Thank you Julio. I was "blind sided" by these in another video. The on-the-scene video makers think we know our way around "ice cube relays". Phew. Full stop. Glad I found this video to get caught up ice cube relays.

[@AirConAcademy]

Thank you so much! I appreciate your comments. I know that none of us know everything and I'm trying to fill in the gaps, I guess because I had some of those gaps at one time and I still have some gaps about other things. Thank you very much!

@@AirConAcademy I need to learn how to wire them for controls. We are doing greenhouses for cannabis, and I want to learn how to wire exhaust fans to a relay and the contactor. I'm still a newbie

[@AirConAcademy]

@@Sanquezo I know how it is. give me a little more information as to what you need to do and I will see about doing a video for you.

[@osmankjr7150]

[@andysmith374]

Excellent explanation of the Ice cube relay. I’m having a problem with the one I have operating my humidifier. It has a 24v coil and switches a 24vDC solenoid. It worked for about 10 years and now nothing. I even picked up a new cube. It closes but doesn’t send power out of any of the contacts. Any idea where to start with this? It has been driving me crazy trying to figure it out. Thanks

[@anvibrimel41]

Thanks a lot for your teachings you are a really good teacher,can you teach how to test the diferente components of a heat pump,Thanks a lot again Teacher

[@AirConAcademy]

Angel Delgado Thank you, I do need to make more videos on heat pumps. I will see what I can do. Thank you.

[@michaelcostello6991]

I saw a couple of these on a boiler. They may have been for remote alarms but i have no idea. Can you give a complex example of where they are actually used.

[@AirConAcademy]

These relays are used in a lot of places in the HVAC industry. They are a lot of times used in controls like you said they could be used for an alarm system. They can be used on defrost controls for heat pumps. The coil voltage may vary, it could be 24 V or it could be 110 V you have to be careful with those coil voltages.

[@Agarbe]

Is there a way to seal in the coil?

[@AirConAcademy]

I am not sure I understand what you mean by "seal in the coil" you cannot change the coil, it is inside the relay and it is sealed inside. Let me know if you still have a question.

[@Agarbe]

@@AirConAcademy I figured out what I was trying to ask. What I was trying to ask was if you were to set up a relay with a stop start circuit how would you seal the coil in to where you put power to the coil and make it hold.
