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.
The chart provides the
following advantages:
• The eibull distribution has the closest
proximity the actual lifetime
distribution. This process called
debugging, performing aging or
screening.
3.
• The eibull probability chart easy to
use.
The following describes the correlation
with the bathtub curve. What Failure?
Failure defined state system,
equipment, com ponent which part of
all its functions are impaired lost. In
this period, called accidental failure
period, failures occurs random along
the tim axis. Bathtub Curve
Product's failure rate throughout its
lifetime depicted bathtub curve, as
shown below.
(I) Initial failure period
The high failure rate the initial failure
period derived from latent design
errors, process errors, and many other
causes. Weibull Analysis
W eibull analysis often used for
classifying product's failure patterns
and determine its lifetime. Safe Life
Safe life inverse degree of
reliability. Initial failures are screened at
m anufacturer's site through burn-in
process. The value the

of the failure.

(III) ear-out failure period
In the final stage the product's service
lifetime comes the ear-out failure
period, which the life the product
expires due ear fatigue.
The use relay intended only the
accidental failure period, and this period
virtually represents the service lifetime of
the relay. Preventive
maintenance effective for this type of
failure.
(II) Accidental failure period
The initial failure period followed a
long period with low, stable failure rate.
