EC2/EE2 Series: Applications

Miniature Signal Relays
EC2/EE2 Series
Overview Applications
The KEMET EC2/EE2 miniature signal relays offer a • Electronic switching systems
compact case size in a slim package. Minimal board space • PBX
is consumed with either a through-hole or surface mount • Terminal equipment
configuration. These relays are recognized by UL and CSA, • Telephone systems
while also being compliant with Part 68 of the FCC’s 1,500
V surge capacity.
Benefits
• Low power consumption (< 200 mW)
• Compact and lightweight
• Low magnetic interference
• Tube or embossed tape and reel packaging
• UL recognized (E73266) and CSA certified (LR46266)
• Surface mount and through-hole options
• High Breakdown Voltage (NKX) type can withstand 1.5
kVAC at open contacts

Notes on Using Relays cont’d
5. Handling and Storage

• Relays are packaged in magazine cases for shipment. If a space is created in the case after some relays have been
removed, be sure to insert a stopper to secure the remaining relays in the case. If relays are not well secured, vibration
during transportation may cause malfunctioning of the contacts.
• Exercise care in handling the relay so as to avoid dropping it or allowing it to fall. Do not use a relay that has been
dropped. If a relay drops from a workbench to the floor, a shock of 9,800 m/s2 (1,000 G) or more is applied to the relay,
possibly damaging its functions. Even if a light shock has been applied to the relay, thoroughly evaluate its operation
before using it.
• Latching relays are factory-set to reset state for shipment. A latching relay may be set, however, by vibration or shock
applied while being transported. Be sure to forcibly reset the relay before using it in the application set. Also note that
the relay may be set by unexpected vibration or shock when it is used in a portable set.
• The sealability of a surface mount (SMT) relay may be lost if the relay absorbs and is then heated during soldering.
When storing relays, therefore, observe the following points:
1. For standard packing, please use relays within 12 months after delivery (storage conditions: 30°C/60% RH). If the
relays have moisture absorption, dehumidify as follows:
– Tape Packaging: 50 ±5°C, 200–300 hours.
– Simple Relay: 85 ±5°C, 48 hours.
2. For MBB packing, please use relays within 2 years after delivery (storage conditions: 30°C/60% RH). After
opening MBB packing, please use within 3 months (storage conditions: 30°C/60% RH).
