* For variation of maximum hot switching capacity of voltage with
current refer to plot.
† Note: As switch life deteriorates rapidly when hot switching
signals above 30VDC, it is advisable to only cold switch above this
level.
Relay Type
The 40-160 is fitted with electro-mechanical power relays, gold-
flash over silver alloy. A Spare Relay is built onto the circuit board
to facilitate easy maintenance with minimum downtime.
