Precautions

 Please refer to “Safety Precautions for All Relays” for correct use.

 Electrical Appliances and Materials Safety Act

The G9KB-1A series does not comply with the Electrical Appliances and Materials Safety Act. Please select our relays carefully in

accordance with the application you wish to use the product for.

As this relay is a high-voltage and high-current type,

there is a risk of abnormal heat generation, smoke

generation or fire if you use the relay with a contact

voltage, current, or for a number of times beyond the

specified range. Use only within the specified ranges.

If the power is switched on when the connections

are insufficient, there is a risk of abnormal heat

generation. Do not connect and use probes and

sockets on individual relays.

If the power is switched on when the connections

are insufficient, there is a risk of abnormal heat

generation. Please install and use relays under

recommended conditions.

Drop

• Do not use relays that have been dropped as they may not

function properly.

Mounting Direction

• The relay is limited for mounting direction due to the

specification of operation voltage and electrical durability.

Do not use in any other direction except as indicated in below

chart. There is a risk of reduced operational lifetime for failure

to observe this warning.

 Coil Voltage Reduction (Holding Voltage) after Relay

Operation

• Use this relay with coil voltage reduction.

• Apply the rated voltage for 0.1 to 3 seconds to the coil first.

• The range of coil rated voltage must be set as 100 to 110%,

and holding voltage must be 45 to 60%. Do not exceed the

ranges due to the change of coil voltage difference and so on.

*

The coil resistances were measured at a coil temperature of 23°C with

tolerances of ± 10%.

Diode Connection for Operating Coil

• Connect diode and Zener diode (or Varistor) to the coil (refer to

the picture below).

Diode is for coil surge absorption. Ensure to include Zener

diode as there is a possibility of any influence for switching

capability when only using diodes.

• Coil has no polarity. Connect the diodes in the reverse polarity

of the voltage applied to the coil.

• The recommended Zener diode voltage is 3 times that of the

rated coil voltage.

• Use diodes with reverse dielectric strength 10 times or more

that of coil rated voltage, and with forward current more than

coil rated current.

PCB Terminal soldering

• Solder at 290°C for 20 seconds (max.) in soldering bath.

• It is not possible to wash relay as this is not fully sealed type.

Assembly

• Assemble relays in an environment with less amount of dust

and harmful gases.

• Using the Relay under high temperature, high humidity, or

harmful gas may deteriorate its performance characteristics

due to condensation or corrosive materials, resulting in failure

or burn damage to the relay.

• This product weight is about 110 g. Be careful of the strength

of PCB. To reduce soldering crack due to heat stress, use both

sides through hole PCB.
