Utilisation categories and switching capability
The CAD506SDS207 is rated for utilisation categories AC-14, AC-15, and DC-13. AC-14 covers electromagnetic loads up to 72 VA at 72 V DC coil rating; AC-15 covers solenoid loads above 72 VA; DC-13 covers solenoid loads with inductive time constants up to 300 ms. For a control relay, these categories define the real-world switching duty — not just a resistive current figure. The 5 NO pole arrangement allows direct control of five independent loads without auxiliary contact blocks.
Environmental and mechanical ruggedness
The relay withstands 10 Gn shock when open and 15 Gn when closed (11 ms half-sine per IEC 60068-2-27), plus vibration at 2 Gn open / 4 Gn closed across 5–300 Hz. This mechanical robustness is specified for the control relay in both open and closed states — relevant for applications where the relay must not chatter under track vibration or switch under shock. Protective treatment is TH conforming to IEC 60068, indicating tropicalisation for humid environments.
