Zodiac – Relay 12A 230V 2 changeover contacts – B0050800A

The Zodiac B0050800A is a genuine OEM replacement relay designed for use within the ZS500 pool heat pump control system. Operating at 230V AC and rated for a maximum switching current of 12A, this relay features 2 changeover contacts, making it suitable for controlling power circuits within the heat pump’s electronic control board. As a direct Zodiac spare part, it ensures full compatibility and reliable performance within the ZS500 system.

Relays are electromechanical switching devices that use an electromagnet to open or close electrical contacts. In the context of the ZS500 heat pump, this relay is responsible for switching power to key components such as compressors, fans, or auxiliary circuits. The 12A current rating indicates the relay can handle moderate-to-high power loads, while the 2 changeover (DPDT or equivalent) contact configuration allows for flexible circuit switching. The 230V coil voltage aligns with standard European single-phase mains supply, making it directly compatible with pool equipment installed across Europe and other 230V regions.
