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.

RELAY SOLDERING AND CLEANING GUIDELINES
In keeping with making devices compact,
it becoming more common weld the
relay board along with the
sem iconductors instead using the
previous plug-in type which relays
were plugged into sockets.g.

Keep the tip the soldering iron clean.
If the board pressed down into a
flux-soaked sponge shown the
right, the flux can easily penetrate a
dust-cover type relay.

• Adjust the level solder that does
not overflow onto the top the PC

Adjust the position the board so
that flux does not overflow onto the top
of it. Relay
performance cannot guaranteed if
the term inals are bent.
• Correctly drill the board according
to the given board pattern
illustration. Therefore, the
following precautions are provided for
soldering relay onto board. ith this
style, loss function may occur because
of seepage into the relay flux, which is
applied the board.
The type protective structure will
determine suitability for automatic
soldering autom atic cleaning.
Please refer them during installation in
order avoid problems.
• Stick packaging also available for
autom atic mounting, depending the
type relay.
• Preheat according the following
conditions.
• Unless otherwise specified, solder
under the following conditions
depending the type relay. seconds
• Please take caution with ulti-layer
boards. (Be sure that the relays
don't rattle.
