1) Special high performance 24VDC version with contact gap >0.8mm, part number V23134-A0056-X432/-X433 (see part number table).
2) The values apply to a resistive or inductive load with suitable spark suppression and at maximum 14VDC for 12VDC or 28VDC for 24VDC load voltages. For a load current duration of
maximum 3s for a make/break ratio of 1:10.
3) Current and time are compatible with circuit protection by a typical automotive fuse. Relay will make, carry and break the specified current.
4) See chapter Diagnostics of Relays in our Application Notes or consult the internet at http://relays.te.com/appnotes/
5) For unsuppressed relay coil. A low resistive suppression device in parallel to the relay coil increases the release time and reduces the lifetime caused by increased erosion and/or higher
risk of contact tack welding.
