What is BS EN IEC 61810‑4 about ? 
BS EN IEC 61810‑4 is a multi-part series of European standard which discusses about electrochemical elementary relays.
BS EN IEC 61810‑4 applies to electromechanical elementary relays with reed switches (reed contacts) incorporated into general control circuits. It defines the basic functional and safety requirements in all areas of electrical engineering or electronics.
BS EN IEC 61810‑4 defines technical deviations. It specifies type tests, routine tests, special tests and environmental tests to confirm the service conditions for applications.
Who is BS EN IEC 61810‑4 for ?
BS EN IEC 61810‑4 on electrochemical elementary relays is useful for:
- Manufacturers of reed relays
- Companies dealing with relay switch for electrochemical elementary
- Retailers and suppliers for reed relays
Why should you use BS EN IEC 61810‑4 ?
Reed relays have been used in wide fields such as household and similar appliances, security control systems for appliances, measuring instruments, medical equipment, semiconductor and chip test equipment, information and communication equipment, power distribution facilities and transit vehicles, etc.
BS EN IEC 61810‑4 provides the reed relays which is used in wide fields such as household and similar appliances, security control systems for appliances, measuring instruments, medical equipment, semiconductor and transit vehicles, etc.
BS EN IEC 61810‑4 gives you guidance on the reed switches that are used as the switching contacts of the reed relays, all the requirements for reed contacts within the reed relay, which helps in manufacturing the reed relays for electrochemical elementary relays in a precise manner.
As a user of BS EN IEC 61810‑4, you will be able to specify general and safety requirements for reed relays, which ensures the component safety for relevant systems.
What’s changed since the last update ?
BS EN IEC 61810‑4:2020 supersedes BS EN IEC 61810‑4:2020, which is withdrawn. BS EN IEC 61810‑4:2020 has re-dated normative references with respect to BS EN IEC 61810‑4:2020.
