Solid State Relay G3TC 10
■ Operating and Storage
Environments
Operating Ambient Temperature
The rated value for the ambient operating temperature of the G3TC
is for when there is no built-up heat. For this, reason, under condi-
tions where heat dissipation is not good due to poor ventilation, and
where heat may build up easily, the actual temperature of the G3TC
may exceed the rated value resulting in malfunction or burning.
When using the G3TC, design the system to allow heat dissipation
sufficient to stay below the Load Current vs. Ambient Temperature
characteristic curve. Note also that the ambient temperature of the
G3TC may increase as a result of environmental conditions (e.g., cli-
mate, air-conditioning) and operating conditions (e.g., mounting in an
airtight panel).
Operating and Storage Locations
Do not use or store the G3TC in the following locations. Doing so
may result in damage, malfunction, or deterioration of performance
characteristics.
1. Do not use or store in locations subject to direct sunlight.
2. Do not use in locations subject to ambient temperatures outside
the range -30° to 80°C.
3. Do not use in locations subject to relative humidity outside the
range 45% to 85% or locations subject to condensation as the
result of severe change in temperature.
4. Do not store in locations subject to ambient temperatures outside
the range -30° to 100°C.
5. Do not use or store in locations subject to corrosive or flammable
gases.
6. Do not use or store in locations subject to dust (especially iron
dust) or salts.
7. Do not use or store in locations subject to shock or vibration.
8. Do not use or store in locations subject to exposure to water, oil,
or chemicals.
Transportation
When transporting the G3TC, observe the following points. Not doing
so may result in damage, malfunction, or deterioration of perfor-
mance characteristics.
1. Do not drop the G3TC or subject it to severe vibrations or shock.
2. Do not transport the product if it is wet.
Vibration and Shock
Do not subject the SSR to excessive vibration or shock. Otherwise
the SSR may malfunction and internal components may be dam-
aged.
