NOTES
1. For cautions for use, please read
“GENERAL APPLICATION
GUIDELINES” on page B-1.
2. Operation, transport and storage
Following is the conditions of ambient
temperature, humidity and air pressure in
case of operation, transport and storage.
1) Ambient temperature: –40 to +85°C
–40 to +185°F (Max.100A over 70°C
158°F)
2) Humidity: 5 to 85%RH (Not freezing
and condensing)
In addition the humidity range depends
on temperature.
The allowable ranges are as follows;
3) Air pressure: 86 to 106kPa
Allowable range of ambient temperature
and humidity for operation, transport and
storage.
4) Condensing
Condensing occurs when the relay is
exposed to sudden temperature change
in a high-temperature, high-humidity
atmosphere. This may cause some
troubles like insulation failure.
5) Freezing
At temperature below 0°C 32°F, moisture
may freeze. This may lead to some
troubles like sticking of the moving
portion of the relay or delayed operation.
6) Low-temperature, low-humidity
atmosphere
If the relay is exposed to a low-
temperature, low-humidity atmosphere
for a long time, its plastic parts may
become brittle and fragile.
3. Soldering and cleaning
1) In case of soldering, following
conditions should be observed.
Manual soldering:
Max. 260°C 500°F (solder temperature)
within 10s (soldering time)
Max. 350°C 662°F (solder temperature)
within 3s (soldering time)
* Furthermore, because the type of PC
board used and other factors may
influence the relays, test that the relays
function properly on the actual PC board
on which they are mounted.
2) Since this is not a sealed type relay, do
not clean it as is. Also, be careful not to
allow flux to overflow above the PC board
or enter the inside of the relay.
4. Terminal installation condition
Installation torque for contact terminal
(M4): 1.2 to 1.4 N·m
5. Cautions for use
1) This relay is designed to dust cover
type. Malfunction and contact failure may
result if small insects get inside the relay.
2) Installation of M4 securing screw for
contact terminal
Do not apply excessive pressure on the
terminals. This could adversely affect
relay performance. Use a washer in order
to prevent deformation.
Keep the installation torque to within 1.2
to 1.4 N·m (12 to 14 kgf·cm).
Also, use a spring washer to prevent it
from loosening.
3) Through hole on the relay is for
temporary fixing use. Do not fix relay
through hole only.
