1-Channel Relay Module – 12V DC 10A (Through-Hole / TH)
Bridge the gap between your 12V control systems and high-voltage electrical appliances with the 1-Channel 12V 10A Relay Module. Precision-engineered by Muonix, this rugged module is optimized for environments operating on 12V power rails, making it the perfect choice for automotive electronics, solar charge networks, marine systems, and industrial PLC control panels.
Whether you need to toggle high-power horn circuits, custom vehicle lighting, structural heating elements, or 240V AC mains appliances, this board handles the heavy lifting safely. Built using rugged through-hole (TH) technology and assembled under strict lead-free manufacturing practices, it provides superior track conductivity, reliable power handling, and excellent structural durability.
Key Features
12V Native Optimization: Specifically engineered to trigger and operate directly off standard 12V DC power supplies, making it fully compatible with car batteries, 12V solar banks, and industrial automation control loops.
Complete Optocoupler Isolation: Equipped with an onboard high-speed optocoupler that creates a physical light barrier between your delicate input signals and the high-voltage load tracks, preventing back-EMF surges and inductive spikes from damaging your equipment.
Flexible Trigger Logic: Designed with an adjustable jumper setting that allows you to easily switch between High-Level Trigger or Low-Level Trigger logic to seamlessly match your hardware or software architecture.
Robust Through-Hole (TH) Design: Manufactured using heavy-duty through-hole components to ensure exceptionally strong mechanical mounting bonds and enhanced thermal dissipation along the copper power paths.
Onboard Status Indicator: Features a bright SMD LED providing instant visual verification whenever the relay channel is actively closed.

Lead-Free & Soldering Safety
100% Lead-Free PCB: The base circuit board is constructed from eco-friendly, lead-free materials, aligning fully with global industrial safety and environmental practices.
Factory Pre-Soldered Components: All heavy-duty terminal blocks, optocouplers, and power traces are mounted using high-grade, lead-free solder wire to ensure optimal electrical conductivity.
Enhanced Thermal Strength: The premium lead-free solder joints offer superior resistance against crystallization and structural drying, even when cycling heavy 10A electrical loads over extended periods.
🛡️ Compliance Note: Fully RoHS Compliant & Lead-Free architecture. This ensures a clean, non-toxic hardware profiling that is completely safe for academic university labs, automotive electronic workshops, smart green-energy grids, and commercial automation control panels.
Hardware Wiring & Pin Layout
The module features a highly organized layout to keep low-voltage logic inputs clearly separated from high-voltage wiring:
1. Logic Control Input (Header Pins):
VCC: Connects to your +12V DC power source.
GND: System ground reference pin.
IN1: Trigger control line. Pulling this line HIGH or LOW (depending on your jumper setting) toggles the relay state.
2. High-Voltage Load Output (3-Way Screw Terminal):
NO (Normally Open): The circuit stays disconnected/open until the input trigger pin commands the relay to close.
NC (Normally Closed): The circuit stays connected/closed by default until the relay is triggered to open.
COM (Common Terminal): The central power wire from your load hooks up directly here.
Common Applications
Automotive Electronics: Automate or remotely switch car fog lights, secondary battery isolation rigs, audio amplifiers, or high-draw horns.
Solar & Marine Power Grids: Act as an automated low-voltage disconnect switch or routing relay inside battery-backed 12V solar setups.
Industrial PLC Interfacing: Serves as a reliable, intermediate sub-relay board to allow standard industrial control lines to toggle heavy pneumatic valves or warning sirens safely.
Safety Warning: Working with high-voltage 220V–240V AC mains lines carries an inherent risk of electrical shock. Always ensure your main power breakers are completely turned off before cutting, stripping, or securing wires to the screw terminal block.
