RA889A

 Switching Relay

APPLICATION

The RA889A Switching Relay provides intermediate switching 
of line- and low-voltage devices from a line- or low-voltage 
controller and is typically applied in hydronic heating systems.

FEATURES

High load switching capability.

Troubleshooting LED.

Push-to-test button.

Replaceable transformer fuse.

Long-life DC relay drive control technology.

Relay for use with external 24 Vac or 24 Vdc supply, 
with line-voltage control, or with internal 24V 
transformer supply.

One model replaces many Honeywell models. (See 
Table 1 Replacement Cross Reference.)
