■Precautions
• Refer to Safety Precautions for All PCB Relays for general precautions.
Correct Use
● Installation
● Coil Voltage Reduction (Holding Voltage) after Relay
Operation
• If the coil voltage is reduced to the holding voltage after Relay
operation, first apply the rated voltage to the coil for at least
100 ms.
• A voltage of at least 37.5% of the rated voltage is required for
the coil holding voltage. Do not allow voltage fluctuations to
cause the coil holding voltage to fall below this level.
• If you use the Relay at the holding voltage, install a diode in
parallel with the coil. The G7L-PV has no coil polarity. Connect
the diode so that the polarity is the opposite of the applied coil
voltage.
Diode Selection
● Micro Loads
• The G7L-PV is a Power Relay that is suitable for grid
connection switching applications for inverters in photovoltaic
power systems. Do not use the G7L-PV to switch minute
loads, such as signals.
● Soldering PCB Terminals
• Do not perform automatic soldering. Always solder the
terminals manually.
• Solder with the following conditions: Soldering iron
temperature (max.) 380°C, Soldering time within 10 seconds.
• The G7L-PV is not sealed. Do not wash the G7L-PV with
water or detergent.
G7L
• Dielectric strength = VRM × Rated
voltage × 2
• Forward current = IF ≥ Rated current
● PCB Mounting Interval (at Rated Coil Voltage)
• If you mount more than one G7L-PV, maintain the mounting
intervals that are given in the following figures.
• If the Relays are used with the coil voltage at the holding
voltage (37.5%) at an ambient temperature of 85°C, side-byside mounting (0 mm) is possible.

• Install the Relays in locations that are as dry as possible and
have as little dust, dirt, and harmful gas as possible.
• Using the a Relay under high temperature, high humidity, or
harmful gas may deteriorate its performance characteristics
due to condensation or corrosive materials, resulting in failure
or burn damage to the Relay.
• The Relay weight approx. 100 g. Be sure that the PCB is
strong enough to support it. We recommend dual-side
through-hole PCBs to reduce solder cracking from heat stress.
• Install the Relay so that the surface with the markings faces
up. (The coil terminals will be at the top and the contact
terminals will be at the bottom.)
