Temperature range:
Operating temperature range: -70°C to +125°C.
Wire sealing: A resilient grommet is permanently bonded to the wire entry face of the socket so as
to provide moisture sealing capabilities for AWG size 12, 16, and 22 wire as applicable (see figure
1, front view).
Mechanical:
Vibration (sinusoidal): In accordance with MIL-STD-202, method 204, test condition G.
a. Except that the frequency range shall be varied logarithmically between the limits of 10 Hz and
3,000 Hz.
b. Except that the procedure of method 201 of MIL-STD-202 may be applied during 10 Hz to 55
Hz band of the vibration frequency range.
c. Qualified mating relay shall be used as a test gauge.
Vibration (random): In accordance with mIL-STD-1344, method 2005, test condition V, letter G, with a
test duration 15 minutes. The mating relay shall be used as the test gage.
Shock (mechanical): In accordance with MIL-STD-202, method 213, condition C, except peak value
shall be 200 g's.
