Panasonic is part of a large worldwide groupselling relays and associated switching products under different brand names in different territories.The conditions of use in some territories may differ from those customary in Europe. In particular there are often major differences in regard to national and international specifications, such as UL, CSA, VDE, SEV, EVE, SEMKO, etc. Thus, when considering contact loads as stated in this catalogue (e.g. 10 A, 30 VDC for the SP relay) its hould be understood that these values are not necessarily an absolute maximum but tested ratings. Mostly the stated value has been tested for a certain life expectancy as stated by the manufacturer or the respective test house. Thus, under different conditions, the stated “maximum” may, in practice, be safely exceeded.

1. Insulation Resistance
The resistance value between all
mutually isolated conducting sections of
the relay, i.

- Between open contacts
- Between contact sets

5. Except where otherwise specified, the
tests above are conducted under

(15°C 35°C 59°F 95°F, to
85%). Electrical Life
The minimum number times the relay
can operated under nominal
conditions with specific load being
switched the contacts.
2) Destructive
The vibration which can withstood by
the relay during shipping, installation or
use without suffering damage, and
without causing change its operating
characteristics. (With multiple pole devices the

The elapsed time from the initial removal
of coil power until the reclosure the
Form (normally closed) contacts (last
contact with multi-pole). However, test was performed total

MECHANICAL PERFORMANCE AND LIFE
1. Contact Bounce (Time)
Generally expressed time (ms), this
refers the intermittent switching
phenomenon the contacts which
occurs due the collision between the
movable metal parts contacts, when
the relay operated released. Shock Resistance
1) Functional
The acceleration which can tolerated
by the relay during service without
causing the closed contacts open for
more than the specified time. Mechanical Life
The minimum number times the relay
can operated under nominal
conditions (coil voltage, temperature,
humidity, etc. This value usually expressed
as “initial insulation resistance” and may
decrease with time, due material
degradation and the accumulation of
contaminants.
