Note: 1. The rated current and coil resistance are measured at a coil temperature of 23C with a tolerance of 10%.
2. The operating characteristics are measured at a coil temperature of 23C.
3. The maximum voltage is the highest voltage that can be imposed on the relay coil.

Note: 1. The contact resistance was measured with 10 mA at 1 VDC with a fall-of-potential method.
2. Values in parentheses are typical values unless otherwise stated.
3. The insulation resistance was measured with a 500-VDC Megohmmeter between coil and contacts and a 250 VDC megohmmeter between con-
tacts with the same polarity applied to the same parts as those for checking the dielectric strength.
4. The above values are initial values.
