It operates with 120 volts AC and can carry 15 amps. The operation time is 13 ms and the release time is 10 ms. The maximum bounce time is less than 10 ms.
The K10 Contact Specifications
-
There are two types of contacts available: Silver and Silver-Cadmium-Oxide. The configurations can be both Normally Open (NO), both Normally Closed (NC) or one NO and one NC. The Silver contacts can handle 100 mA and the Silver_Cadmium-Oxide contacts can handle 300 mA. The contacts are guaranteed for ten million operations and the resistance between open contacts is 1000 volts RMS.
