The rated current and coil resistance are measured at a coil temperature of 23°C with a tolerance of ±10%.
The operating characteristics are measured at a coil temperature of 23°C.
The maximum voltage is the highest voltage that can be imposed on the relay coil.
The voltage measurements for Pick-up/Dropout are the values obtained for instantaneous changes in the voltage (rectangular wave).

Precautions
Be sure to read the precautions and information common to all Electromechanical Relays, contained in the Technical User’s Guide,
“Electromechanical Relays, Technical Information”, for correct use.
■ Correct Use
Long-term Continuously ON Contacts
Maximum Voltage
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. Be sure to use a
fail-safe circuit design that provides protection against contact failure
or coil burnout.
The maximum voltage of the coil can be obtained from the coil temperature increase and the heat-resisting temperature of coil insulating sheath material. (Exceeding the heat-resisting temperature may
result in burning or short-circuiting). The maximum voltage also
involves important restrictions which include the following:
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 moistureproof 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 package and
seal the package with adhesive tape.
• Must not cause thermal changes in or deterioration of the insulating
material.
• Must not cause damage to other control devices.
• Must not cause any harmful effect on people.
• Must not cause fire.
Therefore, be sure not to exceed the maximum voltage specified in
the catalog.
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.
As a rule, the rated voltage must be applied to the coil. A voltage
exceeding the rated value, however, can be applied to the coil provided that the voltage is less than the maximum voltage. It must be
noted that continuous voltage application to the coil will cause a coil
temperature increase thus affecting characteristics such as electrical
life and resulting in the deterioration of coil insulation.
Claw Securing Force During Automatic
Insertion
Coating
During automatic insertion of Relays, make sure to set the securing
force of the claws to the following values so that the Relay characteristics will be maintained.
Coil Power Supply Waveform
C
A
B
Direction A: 5.0 N max.
Direction B: 5.0 N max.
Direction C: 5.0 N max.
Secure the claws to the area indicated by shading.
Do not attach them to the center area or to only part of the
Relay.
Environmental Conditions During Operation,
Storage, and Transportation
Protect the Relays from direct sunlight and keep the Relays under
normal temperature, humidity, and pressure.
8
Low Signal Relay
Relays mounted on PCBs may be coated or washed. Do not apply
silicone coating or detergent containing silicone, otherwise the silicone coating or detergent may remain on the surface of the Relays.
G6L
If the voltage applied to the coil is increased or decreased gradually,
operating characteristics may be unstable, contact endurance may
decline, or the Relay may not function at its full performance level.
Therefore, always use an instantaneous ON and instantaneous OFF
when applying the voltage. Be sure that the rated voltage or zero
voltage is reached within 1 ms.
