A CURRENT IN AMPERES 100 10 .1 .01 1 .1 Agency File Numbers: UL Listing. File E75865, Guide # JDYX. CSA Certification. File LR65063, Class 1422-01. UL Recognized. File E75865, Guide # JDYX2. Mechanical Characteristics: Materials: Endcaps are silver-plated brass; leads are tin-plated copper and tube is glass. Optional sleeve is flexible fluoropolymer (UL Flammability rating VW-1). The tube will self extinguish within one minute. 25% maximum flag burn per ASTM Flammability Test ASTM D2671 Procedure C. Lead Pull: Leads will withstand a seven pound pull applied axially to the lead for five seconds. Lead Bend: Leads will be bent 90 degrees in one direction, back to original direction, then 90 degrees in the opposite direction and return to the cycle. Leads will withstand two cycles. The bending is to be done with a two pound weight attached to the end of the lead. Temp. Range: -55°C to +85°C with proper derating. Weight: 1000 = 1.33kg.
