**7** **G8PM** **High Power PCB Relay for Automotive and DC12 V Applications** ## **Precautions** ##  **Please refer to “Safety Precautions for All Automotive Relays” for correct use.** ## **Correct Use** 1. Coil Polarity for DC-operated Latching Relays Check the catalog for the terminal numbers and polarity of applied power to correctly connect the Relay. Applying voltage with reversed polarity to DC-operated Latching Relays may resulting malfunctions, set failure, or reset failure. 2. Drive Circuit - Energizing due to self-contact may prevent normal latching. Do not use Latching Relays in the following type of circuit. Use the type of circuit shown in the following figure. 5. Degradation over Time of Latching Relay Holding Ability If a Magnetic Latching Relay is used left set for an extended period, changes over time will degrade the magnetic force, and the reduction in holding ability may cause the set status to be released. This is also because of the properties of semi-hard magnetic material, and the rate of degradation over time depends on the ambient environment (e.g., temperature, humidity, vibration, and presence or absence of external magnetic fields). Perform maintenance at least once a year by resetting, applying the rated voltage again, and then setting. 6. Mounting Latching Relays Operate the Latching Relay so that the vibration and shock from other devices (e.g., Relays) on the same panel or board generated when setting or resetting do not exceed the catalog values. Exceeding the values may cause the set or reset state to be released. Latching Relays are shipped in the reset status, but abnormal vibration or shock may cause them to change to the set status. Be sure to apply a reset signal before using the Latching Relay. 3. Applying Voltage Simultaneously to Set and Reset Coils Do not apply voltage at the same time to the set and reset coils. Simultaneously applying voltage to the set and reset coils for an extended period may result in abnormal coil heating, fire, or incorrect operation. 4. DC Input Circuit Design Reverse voltage of a Relay coil or solenoid may cause operation failure if other Relay coils or solenoids are connected in parallel to the set coil or reset coil. As a countermeasure, change the circuit or connect diodes as shown in the following figures. ## Circuit Precautions Reset Coil Parallel Set Coil Parallel Connection Circuit Connection Circuit Set/Reset Coil Parallel Circuit with Other Relay Coil Connection Circuit in Parallel to Set Coil Please check each region's Terms & Conditions by region website. ## **OMRON Corporation** ## **Device & Module Solutions Company** ## **Regional Contact** **Americas** https://components.omron.com/us **Asia-Pacific** https://components.omron.com/ap **Korea** https://components.omron.com/kr **Europe** https://components.omron.com/eu **China** https://components.omron.com.cn **Japan** https://components.omron.com/jp © OMRON Corporation 2021-2024 All Rights Reserved.
