- 3) In case 5V of transistor drive circuit, it is recommended to use 4.5V type relay, and 3V to use 2.4V type relay. - 4) For monostable relays，if you need to drop down voltage and hold mode after reliably operating,make sure that the effective value of holding voltage is not less than 60% of the rated voltage. - 5) Maximum voltage refers to the maximum voltage which relay coil could endure in a short period of time. - 6) When user's requirements can't be found in the above table, special order allowed. - 7) During the relay pick-up or drop-out processes, there are stages of contact pressure change, contact vibration and unstable contact etc. When the voltage applied to coil is gradually changed, it will lengthen the unstable stage and affect relay endurance. To reduce this influence, please apply step voltage(switching circuit) to relay coil. 19 ## **TYPICAL CONTACT LIFE EXPECTANCY** |Voltage|Power|Electrical endurance|Electrical endurance| |---|---|---|---| |||Resistive Load|Inductive Load

Remark: 1) The pin dimension of the product outline drawing is the size before tinning (it will become larger after tinning), and the mounting hole size is the recommended design size of the PCB board hole. The specific PCB board hole design size can be mapped and adjusted according to the actual product. - 2) In case of no tolerance shown in outline dimension: outline dimension ≤ 1mm, tolerance should be ±0.2mm; outline dimension ＞ 1mm and ≤ 5mm, tolerance should be ±0.3mm; outline dimension ＞ 5mm, tolerance should be ±0.4mm. - 3) The tolerance without indicating for PCB layout is always ±0.1mm. - 4) The width of the gridding is 2.54mm. 21 ## **CHARACTERISTIC CURVES** ## MAXIMUM SWITCHING POWER **==> picture [138 x 143] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**

- 1) This relay is highly sensitive polarized relay, if correct polarity is not applied to the coil terminals, the relay does not operate properly. - 2) To avoid using relays under strong magnetic field which will change the parameters of relays such as pick-up voltage and drop-out voltage. - 3) Relay is on the “reset” status when being released from stock, with the consideration of shock risen from transit and relay mounting, it should be changed to the “set” status when application(connecting to the power supply). Please reset the relay to “set” or “reset” status on request. - 4) Energizing coil with rated voltage is basic for normal operation of a relay, please make sure the energized voltage to relay coil have reached the rated voltage. Regarding latching relay, in order to maintain the "set" or "reset" status, impulse width of the rated voltage applied to coil should be more than 5 times of "set" or "reset" time. - 5) For a monosteady state relay, after the relay is reliably operated, if it needs to be kept under pressure, make sure that the effective value of the voltage is not less than 60% of the rated voltage; - 6) For 2 coil latching relay,do not emergize voltage to "set" coil and "reset" coil simultaneously. - 7) The relay may be damaged because of falling or when shocking conditions exceed the requirement. - 8) This product is suitable for wave soldering or manual soldering with a soldering iron. - 9) Contact is recommended for suitable condition and specifications if water cleaning or surface process is involved in assembling relays on PCB.10) Regarding the plastic sealed relay, we should leave it cooling naturally untill below 40remarkably the temperature of solvents should also be controlled below 40oC.Please avoid cleaning the relay by ultrasonic, avoid using theoC after welding, then clean it and deal with coating, solvents like gasoline, Freon, and so on, which would affect the configuration of relay or influence the environment. - 11) When applied with continuous current, the heat from relay coil will age its isolation. Thus, please do not ground connected the coil to reduce electrical errosion if possible. And please provide protection circuit to avoid broken wire and losses. - 12) Please make sure that there are no silicon-based substances (such as silicon rubber, silicone oil, silicon-based coating agents, silicon fillers, etc.) around the relay, because it will generate silicon-containing volatile gas, which may cause poor contact in case of silicon-containing volatile gas sticking on contact.Flux proofed and dust cover type relays are prohibited in environments with water vapor and harmful gases (P, Cl, H2S, SO2, NO2). Plastic sealed relays shall be used with practical test verification. - 13) About preferable condition of operation, storage and transportation, please refer to "Explanation to terminology and guidetines of relay". - 14) During the relay pick-up or drop-out processes, there are stages of contact pressure change, contact vibration and unstable contact etc. **Notice** When the voltage applied to coil is gradually changed, it will lengthen the unstable stage and affect relay endurance. To reduce this influence, please apply step voltage(switching circuit) to relay coil. ## Disclaimer The specification is for reference only. See to "Terminology and Guidelines" for more information.
