| The product is intended to replace electromechanical contactors
when switching speeds are quite frequent. Their compact size, easy installation and
flexible configuration make these devices the ideal solution, especially when
retrofitting. The RGC Series of solid state relays and contactors are designed
for switching resistive as well as inductive loads and are UL Listed as Motor Controllers.
Reliable operation is ensured by means of the integrated overvoltage protection, high I2t
ratings and immunity conformance to industrial standards. Additionally, an innovative
thermal design improves the product lifetime. RGC2 and RGC3 Series devices are available in two frame sizes: 54mm or 70mm wide. RGC2, the 2-pole switching device, offers three current ratings of
25, 40 and 75AAC per pole at 40°C. While RGC3,
the 3-pole switching device, offers five current ratings ranging 20 to 65Amps per pole.
Optional monitoring feature offers possibility of detecting status of mains and load, as
well as internal RGC failures: open or short circuit and overheating. Alarming is
implemented with LED indication, electromechanical relay output and auxiliary transistor
output.
RGC Series solid state relays and contactors are a
ready-to-use, out-of-the-box solution, mainly targeting Plastics & Rubber, Packaging
& Wrapping, HVAC and Food & Beverage markets. Features include:
