functions are to receive input signals, monitor and determine them, and output an alarm signal if a set value is reached.
Sockets
Suitable for general railway applications with a space
saving design.
After Market Relays
Certified aftermarket relays offer reliable drop‑in replacements to extend service life of existing rail vehicles.
Miscellaneous
Compact plug-in diode and resistor modules for demanding rolling stock rail applications.
