Select the sealed-type for exposure to water. In the case of water exposure in severe conditions or immersion, please verify water resistance of the relay or contact us. Even for sealed-type relays, its terminals are not waterproof, so please avoid a failure such as terminal corrosion.

Note that moisture adhered on relay in a due condensation or a high humidity condition freezes when the temperature is lower than 0°C. This may cause problems such as sticking of movable parts or operational time lags, or poor contact conduction. Therefore, please test them in actual use environment.

Note that if a relay is connected or installed with a high heat-capacity such as bas bar, connector, harness, and PCB, heat removal phenomenon will accelerate cooling of the relay inside and promote freezing. So, please verify in actual installation condition.

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

Please consider the vibration at installation area to avoid loosely-contact.

Also, note that even a microscopic vibration may cause contact failure at the contact area of relay terminal and connector.

Decrease of fitting performance of connector may cause abnormal heat at connector contact area depending on use temperature and applying heat. Sufficient margin of safety must be provided in selection of a connector.

Please select the proper material of connector and surface treatment to avoid corrosion at the contact area of relay terminal and connector and increase of resistance at connecting area which may be caused depending on ambient environment.

1. Cautions regarding Pattern Layout for Relays

Since relays affect electronic circuits by generating noise, the following points should be noted.

•Keep relays away from semiconductor devices.

•Design the pattern traces with the shortest length.

•Place the surge absorber (diode, etc.) near the relay coil.

•Avoid routing pattern traces susceptible to noise (such as for audio signals) underneath the relay coil section.

•Avoid through-holes in places which cannot be seen from the top (e.g. at the base of the relay). Solder flowing up through such a hole may cause damage such as a sealing failure.

•Even for the same circuit, it is necessary to consider the pattern design in order to minimize the influence of the on/off operations of the relay coil and lamp on other electronic circuits, as shown in the figure below.
