Precautions
Refer to page 25 for information on general precautions. Be sure to read these precautions before using the Relay.
Precautions for Correct Use
Long-term Continuously ON Contacts
Using the Relay in a circuit where the Relay will be ON continu-
ously for long periods (without switching) can lead to unstable
contacts because the heat generated by the coil itself will affect
the insulation, causing a film to develop on the contact surfaces.
We recommend using a latching relay (magnetic-holding relay) in
this kind of circuit. If a single-side stable model must be used in
this kind of circuit, we recommend using a fail-safe circuit design
that provides protection against contact failure or coil burnout.
Installation
Do not reverse the polarity of the coil (+, -).
Provide sufficient space between Relays when mounting two or
more on the same PCB, as shown in the following diagram.
Wiring
Refer to the following diagram when wiring to switch a DC load.
The difference in polarity applied to the contacts will affect the
endurance of the Relay due to the amount of contact movement.
To extend the endurance characteristics beyond the performance
ratings, wire the common (pin 7) terminal to the positive (+) side.
Ultrasonic Cleaning
Do not use ultrasonic cleaning on standard relay models. Doing
so may result in resonance, coil burnout, and contact adhesion
within the Relay. Use a model designed for ultrasonic cleaning if
ultrasonic cleaning is required.
Relay Handling
When washing the product after soldering the Relay to a PCB,
use a water-based solvent or alcohol-based solvent, and keep the
solvent temperature to less than 40°C. Do not put the Relay in a
cold cleaning bath immediately after soldering.
