Reliability Tests
The test results in Table 6.2 were gathered from a 1 sec ON/OFF test cycle. Please note that
the over current induced by in-rush greatly reduces the relay contact’s service life. The rated
life for an inductive AC load such as a contactor or solenoid valve is 500,000 operations at
20VA.
