About Cd-free contacts
We have introduced Cadmium free type
products to reduce Environmental
Hazardous Substances. (The suffix “F”
should be added to the part number. The
Suffix “F” is required only for 1 Form C,
2 Form C, 3 Form C contact type. The
4 Form C and 4 Form C bifurcated (twin)
contact type is originally cadmium-free,
the suffix “F” is not required.)
Please replace parts containing
Cadmium with Cadmium-free products
and evaluate them with your actual
application before use because the life of
a relay depends on the contact material
and load.
FEATURES
1. With CR circuits built in, surge
voltage arising in the AC type when
the coil goes to the off state is
absorbed.
2. HC relay with LED indication type
also available
3. UL, CSA approval is standard
Compliance also with Japanese
Electrical Appliance and Material Control
Law.
TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
Suitable for factory automation
equipment and automotive devices
1. Control panels, power supply
equipment, molding equipment,
machine tools, welding equipment,
agricultural equipment, etc.
2. Office equipment, automatic
vending machines,
telecommunications equipment,
disaster prevention equipment,
copiers, measuring devices, medical
equipment, amusement devices, etc.
