Technical Information – Relays
PCB Relays
Cleaning
Boiling cleaning and immersion cleaning are recommended.
Ultrasonic cleaning will have an adverse effect on the performance of relays not specifically manufactured for ultrasonic cleaning.
List of Cleaning Solvent
Note: 1. Consult your OMRON representative before using any other cleaning solvent. Do not use Freon-TMC-based, thinner-based, or
gasoline-based cleaning solvents.
2. Worldwide efforts are being made at discontinuing the use of CFC-113-based (fluorochlorocarbon-based) and trichloroethylene-
based cleaning solvents. The user is requested to refrain from using these cleaning solvents
3. It may be difficult to clean the space between the relay and PCB using hydrogen-based or alcohol–based cleaning solvent. It is
recommended the stand-off-type be used G6A- -ST when using hydrogen-based or alcohol-based cleaning solvents.
4. Ultrasonic cleaning may have an adverse effect on the performance of relays not specifically manufactured for ultrasonic
cleaning. Please refer to the model number to determine if your relay is intended to be cleaned ultrasonically.
