with built-in diodes, and models with built-in CR
circuits),
3-pole and 4-pole models
Note: 1.
Some models in the LY1 and LY2 Series have an upper
temperature limit of +40°C. This limitation is due to the
diode junction temperature and the elements used.
2.
Refer to the ambient temperature and contact car ry
current characteristics data on page 5 to 7 for
information on operation in temperature conditions that
are not described here.
3.
When you apply a minimum of 10 A of current to an LY1
when it is used in combination with a PTF08A, PTF08A-
E, or PT08, connect ea ch of the following terminal pairs:
(1) to (2), (3) to (4), and (5) to (6).
*1.
If the carry current is 4 A or less , the usable ambient temperature
range is
−
25 to 70° C.
*2.
If the flowing current is 4 A or less, the usable ambient
temperature range is -25 to 55° C.
