Users should thoroughly review the technical data before selecting a product
part number. It is recommended that users also seek out the pertinent approvals
files of the agencies/laboratories and review them to ensure the product meets
the requirements for a given application.
Features
• Single or dual-wound DC coils or single-wound AC coils.
• Contact arrangements to 3PDT.
• Reset occurs by reversing polarity in a single coil relay or by energizing
the reset winding in dual coil relays.
• Uses same sockets as other KU relays.
• Well suited for applications such as alarm systems, machine tools,
battery chargers and process controls.
Contact Data @ 25°C
Arrangements:
DC Single Coil: 1 Form C (SPDT), 2 Form C (DPDT) and
3 Form C (3PDT).
DC Dual Coil: 1 Form C (SPDT) and 2 Form C (DPDT).
AC Single Coil: 1 Form C (SPDT), 2 Form C (DPDT) and
3 Form C (3PDT).
Materials: Siver-cadmium oxide.
Expected Life:
Mechanical: 10 million operations.
Electrical: 100,000 operations minimum at rated load.
Coil Data @ 25°C
Duty Cycle: Continuous. (Latch and reset not to be energized
simultaneously).
Initial Insulation Resistance: 100 megohms, minimum.
Initial Breakdown Voltage: 1500V rms, 60 Hz. between all elements.
Initial Dielectric Strength
Between Open Contacts: 500V rms.
Between Adjacent Contacts: 1,500V rms.
Between Contacts and Coil: 1,500V rms.
Operate Data @ 25°C
Must Operate Voltage:
DC Coils: 75% of nominal voltage.
AC Coils: 85% of nominal voltage.
Operate Time : 25 milliseconds maximum at nominal voltage.
Release or Reset Time: 25 milliseconds maximum at nominal voltage.
Environmenal Data
Temperature Range:
Storage: -45°C to +105°C.
Operating:
Single Coil AC & DC: -45°C to +70°C.
Dual Coil DC: -45°C to +50°C.
Mechanical Data
Termination:.187" (4.75mm) quick connect/solder terminals. Sockets are
available.
Enclosure: Clear plastic polycarbonate heat and shock resistant case.
Weight: 3.4 oz. (96g) approximately.
Note: On single coil AC models one terminal is common. Latch/Reset function is
accomplished by input in series with a diode to provide the correct polarity to the coil.
To perform either function, the terminal not being used (Latch or Reset) must be open
or isolated with no other path to common or ground.

*Dual coil available only with 1 or 2 Form C contacts. On standard dual
coil relays, the latch and unlatch voltage must be the same. For unlike
voltages, please contact your sales representative.
** Diodes and resistors included inside relay with 1 and 2 Form C
contacts. For 3 Form C relays, the customer must furnish and wire
diodes and resistors externally.
