Engineering Data
Reference:A maximum current of 0.15 A can be switched at 125 VDC (cos φ = 1)
and a maximum current of 0.1 A can be switched if L/R is 7 ms. In
both cases, a life of 100,000 operations can be expected.
The minimum applicable load is 10 mA (100 mA for H3CR-A8E) at

Application Examples
A Mode: ON-delay
ON-delay operation (A mode) is a basic mode.
1. Power-ON Start/Power-OFF Reset
The
Power-ON start/Power-OFF reset operation is a standard oper -
ating
method.

The flicker operation in the B and B2 modes can be effectively
applied
to lamp or buzzer (ON and OFF) alarms or the monitoring of
an intermittent operation with a display .

keep
a load operating for a certain period. For example, this function
enables the cooling fan for a lamp or heater to operate for a certain
period after the lamp or heater is switched OFF .
