Carlo Gavazzi 3-Phase solid state relays for panel mounting

Nov. 27, 2018

Carlo Gavazzi's 3-phase RGC3 Solid State Relays (SSRs) is a 48 AAC per phase rated device with a panel mount or thru-wall mount, natural convection heatsink.

The new 48 AAC rated 3-phase relay uses a larger, natural convection heat sink that eliminates the need for additional supply voltage if system monitoring is not required. The device can be panel-mounted inside of an electrical enclosure, or if a side-wall cutout is available, the heatsink portion of the relay can be mounted outside of the cabinet. Thru-wall mounting keeps the heat generated during the operation of the SSRs outside of the enclosure, away from other sensitive electronic equipment.

The new RGC3s are available with line voltage ratings up to 600VAC, either DC or AC control, with optional system monitoring featuring electromechanical relay alarm and auxiliary output. Applications include HVAC, heat tracing, plastics or packaging, especially in situations where supply voltage is not available, or heat generated by the operation of an SSR has to be kept outside of the enclosure.

The specifications of the RGC3 include 3-phase, 3-pole switching solid state relays, universal panel and thru-wall mount heatsink, rated current: 48 AAC at 40°C per phase, rated voltage up to 600 VAC, control voltage of 5-32VDC or 20-275 VAC, optional system monitoring with alarms, supply voltage only needed on system monitoring type, high I2t rating of 15,000 A2s, 100kA SCCR if used with J-class fuse.
