Mechanical endurance
1) Measured on 70x70x1.5mm epoxy PCB FR4 with 52cm
2
(double layer 140μm) copper
area.
2) The values apply to a resistive or inductive load with suitable spark suppression and at
maximum 13.5VDC for 12VDC load voltages.
3) See chapter Diagnostics of Relays in our Application Notes or consult the internet at
http://relays.te.com/appnotes/
4) For unsuppressed relay coil. A low resistive suppression device in parallel to the relay
coil increases the release time and reduces the lifetime caused by increased erosion
and/or higher risk of contact tack welding (monostable version only).
5) Be aware of using right polarity, see Terminal Assignment. Wrong polarity will reduce
endurance.
