Electrical resistance between the relay terminals of a closed

increased contact resistances can occur with smaller loads.

recommended before measurement of the contact resistance.

Unless otherwise stated all pcb relays sold after January 1st 2005
are pretinned with Sn99,3Cu0,7. The pre-soldered pins are suited
for standard soldering processes with Pb-solder as well as for Pb-
free solder processes. The solder bath temperature should not
exceed 270C for appr. 10 s for flux-proof relay versions (RT II)
and should be max. 260C for appr 5 s for wash-tight relays (RT
III).
For other bath temperatures and solder time (e.g. higher solder
bath temperature with reduced dipping time) contact our
technical support.
Manual soldering
For manual soldering, we recommend a soldering temperature of
300 to 350C for a maximum soldering time of 2 s.
Cooling
The thermal loading resulting from the soldering process can be
reduced at the end of the process by cooling. Do not change the
temperature suddenly, especially avoid cold shock for the hot
relay.
