G6K(U)-2F-RF(-S, -T)
Surface-mounting High-frequency Relay
Surface-mounting, 1-GHz-Band/3-GHz-Band,
Miniature, DPDT, High-frequency Relay
Superior high-frequency characteristics (at 1 GHz), such as an isolation of
20 dB min. between contacts of the same polarity or 30 dB min. between
contacts of different polarity with an insertion loss of 0.2 dB max.
Miniaturized to 10.3 × 6.9 × 5.4 mm (L × W × H).
Rated power consumption of 100 mW with high sensitivity.
Single-side stable and single-winding latching models available.
Models with a smaller footprint (G6K(U)-2F-RF-S) are available to
help save space.
New G6K(U)-2F-RF-T models for 3-GHz band join the lineup with a
downsized footprint.

Note: When ordering Relays in tape packing, add “-TR03” or “-TR09” to the end of the model number. If “-TR” is not added, the Relays
will be provided in tray packing.
Relays per reel: 300 for “-TR03”
900 for “-TR09”
This specification, however, is not part of the relay model number, so it is not marked on the relay case.

Recommended Soldering Method
Recommended Conditions for IRS Method
(Surface-mounting Terminals)
(1) IRS Method (Mounting Solder: Lead)
Note: The temperature profile indicates the temperature on the
circuit board surface.
(2) IRS Method (Mounting Solder: Lead-free)
Note: The temperature profile indicates the temperature on the
PCB.
The thickness of cream solder to be applied should be between
200 and 250 μm and the land pattern should be based on
OMRON’s recommended PCB pattern.
To maintain the correct soldering joint shown in the following dia-
gram, we recommend applying solder with the soldering condi-
tions shown on the left.
Check the soldering in the actual mounting conditions before use.

Safety Precautions
For general precautions, refer to the PCB Relays Catalog (X033).
Familiarize yourself with the precautions and glossary before
using the G6K(U)-2F-RF.
Precautions for Correct Use
Relay Handling
Use the Relay as soon as possible after opening the moisture-
proof package. If the Relay is left for a long time after opening the
moisture-proof package, the appearance may suffer and seal fail-
ure may occur after the solder mounting process. To store the
Relay after opening the moisture-proof package, place it into the
original package and seal the package with adhesive tape.
When washing the product after soldering the Relay to a PCB,
use a water-based solvent or alcohol-based solvent and keep the
solvent temperature to less than 40°C. Do not put the Relay in a
cold cleaning bath immediately after soldering.
Environmental Conditions for Usage, Storage,
and Transport
Avoid direct sunlight when using, storing, or transporting the
Relay and maintain normal temperature, humidity, and pressure
conditions.
Long-term, Continuous ON Contacts
Using the Relay in a circuit where the Relay will be ON continu-
ously for long periods (rather than switching) can lead to unstable
contacts because the heat generated by the coil itself will affect
the insulation and can cause a film to develop on the contact sur-
faces. We recommend using a latching relay (magnetic-holding
relay) in this kind of circuit. If a single-side stable model must be
used in this kind of circuit, we recommend adding fail-safe circuits
in case the contact fails or the coil burns out.
Claw Securing Force During Automatic
Mounting
During automatic insertion of Relays, be sure to set the securing
force of each claw to the following so that the Relay’s characteris-
tics will be maintained.
Coating
Do not use silicone coating to coat the Relay when it is mounted
to the PCB. Do not wash the PCB after the Relay is mounted
using detergent containing silicone. Otherwise, the detergent may
remain on the surface of the Relay.
Repeatability
Contact your OMRON representative if the Relay will be used in
an application that requires high repeatability in high-frequency
characteristics for the microload region. (Such applications
include testing and measurement equipment and ATE applica-
tions.)

BDirection A: 1.96 N max.
Direction B: 4.90 N max.
Direction C: 1.96 N max.
Secure the claws to the shaded area.
Do not attach them to the center of the
Relay or just one part of the Relay.
