Are they available in 24 volt versions, and does anyone have a good source for same? I actually need a couple to operate fan motors with light-duty sensor switches; 10-15 amp capacity would be sufficient. Any alternative recommendations? Thanks, Bob Pastusek [Bob, the following is taken from a posting on the LML way back in December of '98. I'd suggest that you call Brandon Products direct and ask their sales org whether they have the Bosch units with 24v coils. Hope this helps. >>I used the Bosch relays to control the hydraulic power pack because: 1. They were smaller and lighter, and 2. They were more reliable. (They were specifically designed to handle inductive loads, and are life-cycle rated.) <<< The manufacturer can be contacted at Robert Bosch Corp Automotive Group 2800 S. 25th Ave Broadview, IL 60153 708-865-5200 The number that he gave for Twentieth Century Marketing is no longer in service, (it was where he obtained data sheets from), but I do have a good number for a distributor in PA who will sell these things directly. They are readily available from Brandon Products 800-422-3274. The 60A units are US$13.27 each, and the 15A ones are $2.57. ]
