Recommended storage environment for automotive relays

1. Avoid direct sunlight and keep normal temperature, humidity and pressure; temperature: 10℃～35℃ humidity: 5～85%RH air pressure: 86～106kPa

2. In a high temperature and high humidity environment, when the ambient temperature changes rapidly, condensation may form inside the relay. In particular, condensation is prone to occur when shipping by ship, so please pay attention to the transportation environment. Condensation is the phenomenon of water vapor condensing into water droplets when the temperature changes from high temperature to low temperature in a high temperature and high humidity environment, or when the temperature changes from a low temperature to a high temperature and high humidity environment. Condensation can cause insulation degradation, coil corrosion, disconnection, rust, etc.

3. Low-temperature icing: In dew and high-humidity environments, when moisture is attached to the relay, moisture freezes when the temperature drops below the freezing point. Icing may cause adhesion of movable parts, delay of action, or ice cubes between the contacts, causing the contacts to malfunction.

4. In a low temperature and low humidity environment, plastics may become brittle.

5. When stored for a long time in a high temperature, high humidity and environment containing organic gas and sulfide gas, sulfide film and oxide film will be formed on the contact surface, which will cause unstable contact and contact failure. Please pay attention to the packaging form to minimize the influence of humidity, organic gas, sulfide gas, etc.

6. The relay should be stored and installed in a clean environment. Please use a dust cover or plastic-encapsulated relay in an environment with dust pollution.

7. Pay attention to monitor the storage temperature, try to avoid the relay storage time is too long.

8. Storage and transportation stress During transportation, if a large drop impact is applied to the relay, it may cause functional failure. Please pay attention to the integrity of the packaging material. The relay is packaged in a long tube. When the number of relays is small, if the limit is missing, it will slip and affect the appearance and characteristics of the relay. Pay special attention.
