The rated switching power and life mentioned in the specification and catalog are given only as guides. A relay may encounter a variety of ambient conditions during actual use resulting in unexpected failure. Therefore, it is necessary for proper use of the relay to test and review with actual load and actual application under actual operating conditions.

Use that exceeds the specification ranges such as the coil rating, contact rating and switching life should be absolutely avoided. Doing so may lead to abnormal heating, smoke, and fire.

Never touch live parts when power is applied to the relay. Doing so may cause electrical shock. When installing, maintaining, or troubleshooting a relay (including connecting parts such as terminals and sockets), be sure that the power is turned off.

When connecting terminals, please follow the internal connection diagrams in the catalog to ensure that connections are done correctly. Be warned that an incorrect connection may lead to unexpected operation error, abnormal heating, and fire.

If there is a possibility that adhesion, contact failure, or breaking of wire could endanger assets or human life, please make sure that a fail-safe system is equipped in the vehicle.

In order to use the relays properly, the characteristics of the selected relay should be well known, and the conditions of use of the relay should be investigated to determine whether they are matched to the environmental conditions, and at the same time, the coil specification, contact specification, and the ambient conditions for the relay that is actually used must be fully understood in advance.

In the table below, please refer to a summary of the consideration points regarding selection of relay.
