Rated coil voltage
Notes: 1. When ordering, add the rated coil voltage to the model number.
Example: G6S-2F DC12
2. When ordering tape packing (surface mount models), add "-TR" to the model number.
When ordering High-sensitivity dual coil latching models, add "-H” to the model number.
Example: G6S-2F-TR DC12
"-TR" is not part of the relay model number. Therefore, it is not marked on the relay case.

Note: P level: λ60 = 0.1 x 10-6/operation
This value was measured at a switching frequency of 120 operations/min and the criterion of contact resistance is 50 Ω. This value may vary
depending on the operating environment. Always double-check relay suitability under actual operating conditions.

Precautions
•
Use a DC power supply with 5% or less ripple factor to operate the coil.
•
Do not use the G6S where subject to strong external magnetic fields.
•
Do not use the G6S where subject to magnetic particles or excessive
amounts of dust
.
•Do not reverse the polarity of the coil (+, −).
•Latching types are delivered in the reset position. We recommend
that a reset voltage be applied in advance to start operation.
•Do not drop the G6S or otherwise subject it to excessive shock.
•Remove the relay from the packing immediately prior to usage.
■Correct use
Long-term Continuously ON Contacts
Using the Relay in a circuit where the Relay will be ON continuously
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 rec-
ommend using a fail-safe circuit design that provides protection
against contact failure or coil burnout.
Relay Handling
Use the Relay as soon as possible after opening the moisture-proof
package. If the Relay is left for a long time after opening the mois-
ture-proof package, the appearance may suffer and seal failure may
occur after the solder mounting process. To store the Relay after
opening the moisture-proof package, place it into the original pack-
age and sealed the package with adhesive tape.
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 clean-
ing bath immediately after soldering.
G6S (K) (-U) -2 Soldering
•Soldering temperature: Approx. 250°C (At 260°C if the DWS
method is used.)
•Soldering time: Approx. 5 s max. (Approx. 2 s for the first time and
approx. 3 s for the second time if the DWS method is used.)
•Be sure to adjust the level of the molten solder so that the solder
will not overflow onto the PCB.
Claw Securing Force During Automatic Mounting
During automatic insertion of Relays, be sure to set the securing
force of each claw to the following so that the Relay’s characteristics
will be maintained.
