Note: Please consult us regarding recommended PC board patterns. 

## **NOTES** 

## **1. Coil operating power** 

Pure DC current should be applied to the coil. The wave form should be rectangular. If it includes ripple, the ripple factor should be less than 5%. 

However, check it with the actual circuit since the characteristics may be slightly different. 

## **2. Cleaning** 

For automatic cleaning, the boiling method is recommended. Avoid ultrasonic cleaning which subjects the relays to high frequency vibrations, which may cause the contacts to stick. 

It is recommended that alcoholic solvents be used. 

## **3. Soldering** 

(Standard PC board terminal) 1) The manual soldering shall be performed under following condition. Max. 260°C 500°F 10s Max. 350°C 662°F 3s 

The affect of the PCB on the relay will differ depending on the type of PCB used. Please verify the type of PCB to be used. 

Preheat according to the following conditions. 

Temperature 120°C 248°F or less Time Within 2 minute 

Soldering should be done at 260±5°C 500±9°F within 6 s. 

2) In case of automatic soldering, the following conditions should be observed (Surface-mount terminal) 

(1) Position of measuring temperature 

J A 

A: Surface of PC board where relay is mounted. 

(2) IR (infrared reflow) soldering method 

**==> picture [153 x 61] intentionally omitted <==**

**----- Start of picture text -----**<br>
T3<br>T1=155 to 165°C<br>T2 311 to 329°F<br>T2=180 to 200°C<br>T1 356 to 392°F<br>T3=245°C max.<br>473°F max.<br> t1=within 120s<br>t1 t2  t2=within 30s<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br>


Temperature rise of relay itself may vary according to the mounting level or the heating method of reflow equipment. Therefore, please set the temperature of soldering portion of relay terminal and the top surface of the relay case not to exceed the above mentioned soldering condition. 

It is recommended to check the temperature rise of each portion under actual mounting condition before use.

2) Dimensions of plastic reel 

## **5. Conditions for operation, transport and storage conditions** 

1) Ambient temperature, humidity, and atmospheric pressure during usage, transport, and storage of the relay: 

(1) Temperature: 

–40 to +70°C –40 to +158°F 

(2) Humidity: 5 to 85% RH (Avoid freezing and condensation.) The humidity range varies with the temperature. Use within the range indicated in the graph below. 

(3) Atmospheric pressure: 86 to 106 kPa Temperature and humidity range for usage, transport, and storage:

2) Condensation 

Condensation forms when there is a sudden change in temperature under high temperature and high humidity conditions. Condensation will cause deterioration of the relay insulation. 3) Freezing Condensation or other moisture may freeze on the relay when the temperature is lower than 0°C 32°F. This causes problems such as sticking of movable parts or operational time lags. 

4) Low temperature, low humidity environments 

The plastic becomes brittle if the relay is exposed to a low temperature, low humidity environment for long periods of time. 

**For general cautions for use, please refer to the “General Application Guidelines”.**
