Note:
The G3PX-2@@EHN (model with multiple heater open circuit detecting function) and G3PX-2@@EC (constant-current model) require 20%
min. of the rated current to detect a short mode failure. EC-series models detect an open mode failure if the load current has dropped to
80% of the rated value. A short mode failure will be detected if the current has risen to 20% of the rated value.

Duty setting does not complete to the OFF state (i.e. 10% remains).
The start-up time is factory-set to 1 s on the EH Series, approx. 0.5 s on the EHN and EC Series.
This is the initial start-up time with a 100% duty setting.
Detection is effective when the set current is reduced by 20% or more.
The minimum set value in the G3PX-220EHN is 6 A. If a lower value is required, increase the number of wiring turns around the CT.
