Reliability Tests
The test results in the table below were gathered from a 1 sec ON/OFF test cycle. Please note
that the over current induced by in-rush greatly reduces the relay contacts service life. The
rated life for an inductive AC load such as a contactor or solenoid valve is 500,000 operations
at 20VA.

Response Times
OFF times increase as the load current decreases.
For improved response times use a 'dummy' resistor, see the figure below. If a response time
of 0.5 ms or better is required when using 'light loads' use a 'dummy' resistor and ensure the
signal line has a current greater than 60mA/24V DC

Y000 and Y001 are high speed response
outputs with the following characteristics:
10 - 100mA at 5 - 24V DC, 100kHz maximum
output signal.
If a high speed response is required, a current
of 10 - 100mA must be used.
