GE VersaMax IC200ERM002 - Relay Contact Ratings

GFK-1504N B-1
Relay Contact Ratings
Mechanical Rating
Relay contacts are rated for 10
7
operations.
Electrical Rating
The relay contacts used in VersaMax modules meet Underwriters Laboratories’
Pilot Duty Rating for Control Circuits. Contact life depends on type of load and
current, as summarized in the following table.

Power Factor = 0.4 minimum for AC inductive loads
Time Constant – 7mS for DC inductive loads
Installing suitable suppression across inductive loads enhances reliability. For
DC, a free-wheeling diode provides suitable suppression. For AC, an R-C filter
can be used.
